Such A Great Day

Did you look up at the sky today??  Oh my goodness, it's bright and this  beautiful brilliant blue (say that three times fast!!). The clouds look as though you could reach out and grab them!!  Fluffy and white, like marshmallows!!!!!!!!!! 

Barbi left a pair of her shoes here. They are sitting just in front of my bed where she kicked them off.  It made me chuckle when I saw them.  I thought perhaps subconsciously, she left them behind thinking I may need to strap them on with "my boots".  After all, she knows too well that sometimes I've just had enough and I need some more strength!  However, I realized that wasn't the case when I called her and told her the shoes were here!!!  Ha ha!!  She was not a happy camper.  Off they go in the mail tomorrow!

I feel GREAT today.  Not even a little tired, and my foot isn't bothering me at all (knock on wood).  My sugar has been good, except this morning.  I think that's because I ate a little too much sugar free candy. I know, it says sugar free....which it is.  BUT, it contains something else they call "alcohol sugar" that "may raise blood sugar levels".  MAY??!!  Ohhh helllllloooooooooo, it did.  I'll have to take it easy on the sugar free stuff.

I'm still coughing alot.  I hate it.

I have laundry to catch up and some cards to stamp.  Don't forget to watch Idol tonight!!!!!!!!!!

I love y'all tons!!!!!!!

P.S. ~ Mark your calendars....it's the 30 day countdown to my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 

I'm a little wounded,
but I am not slain;
I will lay me down to bleed a while.
Then I'll rise and fight again.

You know, if you shared a birthday with my sister (as I do) she would probably tell you that your birthday didn't matter, only hers did. This year, when I turned 21, she said that nexty year she would be turning 16 and that my birthday wouldn't matter at all. I told her I already turned 16 and therefore it doesn't matter that she is because everyone was already excited about that, and then I said "yes, but you still live at home and will for a very long time. Plus, being a teenager sucks."

She didn't like that too much.

Get ready for 35 birthday punches--and while most people get one for good luck, I'll give you two. I figure the pain of them will DEFINITELY take the focus off of your feet.

By the way, you hear about the concussion Elan got? It's not funny that he got one, but he's funny. I love that crazy kid. He drew me a picture of my favorite Disney character Donald, and it's great.

LOVE,
ME!!!!!!!!! (You know, FC)
