Sicky!

Today I am miserable. I hate being sick during the summer but I am! I didn't sleep well last night because I was up blowing my nose or trying to pop my ear or thinking how nice it would be to swallow without a sore throat. This started on Sunday and I wondered at first if it had anything to do with the amazing sunburn I got on Saturday but then it wouldn't go away Monday and so I started to take it as allergies due to the spring but medicine didn't help clear my nose away at all and so now I know that I am sick. I don't want to eat because it hurts, I don't want to swallow because it reminds me of my ear and I don't have that much energy which is why I am skipping my gym classes today. i am okay with that though.

On another note I have some great news! We have had my green car and our red car. During February sometime the green car stopped working. We had no idea why it stopped working but it did. The lights would turn on and the car would turn over but it would never catch. We chalked it up to some mysterious reason that Chris and i would never figure out without the help of someone who knew cars. Jennifer and crew are coming next Monday and we are going to let them borrow a car while they are here so that they don't have to worry about renting a car and so we had to get the green car fixed. Now mind you, it has been sitting in the best spot in our parking lot for over 2 months. We have no idea what is wrong with it and we don't want to pay the towing fee to get it to a mechanic but we will have to. I figured that we should at least try jumping the car to see if maybe it would work now so our friend Tyler came over with his cables and jumped it for us. And voila! It worked! It was amazing! We had no idea that the battery was dead the whole time. We figured it was something else since the car would turn on but not start. The best part is that we now have a car for Jennifer and kids to use as well as a spare and we potentially saved hundreds of dollars by not taking it to a shop to get fixed.

And with that happy story I will close. I still don't feel tip top after the 15 minutes it took me to write that so I am going to go lay down so my ear stops telling me that it wants to pop even though it won't. Have a great week!

Sarah, some nice Alaska air might make you feel better what do you think?
Are you coming up here or what? IT would be nice to see you and so you can meet Catheryn.

It was so nice to be able to come and visit you and Chris! I'm glad you are feeling better than you were when you wrote this post! I posted some pics of you on our blog, so check them out. And thanks so much for the use of your car while we were down there- did you find the hidden stash between the seats?
