Monday's Random Musings

Mrs. Nurse Boy here.

Time for my weekly, random thoughts. Unfortunately, my thoughts are almost always random. I just try to make some sense of them and put them into coherent thoughts every now and then. Scary, huh?

**This week we started the basketball season of '09 in the Nurse Boy Household. Good times, I tell you! First of all, Bruiser's games are at 8 or 9 AM each Saturday morning. Dimple's games are at 5 or 6 PM every Saturday evening. I am now wondering why I signed them both up? Didn't I like the carefree Saturdays of the past? My bed and I now have to part ways in the wee hours of the morning seven days a week.

**There is NOTHING like watching a group of Kindergartners playing basketball. It can do nothing but bring a smile to your face.

**My daughter is still coming off of the holiday high. You know, the one with grandparents, sweets, and no schedule? I have renamed her "Stink Pea."

**Nurse Boy returns to class this week. Can we please have a moment of silence?.............. We can keep doing this, right? Oh, I kid. I know we can, but it is challenging for all of us. Mostly Nurse Boy. He is an amazing man, don't let him tell you otherwise! And, let us not forget that it is God's strength and peace that encourages and protects this family as we respond to His calling on our lives.

**Nurse Boy and I have made a New Year's Resolution together. I won't bore you with all of the details, but WOW! is he competitive. Honestly, that has been more encouraging to me than I ever thought possible. Who knew? And, I love to watch him look in the mirror after a workout to see if his muscles developed more definition over the course of his 30 minutes on the treadmill. He reminds me of the commercial where the guy keeps working out and then weighing himself. Every few minutes. Throughout the workout. I searched for this commercial on YouTube with no luck. However, I will share a link to Brian Regan on working out. It had us in stitches! And, laughing HAS to burn more calories than frowning. It is my gift to you! Enjoy and happy Monday!
