Hooray!
Today I woke up feeling much better! It is the first day since my surgery that my headaches were under control. I am still taking Tylenol, and now my doctor has instructed me to flush out my nasal passages with NeilMed Nasal Rinse. After my doctors visit today I’m feeling confident the surgery was a success. I need as much positive thinking as possible! It is has been easy to do with all the great cards that I’ve received from the family! THanks guys!
Even thought ALL my cards were so amazing and kind, my favorite is Kari’s Hallmark card that sings “Just a Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Medicine Go Down!” Thanks!

In other very interesting things going on in my life - which isn’t really anything to be honest - I’ve developed a sincere desire for faux bois walnut oilcloth. This isn’t really a new obsession, but a novelty item I forgot about until I saw it again on Martha Stewart. As part of my afternoon punishment/torture for Joseph I make him watch Martha Stewart. Although, now I believe he secretly loves her catty comments, just as I do… it keeps me watching. {This goes into my collection of thoughts that make up my imaginary East Coast Life}. Moving along, after watching her make an artist organizer I was inspired to make an organizer for my red Moleskine planner and my fabulously favorite {it is also a work fav among the girls} Staedtler Triplus Fineliner Markers. I color code my schedule book. That’s right! Red for birthdays, Pink for family & friends, Orange for health/Rx/doctors apt., Blue/Light Blue for events, Green/Light Green for Irish Dance, Brown for work, and Black for miscellaneous. Going back to my original purpose and thought… I am going to use the faux bois walnut oilcloth and felt to make my organizer. I carry my markers and planner everywhere I go, so I might as well be stylish and creative at the same time!
More exciting news, Jaren and Patrick added to their life-changing events by adopting a Boston Terrier! They just bought their first home so it was either kids or a dog… dog is a good start. They must leave their new pup at home on the 15th because we are all going to the Flight of the Conchords Concert! You know you are a fan when you have their songs on your iPod and you randomly say things like “0000001, 00000011, 000000111, 0000001111.” I think my mom and dad would really like to go if they could. Actually, I can’t believe I forgot to tell my mother and father {they love FOC}.
