- This picture is from last month, but I feel like it captures this part of the world fairly accurately. Cracks me up. I have been feeling creative, and stifled at the same time. I have a big project to-do list and finally I got one little thing done on Friday. Little. It felt so good. I want to do something creative everyday, even if it's small. But not with camo.
- I had a lovely 24 hour bug Friday night to Saturday night. We had just been reading in 2nd Nephi about opposition to all things and I was talking about not knowing health unless we feel sick etc. and then just wham! I was knocked out with fever and body aches. OK, OK I know and appreciate healthy! Let me stay healthy!
- Grateful for my hubby and family who took care of me. I think I got more sleep yesterday than I have the past 8-9 months combined. That Wybee takes a toll on my health. Will was very sweet--he came up to me almost in tears saying how sorry he was that I was sick. Love that guy.
- I am grateful for every Sunday done. I am feeling more comfortable in my calling (still hate hearing my myself) but I don't think I do a good job teaching the song. Games, gimmicks, fun, yes, but I've always been a lousy teacher. We videoed the kids singing today and I was singing and holding the camera and that was a big mistake. Way too much of my voice. Totally out of tune. Ugh.
- Tomorrow I start a weight-loss challenge with a group of friends on facebook. I'm pretty excited about it because I'm fairly certain I'll win :-). There's a cash prize. A major award, really. I've been working on weight-loss since the 1st of the year (I guess if the baby weight isn't coming off on it's own by now I will actually have to work at it!) And I've lost 10.5 lbs since then. In fact I saw a number on the scale that made me very happy today. It may be in part to the 24- hour bug of course, but I don't really care except that my initial weigh-in number is lower to start with. No padding that with extra clothes and water... I will just have to work harder this week. And no, I'm not going to purchase any camo with the prize money...

I just had the feeling that members of our family were sick because I had very few responses to several texts that I had sent out recently. And sure enough you were sick! I'm so glad it was only 24 hours? Hope so.
Joe thinks Allie has had the flu that Sally got. She had a really high fever and Joe a bad cold.
Dad and I have been trying to recover completely from a variety of things.
How's everyone else in the family? Sounds like they are doing well.
I don't know. Will would probably love a camo outfit or blanket or something! That row WAS impressive alright!
How wonderful to have such an affectionate son. I think he will always be that way. Sounds like it's just a part of him!
Yeah, I think primary chorister is really tough. Glad you keep trying, though. God can make our weak things strengths.
How exciting about the weight-loss challenge and WOW on losing 10 pounds already!!! I want to hear how you did that. I've had no such response to my measly efforts. I'm sure you will win the major award.
Glad you're feeling better! All th kids but Scott were knocked out last week. Happy creating!
So sad you were sick, but I keep praying for a good bug to knock me out and take some weight. GOOD JOB on the 10 lbs! I'm sure you'll kick butt on the challenge. I did two of them and won both, but I'm leery to do another one, they are HARD WORK! Good luck, you'll rock it. Oh, and good job on he chorister stuff, you'd be amazing.
Oh, one more thing... I took my cards to Mom's yesterday to show her all the extras she doesn't see... she LOVED yours and wanted me to tell you how darling your family is. :)
Is it bad that row of cam fabric makes me a little sick to my stomach? For some reason it depressed me. So sorry you got sick, no fun.
I actually saw a sign at Hobby Lobby that said, "I'm just a stomach bug away from my weight goal" :)
