Today I am home sick. I have the flu. I am woozy, sniffly, stuffed up, sneezy, you know the deal. I lounged around in bed until 10 which was a major luxury considering I've been getting up at a nauseating 5:40 every morning to get to school early. But then, do you think I can stop doing stuff? No. I am doing laundry, researching a potential spring break trip with Belinda (I'm not complaining about that), washing dishes, cleaning up, I plan on doing my Valentines for the kids for next week, I've been looking up books I need to order, and then, I will go to the hospital to visit my E.A. who is sick and to drop off a basket we made for her at school. Scary. Soon, if my brain is up for it, I'll share some crazy research to prove why my brain never shuts off. I'm serious, people have STUDIES that PROVE I'm not crazy. I'm just a girl. I don't know what that means. All I know is I can't even relax in the bubble bath because I keep thinking of stuff to do. Turn off brain, turn OFF.

Thank you Dad and Vicky for the beautiful flowers for my birthday. I didn't have a vase for them so for awhile they have been sitting in a measuring cup. Hopefully I can find something more appropriate soon, but they are sooooo pretty and they smell sooooo lovely (at least from what I can smell) and I luurve them. Thank you.
