Another week goes by



The past week has been a blur. We celebrated Marvin's 63rd birthday with our traditional choo choo train cake. However, this year he requested chocolate cake with red icing...usually its white icing. Fortunately we did not have a train wreck! Very tasty cake which I have eaten way too much of this week.

Rachel and I spent time doing what we do best... PUTTERING. It seems to be genetic. Rachel's haunts are Target and Bed Bath and Beyond. Deb loves the outlets and my spots are Borders, B&N and the yarn shop. And of course we always end our day with a meal at Pumpernicks, our local deli. We also squeezed in a pedicure.

Then, my week kind of fell apart and I developed a never ending sinus headache. After a visit to the doctor, I am now on antibiotic for sinusitis...bleeeeechh. My back ache is almost gone. Not much gym activity either :(

My coding studies are going well. I have three more lessons and then I take the final. Next will probably be medical terminology.

Not much knitting action. Hopefully I'll get my mojo back and finish up some projects before the fall yarns appear.

July 4, 2009 weekend












The children and pets ruled the roost for a few days this weekend. Deb and Bill, their dog Ladybug and Rachel spent most of the weekend at home. We relaxed, laughed a great deal, ate lasagna and talked about future dreams and desires. A great weekend.
