She dropped her head down and laid like this for several minutes.  Silly Milly!
 
I really do love the rain.  I guess that is why I loved living in Oregon.  The rain has never bothered me.  The only hard thing about it, is you have to juggle the mag so they don't get wet in your service bag... or zip it closed.  Well anyway water doesn't bother me. It is the same with snow. I loved horse back riding in the rain and in the snow, I miss that.  I just can't be out in it anymore. Plus Jehovah made it for a reason.  

My shoulder is killing me today. I must have slept on it wrong.  My headache never got any better yesterday, it just kept getting worse. I am pretty sure it is allergies.  Today I'm kind of plugged up.  I don't know what I got into.  

Lauren has been busy cleaning and reorganizing her room.  It is really taking shape.  She just ordered new curtains.   Then she has to save up money and she wants to get herself a new bed and bed frame.  It is a much more mature look she is doing.  It will take a few months for her to save up enough for the bed, ok, if she goes with the frame I love and I think she should have... it will take about 6 months.  verses 3 or 4 months.  I can't help but get excited every time I see the bed she likes, but I really need to work on that, because simple is better.  (just not as pretty)  I'm so bad!  

Steph just hasn't had time for anything these days.  She reduced her hours but she still is swamped and gone all the time.  She has been so tired if she sits down she falls asleep.  If i didn't know just how busy she is, I would think something is wrong with her.  But she really is gone all the time.  OH, and we think coffee makes her more tired.  How cruel is that?  She says she never gets a buzz from coffee.  And like the other day she was fine, then had a cup of coffee and it took all her strength to stay awake.  So she is going to go off coffee for awhile just to see if that is really what is happening.  We looked it up on line, if it was possible, and there are many reports on it.  it has something to do with, if you don't have any "reserves" left, the energy it is suppose to give you just poops you out.  So she is not a happy camper right now.  Well, she is dealing with it, but still, she is really disappointed.  Although it might not be that, there could be some other reason for why she can't stay awake.  But until she is done with DQ for the year, we won't really know.

As for Colton, he has been really working hard on studying everyday. If he isn't working he is studying.  He says he is feeling so much better.  It is good to see him making real progress.  It is a relief too.  He did a lot of studying for the meeting last night too.  

 EO just wasn't feeling good at all last night, Lauren's back was hurting her so much she couldn't even stand up straight. She was going to go to the meeting but EO told her to go to bed.  She was hunched over so far, there is no way she could have sat in a chair.  She has been trying to do her back exercises every day, but I think all the cleaning just aggravated it.  Steph has been dragging for days and she was so beat.  Yesterday I was running non stop to the bathroom.  I woke up this morning and it just continued.  The girls haven't even gotten up yet.  EO had to go to work this morning.  So four of us have been a mess, but Colton was doing great.
