not so interesting update

I've been really bad at blogging lately. Maybe it's because nothing too exciting is going on right now.
@ Work: I've been busy at school since it's end of marking period time as well as time to start thinking about where I want my students placed next year. It's crazy to have so much control over what kind of classroom they go into. But, I guess besides their parents I know more about them than anyone else. Heck, for some of my kids I think I know more than their parents. There's the typical cold going around and a nasty stomach bug. Let's keep those germs at school kiddos.
@ Home: Are you sure there wasn't a tornado on my street lately? With all the strong winds outside lately things are strewn all over the yard and every time we put them back they end up in another corner. It just makes me want to redecorate (aka landscape) the back yard. The inside isn't looking so great either. The dining room table has become a dumping ground for everything, yes, even the Christmas lights we took down weeks ago that haven't made it into the attic. It's really time to clean that room up. Aidan's awesome at cleaning up after himself, now if only we could get control of the clutter {that word makes me shudder}.
Sean: He'll be 30 on April 7th this year!!! CRAZY!!! He's been busy with work lately but has been the best daddy and husband ever getting up with Aidan the few nights he hasn't slept through the night in the past two weeks. He made dinner last night and took care of Aidan tonight while I went to Pilates. Love him.
Aidan: Wow. What can I say? He's awesome. He cleans up after himself just about all of the time now. If he gets some books out he'll put them nicely back on the shelf before running off to get into something else. Many times he'll clean up without even being asked. I guess this is because from the time he was walking I would have him help clean up with me so he knew that his toys had a place other than the middle of the floor. He's just awesome. I can't believe it's time to start planning his 2nd birthday party this year. I'd love to go more low-key this year, but I think Sean will want to do it up big, as usual. Love that kid, so much.
Me: I'm doing well. I've been really tired lately and I'm not sure why. Maybe it's my body going through withdrawal since I haven't been up all hours of the night aimlessly surfing the internet. I literally have been asleep by 9pm at least twice this week. I've been so exhausted I can't even remember what time I've been asleep, but I know it's been early and at least once I was asleep before Aidan. I really want to drop a few {5-10} pounds before summer comes, but can't seem to get the motivation to eat well and work out more than a couple of times a week. I love going to Pilates every Thursday night, but the rest of the week I find it hard to do anything. Sean got me Wii Active and it's fun, but I can't seem to get into a routine of doing it. I'd love to do it early in the morning before work, but I just love to sleep and love my bed and can't get up until I absolutely have to. Maybe once it's warmer out I can start walking with Aidan again. I also know that I need to eat better. Damn those Girl Scout cookies too. If anyone comes across a secret for losing that ring around my middle section PLEASE let me know! Thanks.
Toby: Just went for his annual vet visit. He lost weight, which is sort of a surprise but not really. Not only is he getting more snacks thanks to Aidan, he's also got a new workout routine thanks to Aidan. That poor dog gets chased more often then he'd like. He's not even safe on the couch since Aidan got smart and now lifts his toy lawn mower onto the couch to scare off Toby. He's doing well though. He's lost a little vision but it's hard to tell how much. He's always had one bad eye, but now the other is getting some calcification as well. He goes in on Monday to be put under for a dental cleaning. While he's in they're going to remove a small bump from his side as well. (might be something from when I found a tick on him) Wouldn't we all love to be put asleep for dental work? I know someone who would. Anyway, hopefully it doesn't cost an arm and a leg and all goes well for Toby. You know, I keep telling this dog he's going to live forever, and I only wish it was true because we can't imagine life without him. To think of the day that Aidan asks where the dog is and I have to tell him he's not coming back just makes me sad.

My thoughts on life right now:
This was a LOOOOOOONG post, but now you're caught up on things you didn't even care about.
I'm so happy tomorrow is Friday.
I enjoy going to pilates, but really miss Aidan during the short time I'm gone.
I love my life.
