In Bed

Many of you know of my dream to do everything from bed. There have been many times I have sincerely wished it. I keep telling Darin that we need a fridge, and one of those water cooler things that they have in offices. Then recently I told him we needed a third dishwasher--for our bathroom. It is amazing how much Darin and I eat up here. Our night stands and bathroom counters are covered with dishes. Really, I think the master bedroom suite needs to be rethought. So for a few days I have gotten my wish. I go to the bathroom (no bed pans, thank you), but otherwise I stay in bed. Tomorrow I have a huge day and am trying to rest up for it. I think the moral of the story is I need to be cautious of small staircases that entail 1-2 stairs. I need to take them as seriously as my stairs at home that go from the 2nd story to the main floor. I fell all the way down them last year three times, I am now very cautious and haven't fallen down them in a long time. Darin has put me on a physical therapy regime of writing my name in cursive in the air with my foot. I think it is helping. Aliese very thoughtfully volunteered to stay home. What a girl, willing to miss here least favorite part of life--school. So Gracie and Anna are on my bed with me and watching Wonder Pets. Possibly the cutest show since Little Bear. I love it. It is also snowing. It is beautiful. It's coming down pretty thick. Aliese opened up the blinds and told me I had to see it. I agreed, something not to be missed. I am so grateful for the beauty of nature. Well, I should really get back to school work. I am giving a speech tomorrow. I am so ready to graduate from speech. I have actually really enjoyed preparing for my speeches, because I am a nerd. I have given 3 speeches thus far. Informative--Making truffles. Argumentative--Parents should not spank. Refutation--Milk is bad for you. (that speech was done with a partner, my partner of course argued that milk is good for you.) My speech tomorrow is a persuasive, and I wanted to do it on depression, or music, something that means a lot to me, but that is just too hard. So I am doing a stupid speech that I think will be well received about college students and their stress level, and how to get rid of some of the stress. So you're probably tired of reading and I'm tired of typing. I love you all. Bye.
