So I was home for 12 days and blogged just twice...

Is it fair to say we were too busy? The past almost two weeks have flown by, we Schmidts packed quite a bit into our time off. Tomorrow's alarm is going to ring a little sooner than I want and back to the daily grind. Here are some photos of Xmas morning and later in the day at Auntie Shirley's -

Little man and the two things he wanted for Xmas - a Wii and a SpongeBob toothbrush - go figure.

Our baby girl looking very grown up.
Gramma Sharon and her kids - can't believe we got everyone to look at the camera.
The kids at Shirley's - note the gifts - it took us only three hours to open the gifts this year - a record for us. The sad thing is we cut back this year.

Did you buy the Wii in October, on eBay, or did you just get lucky? (urgh! I went to Best Buy four times, and gave up after I showed up 15 minutes before opening one Sunday in early December and there were 30 cars there already, when the manager told me there were only 10 Wiis coming in).

Ahhh, the joys of the season!

See you Tuesday, my friend!

Santa got the Wii from one of Allie's friends dads, we paid a little extra, but was kinda worth not having to stand in line. Then as soon as I paid up I found 10 of them at Best Buy aarrrggghhh. I should have called you.

We are having fun with the Wii. I am consistently getting my butt kicked in tennis by a 5 year old. Sigh.

Six weeks

I am sidelined for at least six weeks. No tennis - no good. My bad wheel turned into immobile wheel today thanks to an air cast. Not the most attractive accessory. I had been trying to continue playing with the plantar fasciitis guess I figured it was going to be around for awhile so might as well deal with it. This plan actually worked out for the best because when I was playing on Thursday there was this loud pop in the bottom of my foot. Suddenly my heel felt better, so I thought, "Maybe it released all of the bad heel juju into the rest of my foot." Well, it was something like that. Evidently I tore a ligament in my foot which the doctor told me is really the best thing that could have happened. The reason why is it cured the plantar fasciitis. Plus the recovery time for the ligament thing is about six weeks versus potentially months or years with the other. So all in all I guess it was a good thing to tear a ligament. I am bummed because I can't do any exercise for t...

Tightrope walking on a string

This has been one of "those" weeks where I often find myself scared to slow down and assess the situation because when I do I start to get this really tight feeling in my chest and I feel nauseous. Does anyone else get that? When life is going mach 10 with your hair on fire...and if you stop you just might fall right over from that string you are balancing everything on... I am going to bed.
