My Week

Well I've had an interesting week to say the least. Let me just tell you a little story. Last week Katie Marie and I went to Emboz's for a Jewelry Party. While we were there I had this fabulous dessert that Emboz called "Crack". It was chocolate toffee and super easy to make!

Audie moved last weekend and I had planned to take her over dinner Monday night and in preparation for that I made a test batch of Crack on Saturday night. Well it turned out VERY WELL. And was super yummy. So yummy that at 10:30 Saturday night while I was in bed trying to sleep for church the next morning, all  could think about was this dessert! So I thought I would get out of bed and go downstairs and have a little piece and then maybe  I could sleep.

So I got out of bed and went to go downstairs. I got about 3 steps down and lost my footing, I'm still not really sure what happened. What I do know is that one minute I was standing up and the next minute I had fallen and was continuing to fall down my stairs. I was holding onto the railing but not enough to stop me. I landed about 2 steps from the bottom of the stairs.

Long, pathetic story short, I broke my tailbone. And boy oh boy does it hurt! I'm very thankful that this was my off week for my bi weekly students, Tuesday I only have 2 students so I didn't have to sit for a long period of time. Weds at work was brutal. And I only work 4 hours on Weds. Going to Olive Garden with Muy Caliente afterwards was even more brutal. I had to make myself not cry when I stood up. The fact that I have no pictures of our lunch should tell you how much pain I am in.

So it's been an interesting week needless to say. I took the Crack into work and everyone went nuts over it. After they got a bite of it they all suddenly realized WHY i got out of bed to go get some. ha. 

And yes this is the second time i've seriously injured myself this year. Yes I am apparently the world's biggest klutz. Even I have to shake my head at myself. 

I'm contemplating buying myself a life alert necklace but i'm pretty sure i would accidentally strangle myself with it.


My Tuesday afternoon consisted of my windows being open for the beautiful cooler air, and watching CMA on Hulu.

I learned the hard way that it's very painful to sleep in my bed with my broken tailbone so I have started sleeping on my couch. I don't have to roll over, which about brings me to tears in bed, and it's easier to get out of. I am so thankful that Audra sold her comfy plush couches to me! They have been SUCH a blessing!

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

Book Review: The Last Dance you Saved by LJ Evans

  Buckle Up Buttercup, because Sadie Hatley is finally getting her story!!!! And it did not disappoint at all! The only thing I didn't like about this book is that it ended. I could have kept reading for 1000 more pages.  L.J. Evans is a Masterclass in how to write Romantic Suspense (that's not so scary you can't sleep at night) with witty banter, heroines who kick butt (figuratively and literally). Her books are full of real people with real problems. And I think that's one of the things I appreciate the most about her writing. Yes, her books are an escape for me, but they also show that whatever you're going through in life, everyone else is also going through something.  In the case of Sadie and Rafe alot of those issues they contained to themselves and kept the hurt and pain inside of them, in order to be strong for others and what they thought they needed to be. But L.J. shows us that not only is it okay to let people in, but the beauty and redemption that come...
