I start monday

8 am.

However, I'm quite sick today. Boo. Taking all of my good vitamins/elderberry/oscillo, and hopefully with a lot of good rest I'll feel OK on Monday.

Good luck! :-)

Heather, if you are still looking for clothes, check out your nearest Gap. I picked up some shirts at mine yesterday for 2.39-2.99/each.

Hope you feel better soon!

Totally taking it easy this weekend. Bad part is my DH is probably getting it, too. He gets to start being the SAHP while being sick for the first time. Poor guy.

I'm feeling somewhat better today. My fever broke in the middle of the night, and so far hasn't been back. Thankfully.

This is the first and great commandment.
And, the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments have all the law and the prophets."
