Well, yesterday was when the chickens came to roost.  It was only a matter of time as I have been pushing myself extra hard for about a month now and pretty soon my body was going to say &#8220;no more.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>Oddly, as awful as it was to go through fever, chills, a visit to the doctor, antibiotics, and just in general feeling horrible for a couple of days, it was actually nice to have a day off.  I can&#8217;t remember the last time I slept in as late as I wanted and spent all day in bed.  I don&#8217;t remember the last time I said &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to work&#8221; and I didn&#8217;t.

Maybe it&#8217;s just fatigue from the cold, but I am over being stuck in the house all day every day.  I&#8217;m ready to take the girls to the playgrounds, out for walks, and take pictures of something other than us stuck in a house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both Adriene and the girls were sick last week and I said it was only inevitable that it would come my way soon.
