Mike works Sundays, so He gets Mondays off. We usually wake up late (well, as late as the girls let us.) Eat breakfast together and put the girls down for naps. Then I get to steal away to the gym for a nice break. We spend the rest of the day around the house. Completing some chores here and there but mostly just being a family.
Today, however, was not particularly enjoyable. Both girls woke up barley able to breathe. mucous pouring from their noses and spent most the day on the verge of miserable. As well as Mike and I both began the day complaining of sore throats which only worsened as the day progressed.
I’m still thankful today was Monday. Being outnumbered by two sick 7 months old doesn’t sound fun at all. At least Daddy was here to lend an extra hand or two. Here’s hoping they wake-up in a better mood tomorrow.
I’ve known Mike for just over 7 years now. In all that time he has never been a “sports guy”. With the exception of an occasional Pro Volleyball match, I’d never even seen him watch a game on TV. I’ve seen this as a blessing as I’ve never had to share the remote control.
This was all true until recently… Mike and some guys at worked started a fantasy football league. This has changed the way we do Sunday’s around here drastically. We now watch all the games and track the players using “Stat Tracker”. At first I was not so sure of this new hobby. But it has actually turned out to be quite fun. We have the families over and everyone gets into the games. My mom and Mike spend hours shouting at the TV and I try to comfort the babies who are a bit nervous about all the excitement.
Mike has held onto first place since early on. My hope is he continues to stay there. He suffered his second loss this past Sunday. Let’s just say this fun little hobby is not so fun if you spend Sunday evening with a guy who Fantasy team did not live up to the Fantasy that day.
