Did you know I'm hot? As in temperature. Yeah, it's like July weather here. I am not use to it. I have been meaning to do a post all week but Jon got the stomach flu and I got a head cold and then there are still 3 kids to take care of. And a house to still clean. Plus church calling stuff. All things that when Mom and Dad are sick don't really get done. It looks like our house has been through a tornado. I'm not kidding. I should take a picture but I'm too embarrassed. :) I am feeling better but now it is so hot in the house that I have no energy to clean. We don't have AC and the house is like a furnace. Alright, I'll stop complaining. That's not why you want to read this blog anyway.
What else should I talk about? Lucas and Micah are enjoying school. Lucas is a homebody so he'd prefer to stay home all the time. But he is adjusting to 2nd grade just fine. Micah is loving kindergarten and I really am happy it's full day because he needs something to do constantly it seems. When he is home he and David seem to fight constantly over random toys or pretty much anything. David is getting more stubborn and more independent. He destroys everything and makes a mess of anything he can get his hands on. Micah and Lucas were never like this so David is making up for them when it comes to destruction.
Jon was home all week with the stomach flu. I have never seen him that sick and he doesn't remember ever getting that sick since he was a child. He still is recovering. He did work from home on Thursday and Friday for about 9 hours each day. His office is incredibly busy and it seems like there are just not enough people to get everything done. Although, I don't think the partners care much. Big Law - gotta love it.
I think the house we live in makes me claustrophobic. If only I could raise the ceilings and paint the wood paneling white. Currently, the walls are brown and the carpets are brown and the ceiling is low. Oh, yeah, I forgot. I'll stop complaining now:)
I guess I should just finish this post off. I will have to do a happier more uplifting post later. I really am happy. Just hot. I love Popsicles!

Deanna,
I've been wondering how you are doing in the heat that has hit Los Angeles. I told myself you had to have air conditioning so it couldn’t be that bad. Then today I finally found the link to “Shoobies in the Soup” buried somewhere deep in my computer and was able to read this blog.
How sorry I am to know of your discomfort. Even moderate heat is hard at your stage of pregnancy. I can’t even imagine 113 degrees which Drudge told me you had today. And I was so sorry to learn recently how very sick Jon has been.
Having said that, I have to tell you that I just stopped everything else I am doing and read every blog you've written since you were here in July. I’ve loved them all from school starting, to soccer, daily day, pregnancy, travels and more but I especially appreciated “Our weekend away.”
In fact, I've been laughing out loud so much that my now my stomach hurts and I have tears in my eyes. Sounds painful, I know, but it is called a belly laugh and I don’t when or if I have ever had one quite like that, sitting here all alone at my computer.
I love your sense of humor and your joy in life. I love it that you love each other and your children. I love it when you share a snapshot of your life with those who love you...
Including me! Thank you for being who and what you are.
Sure hope the weather breaks soon so you can get some relief from the heat!
Love you,
Sheila
