You know, Time is flying by faster and faster and there is no way to slow it down! It's been awhile since I posted but I hve been running at 100 mph, it seems. I just can't seem to get caught up or sometimes I just can't make myself move....Let's see if I can remember all that's been going on here...
On the health front, I have finally stopped coughing! WOOHOO! I have finished 5 sessions of speach therapy and hopefully have stopped holding my breath when I talk. I still have to take the Kapidex and occasionally Tums when I eat if I feel like I am going to cough. I think I still might have to got to a gastroenterologist but we'll see...
The weekend of the 13th. I went on a stitching retreat to Myrtle Beach, SC. This was the 11th year for this. Meg Thompson Shinall is our teacher. we have been doing a series of the moons... the Nov moon is called a hunter's moon so to keep things fun, our class project had a dragon on it. We also had a play that told the story of St. George & the dragon.... your's truely was the dragon! I need to see if anyone got a good picture of me in my dragon costume! We also went to Medieval Times,
http://medievaltimes.com , and watched the show & had dinner. It was really fun and the food was pretty darn good too! The knights were soooo good looking, men in chain mail tights, wow! We had a great time and I might actually get this project finished!
Thanksgiving was our first holiday without Dean's mom. It was really wierd because we didn't see any of his family. He did talk to his brother & sister. Thanksgiving day I put a turkey breast in the crock pot for dinner but we went to a good friend of mine's house for lunch. Such good food! Chris & Chandle are real good cooks....... On the Sunday after T-day we went to Nancy & Gordon's for the family get-together. I think there was 15 of us! we had the 4 F's .... Food, Friends, Family & Football! WOW that was 2 days of turkey and the coma that comes from eating too much! LOL
I haven't picked up my needle since we got back from the beach so I can't really show any progress reports. I have been lusting after some digital scrapbooking software and finally broke down and bought it. I was so excited that I was going to get to play with it and my hard drive dies in my laptop! Can you see me banging my head against the wall? I was, I really was & still have the head ache to prove it! I had to replace the hard drive and download all the software and I MIGHT get to play with it tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed!
I have gotten almost all of my Christmas shopping done. I had plans on finishing it when I had to pay for computer repairs, but I should be done by the 15th.... I hope. You know, it's really hard when family says "Let's just buy for the kids", well that's all and good, but dang we have 15 kids under the age of 15!!!!! YES I said 15 .... and 13 of them are 11 & under.... so do the math if I spend $15-$20 apiece..... OUCH!!
I am sorry this post is pictureless... I promise to post some pics soon. I have some awesome ones from Medieval times I want to show you, but I figured I would actually blog so you would know I am alive & breathing..LOL
I better run, have to work tomorrow and its already 1230 in the morning. Good night everybody, take care...
