What day is it?

I think it is Saturday. The days are all running together. With working form home and all the time off, I feel like it doesn't matter what day is what...time is just running together and...I kinda like it. :)

Gosh, how nice it would be not to have to go work every day. I could wake up, putter around, cook, clean, work out, play with Autumn and my stress level would be so much lower. I always realize that when I have time off. Work is a pretty stressful place. I kind thrive on making order out of stress though so I guess that is why I never have actually quit. My latest motto is "peace through chaos". After I made that up in my head, I read it somewhere about some kind of religion or something. It's true though...everything is peace through chaos. Work, parenthood, marriage, weather, health, our bodies, life!-everything...just over and over again-peace through chaos. You get the peace from going through the chaos and surviving it.

Anyway...

Autumn, Erik and I went bowling today! Omg, it was so much fun! Yesterday, we all went hiking in the snow down the street at a former campground. We really should have brought snowshoes. It was about 2 ft deep and hard to walk in. Again, SO much fun. Note, I am would not be an ideal person to have on your team if you were to choose teams for snow ball fighting. My aim is no good. Erik...well, he'd be good to have on your team.

Autumn is better but has a junky cough when she runs or exerts herself too much. She's been staying up late, waking up early and laughing alot. Today she filled some thing out that asked what her favorite thing about Christmas was. She wrote "being able to spend time together." I am truly loving having "our" daughter back. She gets so diluted with all the kids and crap from school.

We are watching Michelle's dog, Zion. He is such a good dog. He greeted Erik with a huge poo accident the other day but he is all better now. He's an old dog and doesn't put up with Roman's antics much. Roman doesn't put up with another dog much either but they will survive.

Well, off to the couch to chill with Autumn. I've been researching camping places on line forever now. I don't do NY resolutions but am going to make it a goal to go camping more this year-starting in April.

Peace!
