cough due to cold

went to work..........came back home..........this cough is UGLY......
started some ultra strong meds........thanks blondie!!!!! (you know who you are!) so now i just have to get well......... staying home tomorrow and going to just push the fluids and healthy foods.......so i can get back to work and pay the mortgage!

dinner was fun last night with the children.........bandana's....love me some ribs and corn on the cob............then home for cake!!!!!! GREEN VELVET!!!!!!! whooooo hoooooo...... erin gave me a stunning necklace and mike gave me a new salad spinner........mine cracked and HE loves salad!!!!
rex.....my sweet rex got me a wonderfully pink optical mouse........and a fully packed calculator that has tape!!!!!!!! yep......TAPE!!!!! michael thought it was something from the 70's however i need something with tape when i'm paying my bills.............trying so damn hard to get outta debt and a machine with tape just makes it easier for an old school girl like me!!!!

well.......the cough is starting again.........i LOVE my life.......just not this cough!

it's my party and i'll cry if i want to!!!!

nope......not really!!!! wait.......it is my birthday and it is a party.....and i am NOT crying!!!! i have everything i could want.......sweetest husband ever.......loving daughter, great son-in-law.....two of the best puppies ever........friends all sending birthday wishes..........what more could a girl ask for.
i just wish i didn't have a cold and cough.........this cough is soooo forceful......it hurts!!!! and that lousy tasting medicine isn't much help!

okay.......enough whining.........the sun was shining for about 15 minutes!!!!!! glorious!!!!!! and the air is full of sounds of spring......birds chirping......the harbor bell is ringing......and you can smell spring in the air!!!! (no, it's not just dog droppings!) IT'S SPRING!

sick bugs living here in mo'fallon!

well.......guess i will be spending the day in sweats tomorrow for the official birthday outfit......have the day off (not sure why.......just a day off!) and i have been sick since thursday night........started with a little cough........mentioned it to tootsie about why am i coughing so much..........by that night i kept waking rex up with the coughing attacks...........got the call on friday to stay home on monday.....and thought.....yea...i can actually make a few things in the studio........yeah right.......been lounging with the puppies......can't keep my eyes open for more than a hour or so at a time.......really wanted to accomplish something..........perhaps tomorrow will be a better day......it is MONDAY!!!!!!

little jose' still has some narley spots on him.........his two hind legs and tail........just were the flowers are............hopefully they will heal over soon.

well..........did you hear......??????? i'm going to be the guest designer for ClearScraps for the months of May&June...........totally excited about that..........hope i can find some fun mojo to make some outstanding contributions!!!!!!!

will post some of the layouts i did yesterday with tootsie and girls!!!! think some of them turned out nice!!!!!!!!

tootsie gave me a remarkably stunning brooch for my jacket.....along with some other fun stuff......including red velvet cupcakes with pink/green icing!!!!! monica surprised me with some really cool pool stuff......can't wait to have the next party!!!!!!! along with a delish red velvet cake...........what a wonderful day it was..........except for the low grade fever and cough from hell!!!!!!!! downing cough medicine that tastes like is was made from yak intestines.......ohhhhh how awful it is!!!!!!!

well......off to bed........i love my life......sick bugs and all!!!!!!

poor little jose'

well.....after one week of debate.....i have decided to name the little creature that is living on my foot Jose'........thanks to miss becky!!!!! rex suggested hector.....ICK.....and i thought HEY-SUS (you know spelled jesus......not) then becky suggested jose'......since i am already associated with jose'...........so jose' it is!!!!!
anyway......poor little jose' is peeling.........and i hope the color isn't all coming off.......just don't know.......if so, guess i'll be making a trip back to delmar! there are some spots that feel really icky....just keep washing and moisturizing.......course seeing those little pieces coming off where very freaky..... thinking about a little heart with rex's name in it!!!!!! ohhhhh, i think i see a habit forming!!!

it's sunny outdoors.....and the weather seems pleasant.....the pups are running and barking as usual........miss lucy is coming over with the children........we are going to grill some steaks and hang out........perhaps watch the award show!!!!!
on another note.....since spring break is coming up, and erin loves to bake.....etc..i purchased a little cricut for her.........hope she will make a superb cake for me for the birthday.......will just see!!!!!!!

still loving my life.......peeling gecko and all!!!!!!

rex took some time today to learn his new software program on computer aided drafting......he's planning on redoing the backyard.....new plants and hardscapes....... i'm sure he will come up with something beautiful!!!
