1. Thanks Mom, for the weekend. For the food, keeping an eye on the kids, the food, helping me make Anna's graduation invites (yes, yes...Anna helped too), the bathtub the kids cleaned up in, the massage on my neck and shoulders. They still hurt, by the way. I need another one.
2. A belated thank you to my brother Jimmy for watching OJ when he was sick a week ago Friday. We appreciate you driving up here to be with him. You and the girls are always so helpful and we are grateful.
3. Is anyone else tired?
4. For those uninterested in basketball, I have no words. This is THE best time in all the world. March Madness, 64 teams (I exclude the 4 teams that get to play into the final 4 spots...I'm not adjusting to that change yet)....6 games....1 champion. And what's so great for me? Every single year, my team is a legitimate contender. Every.single.year. It's wonderful being a Jayhawk.
5. After OJ had the flu last week, he developed an ear infection. I am through treating his ear infections with amoxicillin or any other antibiotic. We will treat his pain with over the counter relief, and wait it out. 80% clear up on their own, and so will his. The one he was diagnosed with Tuesday night? Clear. He's good to go!
6. I know we mention Evelyn's hair around here. A lot. But for as pretty as it is, no mom should have to worry about anything other than keeping a wet, wiggly baby upright in the bathtub. Not only do I have to ensure she doesn't tumble over, I have to try and scrub those long curly locks and get tangles out. It's truly tasking.
7. I love my Hondas. Anyone see the Honda commercials with the "really big" buttons? Makes me laugh. Except for the hair. Ewww.
8. Another winter storm in our area. It makes me sick. Literally.
9. I know this might sound bizarre, but when I see those little Smart cars, I want to run up to them and kick them over. Or at least see if I can karate kick them over onto their side. Is that the SUV driver in me? Maybe.
10. *YAWN* I'll be fighting to get through this day, this winter weather, so that we can move onto more important things. St. Patrick's Day, basketball, another weekend.
Enjoy your Monday!

double-edged sword when your team is a contender every year, no? You get ridiculed when your team doesn't make the Final Four...but you get to shout from the mountaintops if they do. I LOVE march madness. Seriously.
And the weather? I have no words...that I can type...about how I feel about it. you wouldn't want to publish them. ugh.
Yay for another weekend...bring it on (although I will thoroughly enjoy this week of "reprieve" while a certain someone is out of the office :) )
Definitely March Madness in this house too!!! I wish we weren't the last #1 playing Friday...
Agreed, It's fun to be a Jayhawk this time of year!
4. I was pleasantly surprised with our 5 seed. Perhaps getting beat all season isn't a horrible thing after all (at least not when you are playing decent teams!)
5. Good for you! It's because 80% of ear 'infections' aren't infections at all - they are just a build up of fluid in the middle ear (the space behind the ear drum) because of a blocked eustachian tube (tube that drains from the middle ear to the back of your throat just like your nose does). The pain comes from the fluid pushing on the ear drum. When the eustachian tube clears, the fluid drains and voila! no more pain. Unless you go a few days with consistent pain even with pain meds or get a high fever, there probably isn't an infection at all!
6. But her hair is so awesome! The tasking has to be worth it!
8. Please be sure the snow turns into rain before it gets here once again. Please!
9. Me too!!!!
10. On Thursday, I am going to use the argument that blue + yellow = green, therefore wearing my WVU sweatshirt will be perfectly acceptable.
NCAA is the only sports I don't hate my husband getting obsessed about because I actually like watching it too! I'm pretty bummed my team (USU) got gipped in their seed, but crossing my fingers they can pull off an upset! :)
I love your comment about smart cars..because really their like tin cans, I would never want to drive one!
You just reminded me to ask hubby if he submitted our bracket to the office pool.
Gator Grrrowl!
p.s. I wish I could sprinkle wellness dust over your house and you'd have no more sick children for the remainder of the year
We love NCAA basketball at our house (obviously since LW is a b ball official). We're taking Friday off of work to watch games all day and night. Can't wait.
Go Ohio State Buckeyes!!!!!!
ugh, I'm so sick of this weather too. I want spring to be here NOW!
:( the basketball "thing" knocked my show off the air last night... "Mike and Molly"...
:) I remember when my BB team won it all... in 1982. LOL!
