We are still alive

I know that some people check blogs every time they get on the computer, and to see I haven't posted anything for a few weeks is a bit disheartening for some. Here is what's going on at the English house - in a nutshell.

Matt registered to substitute teach-he'll be me on Friday while I have our taxes done.

Nate got a Mohawk. He said a friend asked if he wanted one and he said yes. Matt thinks Nate lost a bet. We'll never really know.

We bought a hot tub a few weeks ago. I have wanted one for years, and the day is finally here. I don't sleep well and have noticed that I am sleeping better after going in the hot tub before bed.

It looks like tomorrow we may have a snow day. The kids are overly excited today in anticipation. If we are in school tomorrow it won't be a good day.

I am training to run a half marathon in May. The date is Sunday May 16 and the race is in Chicago. I have been training for this since we got back from Jamaica. This Saturday I will run for an hour and a half. My goal is to get 8 miles in in that time.

I just put your half marathon on my calendar. Are you planning on visiting us while your in Chicago?

You can tell Nate he's lucky he's a guy, I had a bit of a mohawk when I was younger. It was an enormous pain to grow out. And no, I don't believe I do have any photos of that.

How many of the girls in your class will have a crush on Mr. English when you return on Monday?

Glad to see your back to blogging.
