Uhnnnn

My head is pounding. Sinus pain most likely. Damn kids are walking Petri dishes I tell ya. Love 'em to death but they are going to love me to death first! Just a little bit of a sore throat and some post nasal drip right now, let's hope I can nip this in the bud.

On the way home last night, I stopped off at Emerald Karate and picked up a pamphlet. The Master who operates the facility is a state certified elementary teacher and published author on the form of martial arts known as Moo Duk Kwan Tang Soo Do. Quite a mouthful, but it's essentially Korean in origin. The Mrs seems to be ok with it after I discussed it with her. I'm thinking that we are going to abandon the swim lessons and I'll teach them Tues/Thurs. They are at a point where they can nearly handle being in the pool with-out a float so I don't see how they could gain much more from the current curriculum. Just a bit more time in the pool and they'll be full fledged fish.

On dry land, Jake has become accustomed to spending time in our bed. Last night, he got up 3 times and came to our room with some fairly creative reasons for abandoning his own. We sent him back and he remained there till 0530 when he traipsed in and planted himself by my side. Little punk woke the dogs in the process and they started to make a ruckus. That required the Mrs and I to go attend to Alexis. You see, we switched her to underwear at nights and she had a little accident yesterday morning. We wanted to avoid doing another round of laundry so it was expedient for us to escort her to the facilities. She'll get a hang of it soon enough, sleeping in a wet bed is not one of the most comfortable activities.

Final note, go on over to Maria's blog (intueri)and read the treatise she put down about MS. Top Shelf author and quite smart to boot. That, and she made a mention of me so I feel compelled to compensate her with hits from thoughtful readers. Quid Pro Quo, you know.
