Sick Family

Kathleen spent most of the day complaining of a "twisted colon", attributing it to doing crunches after running on the ellipitcal. It was bad enough that she wasn't going to eat with the rest of the family but felt better after taking a shower so we went out for dinner at Chili's. Right when they delivered the food to us Braden vomited all over the table, chair and me! So Kathleen took him out to the car and let the kids and I finish our meal. I guess that's the real reason Kathleen's stomach hurt, and come to think of it, my stomach hurt Thursday. I thought it was just upset from a crushing headache I had all day, but I guess I had it too. Bottom line is Braden vomited once more in the middle of the night and no one else has. Everyone has recovered and is fine today! So now we are having my family over today to celebrate our birthdays. I, my mom and my sister's husband all have birthdays in January so we just celebrate them all at the same time. I'll be 39 on Tuesday. I'm relieved I still have a year left in my 30's. It's depressing knowing that I'm on the wrong side of my youth so I have made a commitment to be in the best shape of my life by the time I am 40. I actually made this commitment this time last year but the herniated disc has delayed my plan. Still thinking about surgery and probably will do it so I can do the things I enjoy like basketball, softball and weightlifting. Please pray for me that things turn out positive. At the very least I want to be involved in coaching my kids teams and being active into my old age. I'm not the type that will ever be sendentary. If I am healthy, I still plan on playing sports for as long as I can - hopefully into my 60's!
Karly scored 6 pts today in her basketball game. She is a pretty good basketball player and I am looking forward to when she can play for her school next year. See ya!
