and it can't come too soon!!! Between the fire ant bite I got on my big toe yesterday morning, and the dead laptop (that Jerry wants to sell to some guy whose ad was in the paper) falling on my foot this morning.....yeah, my right foot is in poor condition today! (Nice bruise from the corner of the laptop hitting on the bone, and my toe is BIG and bright red! Isn't that "special"?!?)
In other news...Nick's getting ready to join the school's band, and play Jerry's old saxophone....which will cost $120 to recondition (not replacing pads either). Practices start tomorrow...I guess the ol' sax will have to do "as is" for now!!!.....Elisabeth is reading rather well now, and doesn't even fight me when reading for homework!!! (Yay for my little kindergartener!!!) She's also starting to talk to some of my "friends" at work, when she'd normally hide her face by burying it in my back! LOL
And on another note...please pray for my friend Kay, she's a single parent and had a rough year already, but now her dad's in the hospital in Michigan and they're afraid he won't be around much longer. She's probably boarding her plane to go up there right now, and is really having a hard time. She was afraid he wouldn't even make it until this evening, in time for her to get to see him again. BOY!!! I can't wait for 2006, it's GOT to be better year than this one's been!
So yeah, 9 more nights...."sigh"!!!
as sunflowers constantly turn toward the sun, i strive to face the SON throughout the day. many days i fail to keep my focus. it is my dream to one day become a beautiful sonflower
