Yesterday, the Hertzlers took my kids for the day so that I could have a break. I didn’t even have to ask them, they asked me. They’re some great friends!

The goal for the day was to do NOTHING in large quantities. I think I did a pretty good job. I spent the afternoon on the couch semi-conscious halfway sleeping and halfway watching the Discovery Channel.

Then, I headed to the movie theatre to catch up on some blockbuster movies. I saw MI-III and X-Men III back to back. I watched the first by myself and then a bunch of guys joined me for X-Men. I really enjoyed MI-3. It was a creative story with lots of action and I think it was much better than #2. As far as X-Men, it was basically what I expected. The story isn’t that great, but the characters are really cool. I wouldn’t mind watching an hour of just seeing the different mutants and their cool powers. The story is secondary.

It was good day. I did pretty good in my goal of doing nothing. I think maybe I’ll have enough juice to make it to the finish line on Tuesday when Valerie comes home!!!! YIPPPEEEE.

Then, on Friday, I’m off to the US to take over the medical duties with Trent. I miss him a ton and can’t wait to see him. Four Weeks is WAY TOO LONG!
