Scrapbooking

I have neglected my scrapbook. I still need to finish with three big events from 2009 to complete that book and I have not even touched my 2010 stuff!!! Last night I ran into Hobby Lobby to get a few pieces of paper that I needed. Worked a little bit on my project late Saturday night. Making progress!

New Plant - Gardenia




I have been wanting to get some gardenia plants for the yard. Apparently, like everything else, there are several different types. There were two types at the one place that I was at and only the one had a flower so I was unsure what I really wanted. I did get some advice and after what the associate told me, I was still not sure. Both were the same price so I went with the one that had flowers already on it. So time will tell if this grows to the size that I am looking to have in our yard. Nonetheless, it smells wonderful!!!

My Calla Lilies . . .




have bloomed!!!! They got taller and have spread out, so they must like where they are planted. They look so pretty!!! I cut one that was bent and brought it inside. Although a different color, we had calla lilies in our wedding flowers so these are a pleasant reminder!

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time


I'm a little behind on my movie going activities. Saturday evening I had every intention to see a movie. I was torn as to which one to go see first - Iron Man, The Killers, Sex and the City 2 or the Prince of Persia. I decided to start with the Prince of Persia. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to my friends.

Swimming

I am excited that we joined the YMCA for the summer. Now I will have somewhere to swim this summer!!!

Change

May 30th marks the day that steps are being taken for change . . .

I made it . . .

through the day! Last night I started to feel funny. Around midnight my head was pounding and I had the feeling that I was going to get sick. I did end up vomiting around 12 am, 1am and 2am. I was miserable and I know I was keeping my husband awake too. I finally fell back asleep around 3am only to have my alarm go off at 5:30am. I got up feeling horrible and tried to take a shower. My head was still hurting so I laid back down. I was torn . . . do I call in sick or try to go in a little late. I had a call schedule at 10 am and 4 pm that I would miss otherwise I would of called in sick without a doubt. I pushed through and went to work by 9:30 am still looking a little pale. Moved at slower pace and avoided my computer for long periods of time, but was able to keep my migraine from returning. Glad to finally be home. Took the dogs out and hit the bed until around 8pm when I finally decided to get something to eat. Looking forward to a better night.
