No retreat for me this year...

Since Brook and I couldn't go to the retreat this year in LA, we decided to have our own little mini retreat today. We first went to our favorite tea room, The Dove's nest for lunch, then next door to our favorite scrappy store, the Crafty Scrapper. Then it was back to my house to scrap! We had so much fun! She got 7 pages done and I got 6 pages done! We also watched Sixteen Candles and Grease 2...we also talked to Karen on the speakerphone before they went to dinner. All in all we had a great day even though we didn't get to join in the California fun!

Migraine is a dirty word...

This weekend I had another migraine. Luckily they have been less frequent since I've been on Topamax, but they still hurt when I do have them! It all started Saturday afternoon while I was out shopping. I came home and took some meds and got the hot rice pack hoping that would loosen the muscles. No such luck...about 7 o'clock, I told Dean I was going to lay down. The next thing I knew it was 2:45 in the morning. I was still fully dressed all the way down to my toe rings! I changed in to my jammies, took more meds and crawled back into bed. The migraine was gone by Sunday but the after effects were still there. Migraines just take so much out of me. Two days later my neck, shoulders, and head are still sore from it. I wish there was a cure for this dirty word....

Happy birthday to me...

As of 6:58 a.m. yesterday morning I was offically 34 years old. I don't feel older so I guess that's a good thing. I absolutely LOVE birthdays!! I love letting everyone know it's my birthday...is that wrong??? I had a pretty good day...we will go out and celebrate with dinner this weekend so that will be fun. So another 364 days until I get to enjoy hearing Happy Birthday again...

Getting the hang of this blogging thing....

Ok so I'm still figuring this blog thing out...thought I added pics to my other post, but alas I did not...anywho, here are the bluebonnet pics...

Bluebonnets and Snow?????

Who would have thought that the day before Easter we would have had snow here in Texas...not I!! Karen came in from Kansas to visit for a few days and we told her she brought the cold weather and snow with her... :0) We had a great time though! Brook and I took her to eat at our favorite tea room and then to our favorite scrappy store...what a better day could we have??!! Unfortunately, Karen had to go home on Saturday since Easter was on Sunday. It was still cold on Sunday but we were able to get our blulebonnet pictures done that day. They turned good considering we were all shivering the whole time. I'm just glad we had bonnets this year unlike last year! You just never know what kind of weather we will have in the Spring in Texas....
