Cooped Up

We have been cooped up in our house since last Friday and we are going a little stir crazy. After last weekend's rain, Monday's snow, and our acquisition of the croup, life has gone on indoors. To add to all this, Craig's car would not start on Tuesday so even if we could and wanted to go out, we are without our minivan. For a brief second, I considered going out in our backyard, but before we do I want us to be a little less croupy. Also the ice hasn't completely melted back there so accidents are bound to arise if we are not careful.

Our new household happening??? Gate climbing!!!! I have had to remove gates from around our fireplace because we were scaling it to get over to the other side. Jake in particular can scale any gate now so he is everywhere. Deep breath... I think I will need an apple martini this evening.

I braved the backyard with the boys this morning and it was a wet mess. They had to be bathed and it was a bit exhausting but worth it. I think they will nap well. BTW my degree is not in education but I taught 2 years at a small private middle school and LOVED it. I want to go back to that rather than social work which is my actual field.

Oops, I meant to say I hope that you are all feeling better soon! I know you must be exhausted.
