Sicker than a dog....

This week was brought abruptly to a halt when I got sick. Saturday morning I woke up coughing and didn't think too much of it until the afternoon when I spiked a high fever and couldn't hardly walk because I ached so much. I went to the Doctor on Monday and found out a had a severe sinus infection and also got treated for pneumonia. YUCK! I have missed work and classes this week and will have to catch up next week on everything. It is crazy but I had to get and excuse slip from my Doctor for one of my professors...I thought I wasn't in high school anymore!:) Today is the first day that I am feeling any kind of release from any symptoms. It is enough to drive me crazy just remembering when I took the last dose of meds and when the next ones are. I have a mirror in my kitchen that I have written on with dry erase marker to keep track and that has helped. I don't even remember the last time that I was this sick that it put me out for a full week! I even had a friend bear my sickies with me last night as she brought me dinner and hung out to eat with me. She was really brave but I thank her for it! I was getting tired of movies and I haven't been in the mood to read....only to sleep...and throwing things at my dog to shut her up!

Prayer!

Tonight my friend Kim came over to visit with her dog Tut. We hung out and chatted about what was new in our lives and what areas God is wanting us to improve on. We get together often and pray before we part ways and tonight was no different. Only this time the dogs decided that they wanted to join in the fun! As we sat and prayed together Starbucks, my dog, sat between us with her head on Kim's lap and Tut, who is the larger of the 2 dogs, stayed on the floor and looked Starbucks in the eyes. Neither one of them moved the whole time we prayed which was hilarious. Most of the night they we fighting over toys or playing with us. They must have thought that if they stayed quiet long enough we would take them out for a walk. They did get to go out but just to walk Kim and Tut to their car and then I high tailed it back inside, dragging Starbucks behind! Way too cold to stay out long!

New Favorite Quote!

A few weeks ago I saw some guy on a motorcyle with a shirt that read:

"3 can keep a secret if 2 of them are dead!" Cracked me up! It is my new favorite quote!

A new semester!

This is my second semester of classes and it is already off to a great start! I have only been taking 2 classes partly because of how much financial aid I received and the rest because I thought that I would be shooting myself in the foot if I took any more! Last semester was good but I think this semester will be even better. I am having to take Texas government and I have a hilarious prof this semester! I don' t think that it will be as boring as I had thought and I might actually learn something! Go figure! The other class that I am taking is a counseling class in play therapy. I LOVE IT! The first day of class we had to draw and color! How awesome is that! I had already picked up the professor in play therapy's book about a year ago when I took an interest in play therapy and now I get to read it again. I can't wait until we get to do observations at the Play Therapy Center on campus. It will be a crazy semester as I work full time and take classes part time but the learning part will be a total blast! I can't believe I am saying this but government might actually be fun!

Chillin and having a good read!

This is what I call a good read! Skylar fell asleep during her naptime reading Elmo! Too funny!

Celebrating New Years!

This year I celebrated with my friends from Covenant Church! We spent the evening in Addison listening to the comedian Tim Hawkins and then dancing the night away! Fun times! Thanks Freakin' friend Fran for making me feel like a Princess!
