Hmmmm - gonna try this again.  My last post here was over 6 years ago!!!!

I've had 2 more kids, 2 jobs, 2 vans, and a new house since then.

Unemployed still.

Had a phone interview today, but I'm not sure it's a job I'd want.  It pays significantly less than my last job, but has a 35 minute commute.  Which is a big deal with this many kids, after school activities, and just overall responsibilities.

School canceled today.  Icy out...figures that school would be canceled the day I have a phone interview.  Fortunately my mom came over and entertained them in the basement.  The husband had to go to Redi-Med and stopped over afterwards.  He strained a muscle in his left wrist and has a 5lb weight limit.  Has physical therapy next week.  It makes me laugh because I strained a calf muscle and can't do jack about it.  I'm supposed to stay off it as much as possible.  (Yeah, that's not possible very often.)  I'm supposed to keep it elevated as much as possible.  (Again, not very often because as soon as I get it up, somebody needs something.)   And I'm supposed to ice it regularly.  (Mostly I just don't like ice!  I've been using Icy Hot patches and they are working about as well as I expect.)

Ran 5m yesterday.  But I've now gained 10lbs since I got laid off.  :(  Sucks because now I have over 20lbs to lose.  Really sucks because I've run almost 40 miles so far this month and keep gaining weight.  Apparently running makes me hungry!
