Where Did the Week Go?

I had a bit of a relapse on being sick. Not long after I posted I felt better....

well, I didn't feel so good again. I finally started having a bit of fever. I was so afraid I was getting the flu that I went to the doctor. I don't, but I did have some infection. That was last Friday.

I have been on an antibiotic and just simply laying around. Sometimes you just have to give up, but really a week of it?

I absolutely never not respond to comments on the blog, but that is why...I just felt stinky. Forgive me friends for being so ill mannered.

I think I finally feel better today, so I am now facing a good bit of stuff to do.

I am moving a bit slow this morning, but as soon as I post this I am up and going to will myself to get some things accomplished.

Gus, the Springer was 9 months old yesterday. He is all boy and puppy. He has so much energy. He wakes up early and if I just had 1/10th of his energy I could do great wonders. All that said, he is a sweetie and loves his mama. He follows me everywhere. I don't go to any room that he doesn't follow. He has a squeak toy that he loves to squeak. It has to be hidden once Daddy comes home, because he just walks around squeaking it.

He also stay wet a lot and gather pinecones to try and slip in the house with.

He moves this bed around to all areas of the living room. He decides where he wants to lay down and moves it there. He knows sit and stay, but they are so hard because he really wants to just move.

It has been a slow week around here with not too much to tell. Thursdays is my mom day. We had to go to Pensacola yesterday to her dermatologist appointment. We are switching that over here for next year. It is going to get harder for her to go to Pensacola over time, so I have gradually tried to move things locally. She wanted to shoe shop yesterday. I was dragging, but we did it. I think I was asleep by 7:00 last night which might explain why I feel better today.

Lemony, the sweet girl.

My only other new news is that I have two trips planned. Lindsay and I are going to New York later this month. We are going to take a few days and have a mother /daughter time in NYC. I am excited about just being with her.

The other trip is to Haiti this summer as part of a mission group. My prayer warrior friends can go ahead and put me on your prayer list for that. I will share more about it later. I honestly did NOT want to go, but the Lord just wouldn't let me say no. It will involve me pulling out teacher stuff out. I had really turned that switch off, but it has to be pulled back out soon as I need to start planning pronto.
