Good Morning,
I just got up, it is after 7, I don't like it when I sleep so late!
Yesterday I messed around and did a couple of errands. Nothing exciting. Today, I want to clean the office and living room, kill some weeds.
I called for an eye appointment yesterday, to find that our eye doctor has sold his practice. So, we now have a new eye doctor.
Sharon, I agree. The tomatoes and peppers are going crazy. I planted one heirloom tomato, and that has a couple of tomatoes on it already. It is called indigo red, the tomatoes are almost black in color. We will see what they taste like and look like.
Crystal, put a sign on your desk saying BAD CARBS, with an arrow pointing to all the sweets. It may not help, but I bet you will be asked about it.
Dawn, make sure you post pictures of the party Saturday.
Have a great day,
Hugs,

Hello everyone
I had a good day yesterday. I was able to help a friend see what a great person she is...regardless of what ONE person feels about her. And when I got home I talked to my guy friend about our plans Saturday (to go skydiving). I told him since he paid for the skydiving (which is expensive) I would buy the meals...it's an all day thing (so lunch and dinner). He wouldn't hear of it. I think I will make something and bring it for the road trip. There are ways for me around this...LOL.
Today after work I have a my hair appointment. I will highlight my hair. Since I can no longer lighten my hair to blonde and straighten my hair without damaging it...so one had to go. I have so much breakage it's unbelievable. I am still trying to baby my hair back to health. I decided to let it go to it's natural darker tone and just highlight it. And not go so light of course....but I need to brighten it up just a bit.
They got a new shipment of candy, cookies, chips...you name it....here at work. It was so nice for awhile because there was no junk food around to tempt me. Now I am back to gritting my teeth and turning my head and walking away...GRRRRR!!!!!
What are you all up to today???
Sharon- I can honestly say there have been owls in my car...hahaha!!! When Amanda worked at the park district in Champaign she would visit the local schools and teach the kids about different animals. One of them being owls. She would use my car and bring the owls to the school. I was kinda leery about owls in my car...hmmmm.
Lisa- Ya our state is backwards. they see SS as income like anything else. It will probably never get fixed. It will be the same broken system forever
Well back to work my friends.... have a great day. See ya.
Hello Peeps,
I have a busy day planned today. After I go to the chiropractor, I am going to babysit the babies and then to CR.
This weather has made the plants grow like crazy, especialy the peppers and tomatoes. They are all taller than their cages and its only June!
Please enjoy this day the Lord has made for us.
Hugs,
Sharon
Hey Dawn,
For me it has been a God-send. If you go to their website there is a lot of information. I am waiting for the next step study to begin so I can start that too. It begins with 3-4 worship songs, then someone share their testimony, then we break into small groups and share what is going on. If you try it, you may enjoy. The best part is total acceptance. Hugs, Sharon
They have a Celebrate Recovery event every Friday night in Rockford at Heartland Community Church. I have never been. I DID attend Heartland when I was in treatment, but the service was not for me. I might check it out if I am ever in town on a Friday evening. Interesting.
Tell someone that you love them!

Hi Peeps,
Where does the time go??? I tseems I was just here, but it's been 4 days! I am not feeling so good. Bad back pain that has been waking me up at night. It's stress. I went to the chiro and she massaged me today. I hope that helps.
Last night I was getting into my car and looked down and happened upon a baby owl. Oh so fuzzy and cute. He just gazed at me with those big eyes and then high-tailed it under the car. Hope he is ok. First time ever seeing a baby owl.
I am dealing with my addiction issues and how they have effected my life. Spending and eating. I have been going to Celebrate Recovery (CR) meetings a few times a week. Tonight I am going to the New Lenox meeting. It will be my first time there. Tomorrow hopefully Bolingbrook. I learned a couple days ago, my issues have created a legal ramification for me and I am very stressed about that.
Crystal, you will love Cherette, she is very good. Tell her I said hi!
Dawn, I love the Sister Wives show and they are trying to get a jewelry business off the groud. It isnt easy. But if it works, how awesome.
Connie, it sounds exciting for you and Kay. The store is going from the dream to this amazing reality. Bravo!
Lisa, I dont think these bones could handle a cold shower, even in this heat!
Carla, I am looking forward to hanging when you get into town.
Hello, Connie and Jason.......
Hugs everyone,
Sharon
Hi friends!
Well the last few days we have been working 10 hours or more and these old bodies are having a hard time recovering. We have ten women from Madison coming today for a preview (basically because one of our knitting friends is visiting from PA and won't be here when the store opens). So we have been trying to get as much done as possible so she gets a picture of what the shop will be like. Yesterday a friend hung a picture over the fireplace and as we were admiring it, it fell off the wall and broke the glass all over. At that point we quit for the day. Kay did get a frame at Michaels and today the picture is back up. Then since these friends are coming to our house for lunch, I was getting extra chairs out of storage and crammed my toe into a piece of furniture. I don't know if it's broken or bruised but it ended my day right there and then! Today I am limping, but moving. We had already decided to take the rest of today off and perhaps tomorrow too. Life is such an adventure!
Crystal, I'm sure you will be great help to your friend. I hope each of you has a wonderful day and that the storms stay our of your way!
