Hi! Or should I say it with a flat, "Hi." Not gonna lie, zee blog has not been high on my list of priorities. I've experienced everything that I experience EVERY year (I looked back last year, so I can confirm) right after Christmas--post holiday blues, I guess. I gave so much during Christmastime mentally, physically, financially....and it comes and goes so fast, and frankly, I'm a bit burnt out. It's not supposed to be over! I still want Christmas music! We still want to watch Christmas movies! We were pretty much HOME for the entire Christmas break, flu free this year, thank God, and I can do that so easily--get away from EVERYTHING. I enjoy it. Mmmm, surrounded by the lights of the Christmas tree watching classic holiday shows. But then when the regular schedule ALL comes back along with OTHER events (birthdays, baby showerS), I find it really difficult to jump back in. Travis was asking me about an upcoming baby shower, and I was like, "I do not want to deal with this right now. I just need some time to breathe." I think I almost feel a bit vulnerable and like I need to toughen up some after being home with only the family for so long. Craziness. I've also just not felt like blogging. I don't really have anything revolutionary to say, and the things that are on my mind are just not blog material. All online opening up has just not been an interest of mine lately. I am well aware that I do NOT have 600+ friends, even though facebook tells me otherwise. I couldn't tell you who 3/4 of them are, and I find that weird. I've wanted to keep my personal thoughts personal. I feel a little bad about that because I realize that when I do open up, it actually makes a difference. People, who I had no clue even knew I had a blog, have commented on things that I've written. They were calling me and Travis, which was really cool. I know I personally love it when people "go there" in their writing. It's touching. It draws you in. But I just am not in that mindset right now. I'm sure that will change once I get back in the swing of things a little more.
So...what's going on. Um let's see...I've had not one but two ulcers in my mouth in one week. MISERY. #whyyesidohaveherpes. So Dr Travis swore if I swished some mouth wash that they would go away. The first one was already almost healed when he said this, but the second had come up and overrode that. The sore itself was so painful that I couldn't bear the thought of putting that strong stuff IN that wound. But the other is on the TOP, and...well food hurts. I'd like to eat. I'm funny that way. So to see if he was right, I did that this morning. Kind of like pouring bleach in an open wound. Hope that works.
Um...Jaggar has a cold. I would much rather be the one with it because he is miserable. And whiny. EXTREMELY. WHINY. My patience runs low with excessive whining. His eyes and nose are constantly running, and it (rightfully) drives him nuts. Poor baby. So I got this toy out that Chrissie gave him for Christmas that we hadn't even opened. This will most likely last through the weekend, at best. SANDBOX. My kitchen reminds me of the back door at the beach condo. Sand everywhere. But for today, I let him have fun with it.

That's been his expression most of the day for the past few days.
OH! Have you wondered how Mr Resolution himself has been faring so far on this....5th day of the new year? Well, here ya go. (I believe this was actually on the THIRD day of the new year...not that it matters.) Let's see if I can recall from that video....more "grilled foods." Yes, I can see that by this meal of fried chicken, fried chicken, and fried chicken with a side of fried chicken. On the fast track to fitness, I tell ya!

Thank you, Bill. I will try to keep that in mind on weeks like this.
