Pity Party

So I am totally having a pity party for myself this week. Boo hooing about all the "hardships" in my life. I mean give me a break, my life is charmed in comparison with others I see around me. I just need to suck it up and keep going. Life will go on and turn out the way it is supposed to. I just wish sometimes I had a little glimpse of what was to come but maybe if I did, life might not turn out the way it is supposed to. Anyway, mainly just ranting but hey...it's my blogspot so I am allowed to do that right?!

Christmas

So Christmas is in to weeks...what happened to the year...ready, set, Christmas. I haven't done a thing for it yet..oh my. So to not contribute to the crazy commercialism of this blessed event, I am doing a homemade Christmas. Yes that's right folks , everything I give will be made by yours truly (that's me)! So get excited and hope that you get a present from me.

SWINE FLU

...I have been sick with the swine flu for the past 5 days, since last Friday. High fevers with my T-max (that's nurse lingo) 103.1, chills, whole body aches, stomach cramps, nausea, coughing and running nose. I'm telling you, I was the idealic poster child for swine flu and I don't recommend it. Highly don't recommend it. And to top it off, I went to the doctor today and now have a secondary bacterial infection! Yes!So if you can stay away from pigs and confined spaces...please do for your own sake. Save yourselves the trouble of staying on the couch doing nothing for almost a week! Today, I am finally starting to see a faint glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

Kids say the darndest things...

So I wa over at Brooke and Thad's house tonight for a family get together and while most of the adults were having a conversation my nephew Thadius walks by me and says, "You're queen of the Relief Society"...oh what fun! It made me smile and chuckle. Good times and children really do say the darndest things!

One less fish

It's a shame that every swedish fish has to die when you eat them...

Too much thinking...

You know I was thinking today...there are some things I laugh at myself for because I used to do them when I was younger and continue to do them. And then there are other things that I used to do I am grateful I no longer do. For example:

my mom says that I used to change my outfit 4-6 times a day...lol...I still do that.

I no longer hide behind the refridgerator door to eat sticks of butter.

I seem to still the "social one" in my later years as I was when I was younger.

Let me know if there are things you still do and don't do from your childhood.

Homemade Pizza

Since I am home and somewhat restless I made homemade pizza today. Yes that means even the crust. I didn't have a cheese grater so I used a potato peeler. The toppings were tomatoes, chicken and cheese. The results were so yummy if I do say so myself! I wish I could've eaten more...but my stomach has shrunk due to knee surgery and medication. Enjoy...and I know you wish you were eating this pizza too!
