Flying Pigs

yes, we had the swine flu. thankfully for our household, it didn't last too long and really wasn't too terrible. i'm glad we had the weekend to rest up and get well. everyone is doing fine now, other than a little coughing here and there. Olivia had two really rough days but then woke up saturday at 7am bouncing off the walls. She is headed to school tomorrow! WOO HOO although, we did have a slight injury over the weekend. If you could see me today you would ask me what on earth is wrong with my face. it happens to be a burn mark from where pancake batter and oil splashed onto my face and chest sunday morning while i was trying to make breakfast for my girls. yes, i look like I have the mange or something from the corner of my lips outward. i'm hoping it will not leave a scar. i screamed and olivia looked over at me while she was playing her webkinz, but obviously she thought i was okay since she never even got up from her seat. maybe i should've screamed louder. ha.

I'm so excited about the temps falling...for several reasons: 1) the heat has been tough on me and my extra __ pounds, 2) it gives me fall fever and helps me get motivated to decorate and organize!, 3) reminds me of all the wonderful happenings of the season...birthday parties, babies being born, holidays, football, etc. I just love it!! We got baby Owen's room cleaned up and organized better. now we are waiting on the curtain panels to arrive so we can hang those, have rocking chair cushions recovered, and hang the shelves on the walls. After that, the room will be done...just waiting on baby. About 6 more weeks to go.

Thank the Lord for sunshine and cool breezes. It doesn't take much to refresh the soul. And the older I get, the simpler my needs become. love to all! have a good night.......
