Spring has sprung !!

I need to get a few pictures posted on here of the bathroom. It's coming along well. The last few day the joints have been taped and mudded, the tile on the floor grouted, and the base coat of paint applied.

Saturday the sun was finally out and the kids were out jumping on the trampoline most of the morning and then in the afternoon we went with some friends/family to Skateland in Olympia and skated for 1.5 hours. I was so happy to be able to skate and enjoy myself and not be in pain or have lack of energy. The kids were a different story though...... Poor kids jumped on the trampoline all morning then skated at Skateland for their first time. Well, needless to say, they were feeling it the next day. They were walking around like I used to, sore and complaining. But their soreness was from lactic acid (and blisters) and working out their legs a lot, not from an illness.

Sunday we went up to Kingston to visit Dad and Malia. Dad has his new hip in and is doing well, walking around with the cane the kids and I bought him over the summer, and he looks well.

Tonight we plan on putting on another coat of base paint, since the first coat is being sucked into the drywall. Then tomorrow paint the color onto the walls. I'll keep the color a secret for now, and I'll have to post finished pictures when I'm done. I'm so excited to have a nice bathroom in the house! The only downfall is it makes the rest of the house look like it's in worse shape.

I'm doing another round of anti-viral meds. It seems that about two weeks after I stop the meds, I feel some of the symptoms creep back in (although slightly, but I need to stay on top of things). So I'll do another round and then take a low dosage for awhile and see if that's enough to supress the virus.

I bought some seeds for the garden and I'm ansy to get things growing, but we're not done with this freezing weather yet! It's ok, I have other projects to work on. : )

Happy Monday and have a great week!!
