And...we're back.

So we had a little hiatus from posting there as the holidays got busy and we both got sick. I had Bronchitis just before Christmas which cleared up pretty quickly, but Shannon and I are both fighting a cold right now. 

I have never really had this traditional cold where your head feels like a baloon and you are stuffed up and have kind of a dry cough. The good news is that it broke last night and today I feel a lot better. Shannon however may be in for a long night as yesterday was my worst day and she is about a day behind me.

I think we probably caught it camping at San Clemente for New Year's. I know some people think being cold has nothing to do with catching a cold, but it is too convenient that we were camping in freezing weather and both got sick. 

The San Clemente campsites are really something. They are WAY better than San Onofre.

Shannon and I have some New Year's resolutions we are really going to try to keep. We have 3 goals each and then 3 family goals.

Shannon's Goals:

Grade all papers within 4 days except for major assignments.

Exercise 1 hour 3 days a week.

Pack lunches for Mon, Wed, Fri.

Robert's Goals:

Practice Piano 30 minutes a day at least 3 days a week.

Exercise 1 hour 3 days a week.

Pack lunches for Tue. and Thur.

Family Goals:

Buy a house or save $10,000 towards a down payment.

Attend church at least twice a month.

Each clean 20 minutes/day

I am sure to many they will not sound terribly ambitious, but if we did these things I think we would get on track for some bigger things in 2010.
