What day is it? Could you please tell me?

Happy Wednesday – why does it feel like Monday? Oh probably because I’ve been on the couch for the past four days.
Saturday I felt under the weather and Eric and I watched movies all day long, Sunday we made it out and about to church and then back home for football, and come Monday morning my body didn’t really want to move. So I took my temperature which was 99.9 and called in sick, and lay on the couch and hacked and coughed all day long, Repeat for Tuesday, and that brings us to Wednesday, today. I am feeling much better though a bit tired and still coughing a fair amount.
Nothing major just a big case of the ickies, and with running a fever, I didn’t want to spread it to my wonderful co-workers. I respect them more than that.
Aquaman pretty much lay on my lap and slept the entire four days I was out of commission. I was very grateful for the company.
Eric was a good care taker, but took care not to be in the room with me too long so he didn’t catch anything. He was quick with the hot chicken noodle soup to nourish and the laptop to entertain. What a great husband I have. I am grateful for him too!
The cat provided me with entertainment when we put Aquaman’s pj’s on her yesterday evening. Thanks Gracie, I am sure I’ll pay for that for months to come.
Looking forward to a quiet night at home to rest up and charge up for the rest of the week at work!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
