My Run-in with the Law! (j/k)

On the way back from my sister Kareina's house yesterday I was in an automobile accident. A large semi pulled out in front of us and caused me to slam on my brakes to avoid smashing into it. Consequently the car behind me hit me from behind, then two other cars joined him. So I got wacked 3 times and one of the ladies in the 3rd car had to go to the hospital. Instead of being a responsible adult, I sat in my car and sobbed for 5 minutes. In fact I was so out of it I don't even remember the details of any of the other vehicles. Megan, my niece, and I now have some serious neck and back pain. Monday we plan on going to check ourselves out. We felt fine after the accident, other than frayed nerves.

Sick of It

I've let everything slide because I've been sick for the last two weeks and not getting better. It started with the flu and that turned into bronchitis and an ear infection and now nothing is improving even though I am doing everything I can to try to get better. I also have laryngitis and can't talk above a whisper.

So, that means that laundry is only half done and crowding my bedroom out with all the non washed and washed baskets of clothes. The dishes finally got done because my mom took pity on me and did them for me. I am so exhausted that all I do is sleep or lay around.

Through all of this my mom has been fantastic. Staying up at night to help me, especially when I puked. Doing part of my laundry, doing the dishes, cleaning up after the sicko and being a generally great person.

So I would like to say Thank You to my awesome mother and nominate her as Best Mom of the Month!

My very own Barbie Doll!

My niece let me turn her into my very own Barbie Doll this weekend. Here are a couple of pics.

The Tatting Project

I have been working on a lace collar for a friend of mine for about a year now. I had to start over because I used the wrong size of thread when I first attempted it. That was ok because I made a lot of mistakes figuring out the pattern. Here is a picture of how it's going. The title of this post is a link to the website of the man in Poland who designed the pattern. Its picture #5.

Foggy Morning

This is the wonderful fog my mother and I enjoyed on our morning walk about a week ago.

Freaky Hat Woman

While Shopping my sister modeled a hat for me. Unfortunately her poses were a bit strange. :) (Love ya sis!)
