I'm back in the game!!  The little kids are getting better.  They both slept through the whole night!!! That hasn't happened in months, but my 7 yr. woke up.  Will I ever get a full night sleep?  I'm not holding my breath. :)  Now my older kids are sick, but they are easier to handle.

Great workout!  It felt really good to be back at it.  My shine was hurting while I road the bike though.  I'm not sure why.  Maybe it has to do with how i place my foot on the peddle(I don't know).  I am always glad I get up and workout in the morning but it sure kicks my butt at around 1.  I hope I can get a little nap.  We will see.

You will get a full night's sleep some day. Kids do grow up.

Good job on the workout this morning. I hope you get a nap this afternoon.

Hop back into bed when the little boys go down! I'm going to pool run tomorrow at 5:15 if you want to come!

I hope you get a nap today too! Bummer that you're not running SL. Take care of yourself. Great workout today! I too wonder if there will ever be a time when I get a full night's sleep. I hope your kids get feeling better and sleeping better very soon!

Toby- I am planning on it for tomorrow. Thanks for supporting me! Your the best!

And no I didn't get my nap. Oh well, early to bed tonight.
