I’m not sure where to begin!!

On Saturday Dave took me to one of my favorite restaurants (J Gilberts) to celebrate my birthday (actual b day is March 11th) …. and when I walked in  … Ronda and Jenny yelled surprise.   I was speechless … holy cow … they came all the way from Michigan to be with me.   (Just typing it chokes me up!!)

I’ve been with them since Saturday evening … and yesterday our first stop was Ikea.

After Ikea we went to my favorite Mexican food restaurant  and the rest of the time was spent stamping in my office.   Wow I never stamp with anyone … and I have to say it was so nice!!  I’m thinking I’ve got to do this more often!!

I’m stopping here for today  … because I’m headed to the hotel to pick them up so that we can get started with our day.

See ya!

p.s. I am so blessed to have my family and friends!!!!

My post today is going to be quick … it’s been a heck of a day!

The picture you see above is a soup I threw in the crock pot and if it turns out I’ll share the recipe … although … I didn’t measure a thing!    I was in a hurry and figured I can taste test it ….. and add ingredients if needed.

It has Italian sausage, potatoes, kale and a whole lot of dairy that I can’t eat ….but the family can.  (Actually I’ll have a little …. the stomach ache will be worth a few bites of it … I think!)

After only four or five hours of sleep last night  … Chase woke me up sick!  Not only with cold symptoms but also throwing up (yucky).

So, off we went to the walk in clinic …..he has what I have … Bronchitis.

The rest of the day was shot after that … three sick people in the house now … grrrr!

Dave will be going to walk in clinic tomorrow … so here’s a funny story for you.

He ask me to call the doctor for him today and get an appointment for tomorrow or Friday ….. so I did and the earliest they can see him is March 24th …. I laughed and said he’d be dead by then …I was joking of course and said no problem he’ll go to the walk in clinic tomorrow.  So, then I called Dave and he says “but did you tell them who I am?”  LOL  seriously dude I love you …but this time of year it’s walk in clinic or the ER.   Chase and I laughed for a good 20 minutes… in between coughs.  You gotta find the laughter where you can!!

I hope you’re all staying safe, warm and healthy!

See ya!

p.s. I’m sad to sad the joint pain returned today (left shoulder, arm and hand)  … I was really hoping it was going to stay gone at least through the steroids!!  I cried for a good 30 minutes, took a hot bath and then a nap.  Pain is a little less right this minute …..but I feel it coming back.  I’d hate to go to the er for pain but I was pretty darn close today.
