Drugs, finally

Yes, drugs. A zpack that is, along with more Mucinex D. Finally, after two sinus infections since January and the last being over a week long, I gave in and went to the doctor. The verdict? An Upper Respiratory Infection with a viral Sinus infection. Fun fun huh!? I've had a miserable week and hope to get better quickly. Why? Because of this, I had to miss my good friend Mandy at church Sunday because I was home trying to get better.

I am still coughing and last night I had to go sleep in the living room in the recliner just so I could quit coughing and sleep, without waking anyone but the cat. Chloe doesn't mind tho, she follows me and will sleep with me where ever I may end up.

Blay got promoted to the Older Two Year Old class at school yesterday. I was sad. It's noteasy hearing him say "I want to go to Ms. Amy's class", which is the class he was just moved from. We finally got Ms. Amy in there as a full-time teacher and she was awesome! I hated he had to leave her in such a short time but everyone talks great about his new teacher, Ms. Tracy. She will even help them get potty trained (I hope).

More news, John finished painting the guest hall and bathroom this week and we have moved on to the dining room. I found two prints at Kirkland's yesterday. They are very similar to the two I currently had bought but the are more 'formal' looking and have better frames. I am just on the hunt for a larger picture now to put above my eventual buffet.

Well, this about sums up my life for the past week. We have a fun filled weekend coming up with the inlaws coming in for a visit. We are going to try to go to the aquarium and the Imax while they are here!

Love to all,

Can we start over?

I want a new start to the week beginning Sunday. Only this time I do not want it to include snow! Friday I had to leave work early because of snow. Saturday it snowed off and on all day but with sunshine.

Sunday we woke up to snow and a light dusting and it continued to snow all day thus causing Blay's school to close yesterday. That was kind of convenient since John was off work for President's Day. John took Blay out to play in what snow was left from the warm sun that appeared. Then, it started snowing again on my way home from work.

This is what our house and surroundings looked like this am when we woke up. Keep in mind that we had about a dusting a dusk on Monday.





I love when God paints the Earth. I makes the Earth seem so at peace and serene. I love to look for animals and watch them play in the snow. I like to play in the snow but I'm ready to give up the snow for a while and have spring-like weather. I'm past the winter, especially since I couldn't get out any to go hunt.

On another note, I am sick, again. I have another sinus infection but this time it is starting to settle in my chest. I have started myself on Mucinex D with thanks to my best buddy Jill but I have a feeling it isn't going to work this time. If not, off to the doctor I go. Speaking of, Blay goes for his 2 year visit on Thursday. I'm anxious to see how he has progressed and if he has moved up the percentiles any? He's been stuck between 15 and 25 percent since he was born. He's even dropped to 10% at times.

I have slacked recently in several things. One of course is blogging, two is my monthly meal plan, three is couponing, and four is laundry. Between being sick, working, chasing a two year old, and this crazy weather I feel like I just keep running around in circles. I was kind of looking forward to being home today so I could get caught completely up on my laundry, grocery stocking, and some house cleaning. I will have to do that now on another day.

Well, I guess I should run and work. I have to go pick up my hubby here shortly to bring him to his new-to-him truck we just purchased. Little did we know, when you have children, you have to 'up-size' everything!

Love to all,

It's gotta give right?

I mean seriously. I love snow, always have and always will but I have never seen so much snow fall in one winter than this winter. A 'blizzard' of sorts came through two weeks ago. Before that, we had about 4 inches than about 1 inch and last weekend we had a dusting. Now, it is snowing again and daycare is letting out.

What's more? It's supposed to do this again on Sunday night into Monday am. I just don't know if I can take anymore snow right now. One or two good snows and I'm happy, not 5 or 6. I love the fact God likes to cover our earth in this pretty blanket but a break from the wet stuff, rain included, would be nice for a couple weeks.

And the funniest thing about all the snow? That the meeting in Washington DC for global warming had to be cancelled because of the blizzard that hit them earlier in the week! That's a good joke! And a real one at that.

With this said, I have to jump off here, wrap things up at work and head out in this mess with all the CRAZY people, I mean people of this town to go pick up my handsome and loving men...

Be safe and have fun. Twitter me later!
