Quick Visit to SK

Last weekend the kids and I took a quick trip to Regina.  We left Friday after school and drove through the typical winter road conditions of snow and more snow.  It wasn't an easy drive and I was so grateful when we finally arrived as I was exhausted and not feeling well.  It made for a long trip with my throat being so sore that I couldn't even swallow, let alone sing to the songs on the radio as I drove.  Mom helped me get the kids to bed, well sort of - after a pillow fight.  I followed them to bed shortly after and was thankful to be able to sleep in the next morning.  I was feeling lousy all weekend with a bit of a reprieve on Monday morning, but then the drive back did me in again.  My body always seems to know when a holiday is approaching and thinks it is the perfect time to be sick.  Despite not feeling great all weekend, it was nice to visit with everyone.  Together we all played lots of games and watched some movies while snuggled on the couch.  Dad even sat and watched a portion of "The Sound of Music" with us.  It was disappointing not being able to sing along, so I have it on as I write this post so I can sing my heart out.  It was a quick visit but good to see everyone.
