Weekend Review

I meant to write this yesterday, but just got busy and forgot about it. I had a wonderful weekend...slightly busy, but good. I got off of work at 12:00 on Friday, and headed to my parents house. On the way there I saw probably about 20 cop cars every half mile along the interstate. Mind you it's pouring down rain, and they are all standing there in their trench rain coats, and large guns pointed towards the woods. Still don't have a clue what they were doing, but at least I didn't get shot. So I made it home safely, and my parents and I headed to Charleston for the night. We watched the team my brother-in-law coaches play football. They won 51-14. I think Ed was a little upset that it wasn't a shut-out, but hey they still won. We spent the night at their house, and they must keep the air on 50...it was freezing in there. Saturday I went to Rachel Bass (now Rhye's) wedding. It was such a worshipful ceremony. The cake was massive, and delicious. Then we came back home, and picked up my Aunt and niece, and went out to seafood with them. We listened to some college games, and even watched some of TV. Then Sunday my "aunt," mom, and I went to the Panthers vs. Falcons game. We got to ride in her nice convertible to the game, and she has tickets in the end zone. Panthers won 24 to 9. So all that brings me to yesterday. I had gotten up and was driving to work, and a bird flew into my window. The poor thing is now dead, and I felt horrible, but there was nothing I could do. Tomorrow is CHRISTMAS MUSIC LISTENING DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fall Friday

I know I know...you avid readers (all 4 of you) thought something was wrong because I haven't blogged in quite sometime. I lead a pretty boring life these days so not much info to update you on. This week was a CRAZY, but fun week. I would like to also say that the weather this week has been fantastic. Fall is certainly in the air, and I LOVE it! Tuesday night a bunch of us went out to eat at Applebee's for a birthday. I didn't know they had all you can eat chicken fingers. That blessed my socks off. Then last night I went to another person't house for a birthday get together. We had pizza and played Nertz (a fun card game). For those that are wondering my ankle is much better these days. I actually was able to go work out on it, and only one machine hurt. I'm going home this afternoon to get my eyes checked because I have a headache from staring at the computer ALL the time. Hopefully he can give me glasses or something to help the headaches go away. Well Christmas Music Listening day is just around the corner, and for those of you that don't like it...BAH HUMBUG to you!!

Update on me

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. My mom had her retirement party this past Saturday, and I think it went well. She especially enjoyed having two of her International Students that I found do a little video blurb for her. One used to sing ALL the time when he lived with us, and so he sang a verse of Amazing Grace in English/Korean. So gorgeous! They ended up moving Ed (brother-in-laws) game to Thursday night because they were scared of Hurricane Hannah. He ended up winning, but it wasn't a shutout. It was soooo good to have my brother and his wife home from Atlanta as well. We all went to church together on Sunday, and then Cracker Barrell. Still hobbling around, but now I have a boot that I got today so hopefully I can walk a little better, and not have my foot hurt. I've been able to put pressure on it so that's a good thing. pray for my roommate...she has strep throat. She scared me last night because she came home early from class, and was having trouble breathing. So her boyfriend took her to the ER. So pray that I don't get it, and that she gets better SOON. She plays soccer so she needs to be better. Hope everyone is having a GREAT week so far, and don't forget Christmas Music Listening Day is right around the corner. Tell me your favorite Christmas Song and why.

Toe Tappin Time

OK so there's really no toe tappin going on because it hurts to bad, but I at least wanted a catchy title. :)For those that read...the faithful 3 or 4. I decided I would update you on my foot. I got over my stubbornness and ended up going to the ER yesterday afternoon. I did indeed fracture my little pinky toe bone on my left foot. She said it would have been better to just crack it in half, and it bruised and swelled (not sure on the tense there) a little, but will do more of that underneath. She told me to be on crutches, but I told her not at NGU. So I just have to keep it wrapped, iced, and elevated. I mean really when will Satan stop with me, and move to the next person? My mom's retirement party is Saturday so please say an extra prayer that the weather will hold off.

Journal Entry

I feel like I'm about to write in my journal..which by the way I only keep one on Mission Trips. I can barely think of things to blog let alone journal everyday. This weekend in a nut shell. My parents and I went and watched Ed (my sister’s husband) coach his HS football team. They won in the last minute of the game…39-34. It was a back and forth game the whole time. So that’s always good. Then Saturday we ran lots of errands. We watched the Clemson game, and that was a total upset to say the least. I went and got my toes done, and I asked for a Clemson Tiger Paw to be put on them. I forgot that they usually don't speak very good English..so this lady that was waiting to get her toes done as well went through Wal-Mart and got a hat so they could look at the design. Needless to say I have a Tiger Paw..heheh. Speaking of Clemson I really want them to do better...I mean the first game of the season, and you barely showed up. Let's get it together boys! Sometime Saturday night the power went out so we didn’t hear our alarms for Sunday morning. Then Monday I just chilled, and then Tuesday I had an annual cleaning at the dentist, and then came back to work. Now that you have my daily journal entries  Say an extra prayer this weekend..we are supposed to have my mom’s retirement party on Saturday, but that is also the time the Hurricane Hannah is supposed to grace us with her presence. If you think about it tonight my roommate, Mollie, has a soccer game tonight. So just pray for safety and a good game.

I almost forgot, and this is why I decided to blog today. I got out of my car yesterday and was literally WALKING..not running, skipping, jumping, etc. to go to Curves, and some how I managed to turn my ankle. It kind of feels like the time I broke my pinky toe bone White Water Rafting, and the girl in front of me told me if I yelled again she was literally going to throw me out of the boat. So I hit my ankle on some rocks, but you better believe I kept quiet. Anyways I went ahead and worked out, and it's hurting bad, but I'm stubborn and seen enough doctors this summer so not going to get it seen about right now unless it gets worse. It's nicely bruised, and couldn't get comfy last night to try and sleep. I have it wrapped today, but don't you worry still going to try and work out today...I know call me STUPID!!

What did all my faithful readers do this Labor Day Weekend?
