Symptoms

As of right now I am thinking that the likelihood of me getting my tonsils out is getting greater by the minute. Why? Well, here are my symptoms:
Swollen lymph node- check
Sore Throat- check
Exhaustion- check

So, what am I doing about it? Taking vitamin A and going for a run. I prefer to live in denial!

babies, babies, and more babies...

What is it about pregnancy that makes every girl around the pregnant person automatically soon to be pregnant too? Two of my co-workers have announced their pregnancies in the last month, and I can’t even count the number of, “Are you next?” or “I think something is in the water, you better be careful!” I have gotten this week. It’s as if pregnancy is something you can “catch”. Most of the people that are making the comments don’t really even know me that well and I think people don’t realize how personal they are getting with their questions and comments. It’s not that we don’t want to ever have kids or that we never are, we just aren’t pregnant right now and probably won’t be in the near future, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Recipes

Do any of you ever feel like you can never have enough recipes? I hope I am not the only recipe crazed person who is on the never ending search for the next thing to cook for dinner. Who wants to become one of those wives that cooks the same thing every two weeks without fail? So to help me and you out there is a great blog called Smitten Kitchen that looks like it could have some delicious recipes (although I haven't tried any of them yet, I just found it yesterday). Let me know if you see any you think I should try!

Normal

Here are the top 5 reasons I am feeling somewhat back to “normal”:

#1 I can officially run three miles again and for a little motivation and inspiration, bought some new running shoes!

#2 The boy is no longer taking me to work; because he bought me a new car…what do you think?

#3 I am officially off antibiotics and don’t have any doctors appointments scheduled, at all.

#4 I am actually cooking dinner again, although nothing too exciting or I would share the recipe.

#5 I have not fallen asleep on the couch before 8:00 in over a week, not that I haven’t wanted to!
