Max is part cat. She’s very picky about which parts of her body you can touch, and will get up and walk away if you don’t respect her boundaries (no legs, feet, or tails). At the same time, she can be demanding of attention and assumes a regal position as she ‘lets’ you give her rubs and loves. She’s also …

Monday the boys and I took Sunshine to Williamsburg for FSY. It was held at the College of William and Mary, which was annoying to navigate since the campus had too many one way streets and very little parking. Other than that, it was an uneventful trip there and back. Tuesday I took the boys to music lessons and River …

Screenshot of a video I took of Ocean, which I still haven’t figured out how to upload on this site yet. I’m sure there’s an app for it, but I don’t have time to look into right- too many other things to do right now. Anyway, he’d come in to my room while I was laying in bed sick and …
Weekly Mileage #277 and Blood Pressure Problems
Monday I felt much better than I did on Sunday, though still not great. I went to Scouts in the evening to hand off the health forms for Scout camp. Tuesday I felt better, but the anesthesia from getting my loose filling fixed took me down a few notches in the afternoon. On the plus side, there wasn’t massive decay …

I was walking out to the car and I looked to the side and saw the view pictured above, which startled me. I walked closer and realized that it wasn’t a ghost, it was Buddy, Jeremy’s brother’s dog, just hanging out in the passenger seat of the RV, staring at passersby.
Weekly Mileage #276 and the Fourth of July
Monday was the Fourth of July and while I laid in bed all day, I managed to get up and eat ribs by the fire while the kids roasted marshmallows. Afterwards, we did some driveway fireworks and sparklers before I collapsed back in bed. Tuesday Jeremy took the kids to karate while I stayed home. I was super glad I …

Max is a funny dog with definite preferences. She likes to curl up on our beds, frequently on our pillows, like above (the crossed paws above are also cute). She’s also decided we make decent pillows. I woke up in the middle of the night because Max was laying on my feet, which I had to document, of course. While …
Weekly Mileage #275 and the Black Eye
Monday I was feeling better, though still not great. I was starting to feel antsy about stuff that needed to get done, but any time spent sitting up made me feel worse, so there’s definitely a ways to go before I’m back to normal. My symptoms have closely mirrored the symptoms I had after my shots, but I feel like …

15 minutes before it was time to leave for one of our karate graduations, I went to the hall bathroom to check on Ocean and see what was taking him so long. I walked in and immediately exclaimed “What happened?! It looks like like you killed someone!” Ocean, tearfully: “I didn’t!” Me: “I know, but did you have to make …
