13/52 aka The Worst Week of the Year-(So Far)

Well this past week's recap will be short, but not sweet. Because I came down with the illness of death and spent the second half of the week being violently ill.

Enjoy!!

 The Week started off with Monday, which at this point I don't even remember! I think it was warmish outside??? I went and got my allergy shot before teaching that day.
 And was wild and crazy and tried a way darker lip than I am used to.
 Tuesday was a very busy day! My Mom came to town and delivered my new to me washer. (It was actually my Grandma's.) We moved my old washer to the kitchen and got the new washer set up in the laundry room and ran it's inaugural first load of laundry successfully!! After all that I was sweating, but had somewhere to be! I went to the Nursing Home I frequent to play for my friends on the Alzheimer's wing. We had a great time as usual and I snapped a post concert piano selfie.

After that I picked up my FAVORITE Pizza EVER!! Buck Creek Pizza!!  Oh man their cheese pizza is amazing and delicious and everything that dreams are made of! I ate while I drove back to town.
 And then stopped at the Pharmacy to pick up a Prescription and was there for what felt like forever.
 Wednesday afternoon my earlier students were on Spring Break, so I made two Dentist apts for the same day. I got my cleaning, and during it my Hygienist popped off my temporary crown. Thankfully I was there to get my permanent crown right after the cleaning. I was hoping that I wouldn't need to be numbed, especially since it popped right off, but alas I had some tissue that had to be taken out?off? not sure. but I ended up with two numbing shots, because it HURT. Thankfully after that the tooth went on easily.

After that I popped over to visit Jboz for a much needed Baptist Happy Hour. We sipped on our Coke Icee's (Always my Reward for surviving the Dentist!) and caught up on life.

After that however, things took a turn for the worse.

After I got back from Jboz and was getting ready to teach I noticed I didn't feel so great. A little queasy. This is normal for me, as I deal with Nausea and Pain with my chronic illness so it wasn't anything to get excited about. I was 14 mins into a 30 min lesson when suddenly I realized this was NOT my normal nausea. And I did NOT feel good. Somehow I survived the next 16 mins without my student realizing anything was wrong, rushed her out the door and minutes later got sick. I had a brief reprieve in the evening and thought it was over. 


nope.

I was sick from all orifices for the next 48 hours. And then for longer with one orfice. I will spare you the details but it was terrible. TERRIBLE. What people were saying about the Stomach Flu lasting for DAYS on end and being horrific. Y'all. I'm here to tell you they were not exaggerating. It's a week later and I am finally feeling more like myself and feel like i have my strength back (mostly)
 I'm ready for cold and flu season to be over.
And in the midst of my sickness, I managed to slice my finger on a fan blade, in a rush to get back from the bathroom to my couch, before I passed out. I was trying to get my fan on my ottoman closer to my face for my nausea, and the fan fell. The front of the fan came off, and this genius picked it up with it still running on HIGH, and sliced the top part of my finger open. My middle and ring finger were both covered in blood. And I remember thinking to myself, I really hope I didn't just slice the tip of my finger off..... And If I did. Oh well. There was no way i was getting to the hospital in my state. 


Here's to a better week!!???!!

45/52

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 ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

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...
