Digging for wood.......

Tonight was digging for slivers night.  I really like digging for slivers.  No, really.  I REALLY like digging for slivers. 

Being married to a carpenter, fortunately allows me to fulfil this passion often.  I mean OFTEN.  (That word looks weird in caps...)

In fact tonight I got to dig out 3.......yes......count them.......3!  I was in sliver digging heaven I tell you! 

I might add that my husband thinks I'm a bit of a masochist.  He says I just like to see him in pain.  (Well maybe just a little.)  I still love him though.

These slivers were huge.  Big deep slivers.  It was a sliver gold mine, and I hit the jackpot!

OK, so maybe there is just a touch of masochist in me, but just a teeny tiny bit.

Crazy?

Ever feel like you are actually talking to no one?  That I am sitting here typing away random thoughts and posting photos and I'm just talking to myself?

I get that a lot here at home.  Talking away to find out when I'm done with my speal that no one was actually listening.

"What did you say?"

"Never mind"  (deep sigh)

........and I turn and walk away, talking to myself once again, about how no one listens to me.  This time wishing no on IS listening to me because I might just sound a little crazy.

Is this just me?

Hello?  Are you there?

School pictures.......

So it's school picture time again.  Hailey got her 1st grade pictures back.  I wish I had a picture of me in 1st grade to compare it.  Next trip to Grandma's I'll have to raid the photo album.  I may have one in the basement........but with the state our basement is in.........that's a big chore.

What a great photo, it captures her so well.  Notice the lip gloss?  That was her "supermodel" mirror time before the photo.  Her hair is shorter now and one of the front teeth is missing.  Still........

Of course I could be a little biased........

Another tooth gone

Hailey has another tooth gone.  Dad helped pull it out this morning.  It needed to go, it was time.

The other front one is not far behind.  I'm sure Dad will be happy to help with that one too.......

Anxiously awaiting a visit from the Tooth Fairy.......

Starting to feel better......

I wrote about my nose earlier.  Well, it hit me like a freight train yesterday.  YUCK!  I'm starting to feel better now, but still have NO energy whatsoever.  I could sleep all day today I think.  I can breath again now though.......that's a good thing.

Usually it's my family that gets sick and not me.  I am always taking care of the sickly while I myself never get sick.  For some reason I got hit this time.  I think it's been about 4 years since I've been sick........maybe longer. 

Started seriously working out a couple weeks ago and honestly I think that is what made me sick.  I know not rational, but there it is.  OK, the stress could have had something to do with it.

So I have to start working out again tomorrow.  I'm guessing it's going to be tough, but I'll take it a little easy the first day back. 

Anyway, starting to feel better..........I gotta go to sleep now.

Night!
