Sick... Again

So what did I do this weekend? Well I went to a wedding, baptism & baby blessing. I got to go laser tagging with JUST the fam- SOOOO much fun! I want to buy those guns & do this in my neighborhood! I also took pictures of some adorable little ones.... but after a whole weekend of running around in the freezing cold on very little sleep, it's no wonder I woke up several times last night with a sore throat. Luckily, my students can watch movies today & just work on projects!

But what should I do while Evan goes off to play with his friends tonight?

A) Watch a chick flick
B) Read a good book
C) Write a good book
D) Paint--- probably won't happen- requires too much energy
E) Wallow in Self Pity
F) Stare into the Abyss
G) Solve world hunger- Tell NO One!
H) Jazzercise
I) Dinner With Me
J) Go to Bed Early...

Hmmm, :) So many options. I wanted to go visit my mom so I wouldn't get lonely but now I'm stuck at home & into forced relaxation. This'll probably be great for me since I've been so stressed out lately at work. Now I can be a couch potato & no one can say anything about it! :)

Anway, What do you think I should do???

Need? Want really bad? Same thing...

Ok. These dogs are ridiculously expensive. But if anyone out there knows where I can get one for the price of a normal golden retriever... that'd be awesome. You can't show them so they really shouldn't be this expensive. I have grown up with golden retrievers. They are highly intelligent & very love-able dogs. Yes, they shed & yes, they are HUGE. BUT....I've been looking at dogs for the past year & I still keep coming back to this breed. They make excellent family pets, do great with kids, protect you when your hubby's out for the night, they don't bark a lot like other dogs, and if you keep them groomed their shedding can be kept under control. They also can live outside & be perfectly happy. You can play frisbee with them & go running with them. They also will come sleep by you & watch movies with you. They are awesome dogs.

I have also grown up with dachsunds.... little yippy annoying, very cute, but annoying, not well behaved dogs. Labs are too jumpy. I've had two. I just don't like little wimpy wiggly creatures. Call me weird but that's how I feel. Anyway. Just thought I'd share...
