HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYBODY!

Happy Sweet 16th, Ashawe! *lol*

YYYHappy (Belated) Sweet 16th, Ashley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YYY

You are an awesome, amazing, friendly, talented 16-year-old! I'm so blessed by you every Sunday (or whenever your around!). You're easy to talk to and relate to and that is a very hard thing to find nowadays....somebody to talk to - not to hear the latest gossip. : ) Thanks for being you!

And btw - I was a bad friend. I forgot your birthday date, and I had my mom ask your mom and I mom forgot to tell me. Sorry 'bout that!

Confessions of a Sick & Busy Girl....

I confess that I have not posted since October 5th and it is now November 4th. Two good reasons for this: I started something called The Little Lounge which is a sight just for home schooled kids. The "mommy version" (if you want to call it) is The Homeschool Lounge. It's something like Facebook....only, as my mom puts it: "There is more meaning to it all." There are games, a chat room, forums, discussions, invites, contests, basicly that kinda stuff. I'm really liking it and that's partly the reason why I've been on there more than Blogger.

The other reason is that I've had something seemingly close to H1N1 since Sunday all the way up until last night. Lele, Nate, and Muver had a touch of it also but it wasn't as bad as the way I felt. I couldn't go to work, I couldn't ride, and I didn't go to tutoring....all of which I cried over except the latter. *lol* I had a fever of 102.6, my skin hurt, I had a headache, I was dizzy when I stood up, my lower back hurt really bad, my throte was scratchy and sore, and I wanted to sleep but it took forever to get there! So, my daddy who is the best, went to the store and picked up Canada Dry, pudding, and sherbet, just like I had asked. Mommy took great care of me, Liddy cleaned my room AND made my bed (I've thought about hiring her full time *lol*), and Lele got me my water, and offered me Snuggles....could somebody tell me where Leah went? *lol* Anyway, I felt crappy last night after taking care of the pigs and fell asleep right away. I woke up this morning and felt like a new woman! My fever is gone, my skin feels normal, my headache has been thrown into the abyss, but, granted, my throte still hurts.

Chicken soup doesn't cure all things (unless it's Cambel's), but chocolate pudding, sherbet, and Canada Dry does! So, could you all pray for Lele, cuz she feels worse today. You could also pray that we can get our swine flu vaccinations very soon. We where supposed to get them this morning but they don't let sick people come in and the vaccination is running out.

Love ya all!
