It was touch and go

Since last Friday so much has happened but yet at the same time, not much at all!
We (scott and I) killed ourselves to get everything moved in and in order at the new place. You see he was going to be off on Friday and we had SAturday free too (very very rare) so we were determined to finish everything so that we could relax and re-cooperate. The last month has been a non-stop whirl wind.
We laid down at 3:30 am on thursday (friday morning) and then on Friday when I woke up I knew something was not quite right! I was feeling really ill and then on Saturday I was running a fever.... so our perfect weekend (friday and saturday) was quickly ruined. I was wheezing when I breathed and coughing like an 80 yr old chronic smoker. On sunday I could no longer take it and while Scott went on to go teach class at church I went to the Dr. 
The Dr gave me meds and told me to rest and drink fluids- duh! I was not real impressed with this guy but, my regular Dr was not open on Sunday and I needed relief! I took the pills on Sunday, Monday and as of Tuesday I was running fever again and felt like my ribs were going to break from the coughing and I was no longer sleeping at night due to the coughing and the wheezing!
I have NEVER been so sick in my life. I thought I would break a rib while coughing up my guts! I seriously thought I might die.

So back to the doctor I went... back to my Dr. (she is so good) she loaded me up on antibiotics, cough syrups and a breathing treatment and so I went on my way to sleep and recover. 

I have not been to work or church all week. Well, I did go into the office briefly to try to get some work done and ended up having to come home I couldn't do it anymore.

The funny thing is that the whole time I have been stuck at home I have not had any form of entertainment... No cable- no tv reception period! No internet! Nothing! I just watched the same 10 movies we own over and over. Anyone who knows me- knows I am not a movie persons so... thank goodness for the cable guy who came today to give me the hook-up. If I have to watch Shrek, Charlie and the chocolate Factory or Ice Age (yes all we have are kids movies thanks to my nephews and niece) if I have to watch these movies one more time I will scream... haha
I think I may be a social network junkie so, I am glad to have my internet back! 

Anyways, thanks for praying for me as I am recovering/ It was touch and go there for a while - I hope by Monday I will be back to normal... I will even settle for semi-normal! 

Talk to you soon!

guilty pleasures

Scottie just discovered a new love in his life.
This guilty pleasure can be found just a short walk away from where we live and Scott has fallen hard-core.
Last night he went out for a paper and came back with one of these and said "Maybe it will make you feel better" Ha! Who does he think he is fooling.... He is so darn cute though.
All I can say is thank goodness we have a gym near our loft :) Im sure we will be frequenting it so that we can frequent the other..... hehe.

If you have never had one you should, I am sure that angels must mix the dough.

Have a great day. Thanks for your prayers as I recover, I had another trip to the Dr today.
