San Diego, Here We Come!

We are getting ready for our big trip to San Diego! Unfortunately, all these have to come with us. Ben and I just finished filling all our "pill packs" for the trip. It's a bummer Lyme doesn't take a vacation! I think I might need a vacation from getting ready for this vacation! Meds, check. Clothes washed, check. Find someone to feed the cat, check. Clean the car out, check. Load the car up, check. Bring my sanity, Oh, crap I can't find that! Maybe I'll just leave that behind this time instead of my toothbrush! Well, it looks like we are ready for San Diego. The question is "Is San Diego ready for us"? Have a sunshiny day everybody!

Quote of the Day!

I know this is my weekly blog, but I thought I would put in a "Quote of the Day" because God only knows when my life will be organized enough to post everyday like I promised in the beginning! I think I must have been dreamin'! Anyway, Spencer was a bit grumpy when he got up and when I asked him if he got up on the wrong side of the bed he looked at me confused and said, "No, I got up on the left side like I always do!" The look on his face said, "Is there a wrong side"? So cute! It's always a good day when it starts with a good laugh with your kids.
Have you laughed with your kids today? If not, I highly recommend it! Old picture, but thought it was appropriate for laugh factor! Yes, those are diapers, AKA "Super Hero Helmets"! Have a great week everybody!

Thank You Blog Readers!

First things first... I would like to thank you for the comments, emails, and prayers. Keep em' comin'. I love to hear from you! I am doing much better this week, but so much for looking better! As you can tell from the picture I am feeling well enough to be silly with my boy's again. I am taking a break from my meds until I see my doctor again on the 22nd. She said the reason I was so ill is because I was "herxing" which in a nutshell means that the medicine is killing the Lyme and my body is trying to rid itself of the dead bacteria. Crazy, huh? I have watched Ben go through it and now know his pain first hand and pray that Spencer doesn't have to go through it although it's very likely he will. I suppose we will cross that bridge when we get there. For now, I rely on God even when I don't feel like it because His mercies are new each morning! "Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning" Lamentations 3:23. Thank God for that!
Last week the verse I would have quoted would have been Psalm 6:2 "Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint; Oh Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony"! I'm glad I can laugh a bit about it now! Have a good week everybody!

A Week Asleep!

Well, I'm not sure I have much to blog about this week since I spent it sleeping! It was a rough week dealing with the affects of this freakish disease they call Lyme. I sleep most hours of the day and the times I am awake I am in immense pain. Ben has been so wonderful taking care of everything. He doesn't do it the way I do, but God bless him for trying. I'm not sure what I would do without such a loving hubby so willing to gladly pick up the slack! Skyler is proving to be quite the responsible "man in charge" when Daddy isn't here too. Thanks Sky!
How about this picture! That's reality! No glamour here! Skyler took this picture because he said Ollie was so cute! I agree. Between the two of us, Ollie definitely gets the cute prize this week! I am looking forward to looking and feeling much better next week! Until I write again, hope you all have blessed week!
