I finished my 9-5 every-day-for-a-week class after lunch. It was a tough class, but very rewarding. I start normal summer-term classes on Monday, and so does Alyssa.
The kids have been sick all weekend. Freya's fever got up to 103 during the day and they both had a bad cough, but we made it through and, thankfully, they're both back to normal this evening. Alyssa caught a little of it but seems better, and I think I dodged it (not sure how that happened) but we'll see.
My Fathers' Day gift was to sleep in until almost 11, something I don't get too often. Alyssa also tried to make me some breakfast but didn't have as many hands as she needed so she couldn't make everything she wanted. Still, it was really nice of her. We've spent the weekend going for walks and watching our favorite show, Stargate SG-1 all weekend (since we only had the weekend, with my 0-week class and our other classes starting on Monday keeping us busy), so that's how we spent most of today.
We also built all our new furniture all weekend. We've been upset at the state of our apartment for a while now (cheap bedspreads, no couch, mismatched furniture which doesn't hold everything, it all just looks like a mess) but Alyssa scored $500-$600 worth of furniture for about $200 on Friday so I put it all together and we spent a good amount of time doing Spring Cleaning and re-arranging everything. Now we have nice stuff and it all matches so it looks like someone actually lives here.
We decided to stay here in Eugene, at least until next June, rather than leaving in the next few months. It allows me to bring my GPA up with classes before we head to grad schools. California is still the plan, but we'll see.

I hope staying in Eugene makes your future better. How cool about the new furniture!
