No I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. Sometimes I wish but...Our internet went out during that last snow storm and I am waiting for the new modem to arrive so we can be connected once again. I miss all of you and I will catch up ASAP. Later.

Happy Easter Everyone! All is getting better all the time here on my homefront and I am trying to be positive. Most of the time I am a bit moody (not new information!) but yesterday and today I feel great! Probably due to the lack of illness and the sense of spring coming. More importantly I want to be thankful for what this day represents. A beautiful and priceless gift that none other could give. Take a moment and look around and as you soak it all in for that brief second, be thankful for what you have been given...we are so blessed.

Someone sent me something funny (thanks Jules). Got a good laugh out of this one. She reminds me of a female version of my Grandad, who I love btw.

And in case you were wondering if I have fallen off the edge of the earth where all sick mothers go-I have prevailed! I am on the mends. Except for this blasted medicine which keeps me close to home (mentioned below) I am slowly recuperating. Thank you (all 6 of you) for your kind words and concern. It touched me, not like Charlotte's Web the other night (I bawled thru the whole thing-gotta be the meds or earache or severe pain, not really sure at this point) but I did appreciate it. It is good to have friends.
Well, enjoy or maybe offended-at this point I am not sure that I really care. Oh yeah, Happy Easter. I have a feeling that the Easter bunny forgot my reminder or it go lost in the mail. Better get on that one.

Sorry I haven't been around. I just got an email stating that the bikini was getting old. How dare anyone get bored with looking at me in a bikini! just kidding, but let me just say that is as close as you or anyone is going to see me in a suit, period! Unless lypo is on your list of gifts for me this year. Didn't think so. Just thought I'd explain once where I have been and no, it has not been on a tropical island except in my fevor-induced dreams where that guy from the movie "Eragon" was there (that actually was fun and NICE!) right before Jennifer Aniston came and lots of other people that were doing strange things not worth mentioning. It really wasn't that fun-I want my money back!!

To be quite honest I've just plainly felt like .... First of all I just felt like 'do do' but then to add to the fun I got strep throat with a double ear infection. Yeah for me. 101 temp, razors in the throat and walking like a drunken sailor (from the ear infection). The only good parts were the Eragon dreams but they never lasted or ended as I would hope and really, dragons are scary.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that right after I got home with the medicine, Rock left for a three day farm-related trip, that is after all of the living room and sewing room had been moved and piled in the kitchen so that the new carpet could be layed but then the guy tells us that the carpet we got was complete crap and we need to get something else. soo......the absolute necessary parts of the living room get moved back in and Rock leaves. Leaving the rest of the rooms piled in the kitchen.

I go into something of a 'drug induced' tirad of trying to hook up the tv, make a place for the kids to sit and scrapped out a bit of table so we can eat somthing. Then I put Izy in charge and went upstairs to fall in to that coma from the drugs I referred to earlier. Keep in mind this was the second day of hell for me because I had already spent the day before in bed before I knew I had a double ear infection and strep throat. I just assumed I was having an exceptionally lazy day with razors in my throat.

Now for all of you motherly types out there that consider yourselves at all my friends ...where were you when I was crying for my mommie! Seriously, I was contagious so I would have shooed you away but I can't remember wanting my mommie so bad as I have these last few days.

Thus the strange and slightly odd pics above. Maybe I saw the dog in my dream chasing Jennifer. I am not sure really. There were too many to be sure. Now I am waiting for the medicine to stop giving me the "you know whats" that lead you to believe you might as well set up camp in the bathroom. And I am waiting for Rock to get home sometime tonight. Hopefully I will soon return to my normal 'moody, slightly funny self' and begin life anew. And one more thing -they better not be showing any ... re-runs tonight or I will be mad. Send me something funny, then I can laugh while I cry. seriously, it has been that bad.
