These Past Few Days...

What's the Word June
Today's word is: ( uvula ) 

• I'm not sure if you know this or not, but we've been under the influence of a mega angry Tropical Storm named Debby. For us, it means winds, lots and lots of rain and bored kids that want to go swimming.
• I have been trying to get rid of this stupid sickness my husband gave me. At one point, my uvula was so enlarged, it was touching the back of my tongue! If I still had tonsils, I'm sure it would have been much worse. At this stage of the sickness, I'm left with a lingering cough, a slight sore throat (probably from coughing) and a little fever from time to time. And it's freakin' annoying me. The impatient part of me wants to get back to my usual exercise and active routine, but I know my body needs whatever rest I can fit in.
• All the rain has brought out the CUTEST curls in Zoie Boie's hair. I am loving it!
• We went to the movies yesterday with some friends of ours and saw Brave. My kids were so excited to see it, and if you ask them now, they will tell you they liked the movie. But if you ask them if they want to see it again, their answer... NOO!!!! This movie scared the bejeezus out of them. Which is a hard thing to do with my kids. They've seen every age appropriate Tim Burton film and have never gotten scared. In fact, they adore Tim Burton films. I suppose this was a different type of scary, in Tim Burton's films the fear isn't as intense because it's mostly mythical. Brave had a very scary Bear scene and it terrified them! Bears are very real and very not mythical.
• Today, we ventured out and made it to the post office, the library, the grocery store and back all before it started to rain again. We are AWESOME!
• At the library, there were millions of teeny frogs hopping all around. They were so cute.
