{Virtual Coffee}

Hello there, Tuesday morning.

Hello coffee drinkers and tea drinkers and water drinkers.
This morning I am drinking Yogi Peppermint tea. Yum.
So pull up a chair and grab a cup, time for Virtual Coffee.

Wow, it seems like it has been a long time since last Tuesday.

A looooong week and a long weekend.

So if we were really meeting for coffee this morning.....

Well,  first of all, I would have begged my mother-in-law to keep the little one so we could have coffee this morning sans children, maybe even at the coffee shop.
After the week of hell I could use some grown-up time today...seriously.
Like three uninterrupted hours. Sigh. Wouldn't that be nice?

Oh-but since that's not gonna happen this will have to do, having tea from the comfort of my own couch.
So remember last week how my post pretty much consisted of me whining about my tooth and that whole thing? Well, after a long, rough week I was so ready for the weekend. And then Charlotte came down with the flu Friday night. The stomach flu. Lots and lots of throwing up. Lots of it.
In my bed. And everywhere. Ughhh. It was bad and this is one of those moments when I
 would gladly hand off the MOM BATON to someone else. Just for the cleaning up part though, not the rest. I feel so bad when the kids are sick like that, it is really pathetic and you feel so helpless.
Neither one of them has ever had the flu like that before and I hope they don't again anytime soon,
it was bad. Fingers crossed that the rest of us don't get it now.


So that was kind of my weekend.  We did get a little more snow over the weekend but yesterday was actually kind of nice...like 31* nice. I have to say, it actually felt kinda warm, which is really pretty sad.
 And the SUN was out for a good part of the day which means everything in this weather.
So how was your weekend? Did you do anything fun?

If we were really meeting for coffee this morning I would tell you
I am thinking of my friend Megan who is on her way to Haiti this morning for a Mission Trip.
We collected some items she needed over the weekend and I went to the store and bought a
whole bunch of suckers, blow-pops, gum and smarties for her to pass out to the kids.
I can't wait to hear about her trip and oh, someday I hope to go on a trip like that somewhere!

Well, I hope everyone is having a great week.
Thanks for joining me for coffee this morning and make sure to go have coffee with everyone else, too.
And now I am off to the grocery store because we are out of pretty much everything.
Like, everything. It's a sad sight, my pantry and fridge.
And why do I wait until it gets that bad anyway?
I hate when I do that.
