jellybeans

it certainly is the year of engagements and weddings. dresses and rings. my goodness!

lee is wanting a 90's ford F150. ballpark - $5,000. anybody know of any?

i got some new pain medicine that lets me sleep peacefully and doesn't leave me with a hangover the next day. hallelujah!

i'm looking forward to going to upstate SC this weekend. it's been awhile. traffic isn't nearly as scary there.

"the kingdom of God is gonna look like a bowl full of jellybeans...better get used to it now"
my pastor said something like this a few days ago. made me laugh.

went to the world of coke on saturday. i tasted TAB. Gross!!! and i tasted this drink called Beverly? can't remember what country it's sold in. that was by far the nastiest thing ever to touch my tastebuds. my husband can do a great impression of the coca-cola polar bear.

on being too busy...

i have made it my goal, since being married - to NOT get too involved with too many things. it's hard, but i'm trying.

i have always been a bit of an over achiever. and success is good, but i think i have come to this conclusion:

"life is so much sweeter
for the non over-achiever."

what do you think?

my monthly post

okay, sorry people who still read my blog - if any of you are still out there. i do miss the blogging world every now and then. i guess it would be a lot more fun if i had a nice computer and the ability to post pictures. maybe i can work on that.
anyway, lee and i were in a bad car accident about a week ago. we were in suwanee - it was saturday night. our friends jill and david were with us. lee was driving and i was up front with him in his 87 mercury grand marquis. yeah - a hooptie - the tank or the yacht as lee called it. yes, as he called it - because it was totalled. a lady basically ran a stop sign right in front of us so we ran straight into the side of her car. thankfully!!! no one was hurt very seriously, except i do have two broken ribs from it. and they have slowed me down considerably ever since. and its very annoying. i am really hoping i can go back to work tomorrow. seems like i say that everyday. i am doing a lot better the past few days about being more still. i hope it will pay off soon.
anyway, in a few weeks i should be back to normal and the other partys insurance is supposed to pay for everything, even some lost wages, hopefully, so i do praise God for that. it could have been so much worse.

i thought i would post a few of the things i miss most by having broken ribs:

cooking
sleeping on my stomach
being outside
exercising (like fun exercise, like racquetball, swimming, shopping, etc. haha)

now, in case you were wondering, i decided i would post the five things that hurt the most when you have a broken rib:
1. sneezing (this is a big one)
2. laughing ( i love to laugh - a lot - and i am unfortunately one of those people who when they laugh, their whole body shakes so this is not fun)
3. hiccuping (sp?) (someone scare me please and put me out of my misery - speaking of scaring me, i guess i could always take one of my lovely pain pills that gives me horror movie dreams. the next time you want a big scare that will really freak you out, do not bother to pay to see a horror movie or go on one of those spook trails. no, simply ask for oxycodone) i really hope no one takes me serious on this, cause it really will mess you up. i figure i can deal with the pain better than i can deal with what my mind makes up when i am on that pill.
4. getting out of bed
5. getting in and out of my little car

those were ranked, by the way, #1 being the most painful.

so, i am reading a lot, sleeping a whole lot, watching a lot of martha stewart and oprah..hahahaha. i know martha was a criminal or whatever, but i still love her magazines, her tv show, and she has a good website. i am sorry, but i love cooking, organizing, and doing crafts. and the martha stewart wedding magazine is the best if you are planning a wedding.
okay, i hope you all still have respect for me! i hope to blog again soon!
