Yes, it's St. Patrick's Day, so happy St. Patrick's Day. It's not really something I celebrate, but it's nice to give a friendly greeting for whatever reason. Both kids did remember to wear green today. I hated that part at school. Kids always seem to be looking for a reason to do something mean to each other.

My morning was productive. I went to the grocery store right after I dropped the kids off at school. When I got home I cleaned up the kitchen and then vacuumed the whole house, including moving furniture and stuff. Then, I cleaned off my dresser and night stand, which is a task, including dusting them. I was productive until about 10:30 a.m. and then took the rest of the day for me.

I had Arby's for lunch. I watched Prozac Nation that I had rented from Netflix and played My Sims Kingdom on Wii. And, I went outside for a walk since it was nice.

This evening we had Ham 'n Beans with corn bread for supper. Well, I should say Michael did. I started feeling really bad right before supper and could not eat. Caleb had corn bread, but doesn't like beans so he had pb&j with apples and carrots with ranch. Michaela didn't want corn bread so she had pb&j and a small bowl of ham 'n beans with her apples and carrots.

I'm feeling a little better, but not much. I ate some jello but that is all. I did force myself to go on a motorcycle ride with Michael tonight, but seeing as how it's been about 8 years since I've been on the darned thing, I was not going to not go. He also gave each of the kids a ride, too.

The weather was amazing today. I kept the windows open and the attic fan on all day. Having the sun come in through our big window in the living room was so great. I really hope we don't have much cold weather any more until next winter. I'm so ready for spring and summer. Right now, though it's about 8:40 pm and we still have the attic fan on!
