life has been rather uneventful around here....other than my slipping on some snow-covered ice last thursday which resulted in my spending the next few days flat on my back...fun. wow. good thing I only have two little kids and not, say, five or six...of course, if I had that many little rats then the oldest one would be old enough to make me a damned sandwich and work the vacuum, not to mention also having the ability to pick shit up off the floor. Its been almost a week and I am finally getting around to being able to do shit...but it still hurts like bloody hell when I bend over.....so that should be enough right there to say that anything below my knees will be staying there.

I've also just enrolled the eldest rat in gymnastics....can't wait. I think I'll look into swimming too.
