Our new toy. :) We have needed a new digital camera since we've been married. Alex's old one accompanied him on his mission (in a very hot, humid place where Alex frequently dropped it). SO, drum roll please...
I've already played around and taken a couple pictures, and it's amazing what a difference it makes! I don't think I've ever had a decent camera before, so this is all new to me. I'm so excited!
Not quite sure what to make of this face. I do see it quite often though. ;)
I'm just starting to get over what has been one of THE worst colds I've ever had. A co-worker developed a bad cough early last week, and by Wednesday I woke up with a slight sore throat. I was so nervous- with good reason. By mid afternoon I was developing a bad cough and it was all downhill from there. I called in sick 3 days in a row, missed church, went to work on Monday- realized that was a stupid idea and called in sick yesterday. It has been a long weekend. On Saturday Alex forced me to go to an Instacare where they said I had an upper respiratory infection and that I 'just needed to drink a lot of fluids and ride it out.' I thought they were just gonna give me the boot without any drugs to numb the pain, but they ended up giving me A-MAYY-ZING cough syrup that without a doubt changed my life. (I couldn't have made it without ya, syrup. My lungs/throat/head/tired husband owe you one!)
Thankfully, I will be in good enough spirits to enjoy Thanksgiving. I was starting to get anxious. I absolutely love this time of year and was going to be extremely bummed if I had to miss out. Nothing like having great family and friends around a table full of delicious. Ya know!?
Life is great.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
And furthermore, I'm grateful for (deep breath): Pumpkin pie, hot chocolate, Mormon Tabernacle Choir, a great relationship with Alex, blankets, twinkly lights on garland, Christmas Trees, random acts of kindness, a job, a healthy body, repentance, piano, great music, talking about old times with friends, anticipation for the season, planning for the future, being almost debt free by March (a personal favorite), Cafe Rio, Dr. Pepper, and the list could go on and on and on......
