Aweigh Just-Hoping-Everyone-is-Healthy Monday Week 9

To be honest at this point I'm just hoping for a week free from barfing and breaking bones. Do you ever have those weeks where you know that you are really lucky deep down but you start to question that anyway? Last week was one of those weeks what with the husband and 2 older kids barfing on Monday, the falling down the stairs and breaking the finger on Thursday and then Baby D barfing on Saturday and yesterday. Sigh. It was a long week.

But here it is Monday again. M is on break from school...the start of her 3-week break. I am hopeful that the kids and I will get out and have some good times. It has to get better after last week, right?

So last week's prize was another gift card for Shades Jewelry and a book from Harper Collins. The winner is...Chelsea! Chelsea and Amma both already won the book, so I will ask them to send the book to Bikini! Yay! 2 winners! Congrats!

On to this week's prize! This set of 6 hand-made cards are courtesy of Amber who blogs at The Wanna-Be Domestic Diva!

I was reading online and re-discovered the fact that soda pop prevents the absorption of calcium, which helps you lose weight. Sigh. I guess I should try to cut out even my Diet 7Up. Water would be much better for me anyway. So this week I am going to attempt to cut back on the amount of pop I drink (even though it is diet).

Anything new you're going to try?
