      Well, to quote my wonderfully compassionate daughter, "Suck it up, buttercup!" :D........that said, I'd try a few miles to see how you feel and go from there. Shame you can't run outside...the cold weather always manages to clear my head/nose right out. Hope you feel better and haven't shared it with ME!! :)

      Sounds like it will definitely be a rest day, although...you could go buy a Stouffer's lasagna, put it in your own pan, sprinkle some extra cheese on top, and call it a day! Of course, I would NEVER do something like that ;). Enjoy the day off, and go get 'em tomorrow!

      @Diane- HA! I understand completely! Isn't it funny how when the hubby is there we have to cook and such and when they are gone its all frozen pizzas and chicken nuggets!?! SO true! @Mark- Thanks bud! @Corey- Yea, yea, yea. Atleast I'm not like you who takes unplanned MONTHS off :P Haha! @Karla- I KNOW! @Kathy- Maybe he should live with you since he's never sick when he's with you?! @David- I KNOW! Its been insane! Doesn't help that I work in child care at the Y!
