Off

Today was one of those weird days where nothing falls into place.  The kids were off school for President's Day, and we had tossed around some ideas of what to do, but hadn't really come up with anything.  Then, everybody slept in til 10:00 this morning.  When we finally got up, all of us got up feeling....weird.  Dead tired, dizzy, and kind of sore all over.  I don't know if it was a virus or what, but it took everybody until about noon to feel much like moving.  I had a bunch of stuff I should have gotten done today, and did none of it, which is going to make for a long rest of the week.  Me and Mitch had a tentative lunch date set up, but he wound up spending hours and hours at the gym, so that never happened.  Will and Audrey  tried to make some plans with friends, but nothing ever materialized out of that either.  We finally decided to go see the second Hobbit movie, after a bunch of  hemming and hawing around, and debating other options.  Olivia was off at  a friend's house for the day though, so we decided to seize the moment and go.

It was a great movie.  So much better than the first one.  I would highly recommend it.

Then, since I hadn't made it to the grocery store, we hit up Chick-Fil-A for dinner, and Mitch met us there. He was also more than happy to accompany us to the frozen yogurt place, which was our family celebration for finishing the Book of Mormon last week.  We were supposed to finish by New Year's, but you know, better late than never.

Wow, this is a really depressing post.  Let me try that again.

Today the kids were off school, and we had no pressing plans, so we got to spend the whole day together, hanging out and being lazy!  We saw an awesome movie, made possible by Olivia's all day playdate at the neighbors!  And then, since we didn't go grocery shopping today, we got to go out to dinner! And Mitch came!  And then we went for frozen yogurt to celebrate our success in family scripture study!  It was a GREAT day off!!

Yep, that's better.
