While I’m really tired and absolutely not feeling well, the boys and I managed to get a few things done this afternoon. 

The first thing checked off the list was doing laundry so the boys have clothes for school tomorrow. The second thing was fixing the passenger side rear window that had been stuck a few inches down and duct taped shut to keep the weather out. 

The biggest thing we did was remove the old indoor/outdoor carpet from our front porch. 

It’s been peeling up and was frankly, in horrible shape. We didn’t want anyone tripping when coming up the steps or snagging their foot in the huge hole by the front door. 

It was a fairly easy task but an extremely messy one as well. 

We did manage to complete this much need project before we lost day light. All the boys helped and while the floor still needs finished, that’s on the agenda for the Spring. 

Unfortunately, my throat is raw and I feel worse than I did earlier. There’s something going around and it seems like it may have found a new home. 

I only have one task left that will take me away from the house today and that’s to pick up pizza for the boy’s school lunches. Aside from that, making dinner, sorting laundry and making the boy’s take baths, I think I’m about done for the day…. 

Please let me sleep tonight…  Fingers crossed..  ☺
