I'm Bored

yes, i'm bored. so that should be a tip off to you about the tenor of this post. it isn't going to be that interesting. i sometimes get bored on sundays now that we don't have family get-togethers anymore. today is probably exacerbated because i didn't go to church. i went to the doctors with nat and the bamboni and from there to the pharmacy--that was the extent of my contact with the outside world. interestingly enough we had no wait at the clinic and even got to see our regular doctor. when does that ever happen i ask you? nat has an ear infection. she has had it since thursday which is past the 3 day limit for viral infections. before that she had a fever and so she missed a whole week of school. luckily elizabeth is fine. other than her moluscum contagiosum which is supposed to go away on its own. the problem is, i have to be careful not to spread when i apply sunscreen. i have the flu which is one reason why it was i that stayed home with the sickly nat. i'm sure the flu is affecting my lethargy too. if only i had a good book to sink into...i already read twilight again (ok for the 3rd time) and the next book is just too blah for me to want to get into it right now. i'll read it when i'm nursing or maybe i'll only read the parts that edward is in. and i read north and south online and then watched it again on youtube already (what can i say? i have an obssessive personality) we didn't have sister movie night because i was sick and we didn't have it last week because sarah was sick. i crave a good story to lose myself in right now. is that so much to ask? since i can't just sleep away my discomfort?

on other topics, here are some tidbits about elizabeth. she is just growing in her top two teeth and has developed a new smile where you can only see her new teeth. she says hi and waves now too. she crawls around scavenging for any crumbs she might be able to pick up off the floor. it is kind of like having a puppy. when she finds something you can tell because then she makes a happy humming sound as she crawls with it in her mouth. the funny thing is she will do that for a long time with just something little like a grain of rice in her mouth and never swallow it.

ok. now that i've spread boredness around a little, i'm going to put you all out of my misery and stop rambling.
