This is going to be a WONDERFUL week just to let you all know!
Why, you ask? Well, I'll tell you!
- I s
houldwill be completely healed this week and completely back to normal! I had my tonsils and adenoids out last Tuesday. It has STUNK...and hurt. All last week, I slept, slept, rested, and slept. The whole process wouldn't have been so bad if I could had a steady drip of pain medicine so I wouldn't have had to hurt while it wore off before it was time to take it again, if I could have lived without eating, getting hungry and/or weak, and if it was possible to live without swallowing. It has hurt like no other, but let's pray that it will fix my relationship with strep throat! It has definitely not been an ideal way to celebrate my last spring break as a college student, which brings me to my next item of business...
- I will graduate college in 54 more days!! WOOHOOOO!!!!! I am counting down and I will get another 7 days behind me this week! I honestly cant believe that I will soon be a graduate of Troy University! My 3 years as a full time college student has truly FLOWN by faster than the speed of light. In these 3 years, I haven't been your average college student. I wasn't raised that way, praise the Lord. I've went to class, worked a part time job, taught the youth at my church, spent time with my family and my sweet boy, and been in bed by 10pm more nights than not. That's just how I prefer to do things. =)

hopefullywill buy a ring that I will keep forever. My great grandmother, Mother, LOVED rings. I mean loved them to the point of wearing one (or two) on EVERY finger. =) Rings were just her thing. If you saw her without them, something was up. During her last few years of living, she couldn't wear them and her hands never looked right. Mother passed away in January after battling Alzheimer's for several years. A little of her money was split between the grandchildren and great grandchildren. Most of what I was blessed with will go toward school. However, some of it will go towards buying myself a ring. I want something that I will forever keep and remember her by. Since she loved rings so, I thought it would be just the thing to get in memory of her, plus I know she would approve! =) So hopefully this week/weekend, I will get to go shopping and buy a ring.
- I have all week off of work. Yay for more rest and more time for healing. Boo for no money. Here's the breakdown. Took off Monday - Wednesday, because Dr. said it would take 7 to 10 days for my throat to completely heal, also Tuesday, my mama is defending her dissertation to get her Doctorate (Should I start calling her Dr. Mama??) and Wednesday's are my off day anyway to prepare for teaching my bunch of hoodlums at church. Thursday is an IMPORTANT day (see below) and Friday I had already asked off to see my bubba play a little baseball! =) GO EAGLES! So there you have it. A week off! YAY!
- IT'S MY BIRTHDAY WEEK!!!! I will celebrate my birthday this Thursday!! March 22 is only the second most important day of the year! Its only behind Jesus's birthday of course! =) I will be turning the ripe old age of 21. I will most likely spend my day in class for 2 hours, eat lunch with some important people, take a nap =), and spend time with my sweet boy as soon as he gets off! And hopefully this weekend, we will do a little more celebrating by spending thime with Chad's family. Though its not most people's way of spending their 21st birthday, I think it's PERFECT and wouldn't change it for anything! =) It's right up my alley for sure!
So there are a FEW reasons why this week is going to be pretty awesome!
I am now too excited to sleep! =)
Hey Kristen! I heard about your surgery and uncomfortable recovery. I hope that speeds up for you and you're back to normal before long! That is SO very sweet of you to be on the search for a ring in honor of Mother. I hope you find the perfect one! You will have to post a picture on here when you get it!
ReplyDeleteHey Curly! Im super ready to be back to normal! Its has been no fun at all. I certainly will post a picture of the ring! I am planning on getting a birthstone ring. (I may cheat and get blue topaz instead of aquamarine. Its such a brighter blue!) I've gotten one picked out from Kay's but am definitely going to look around at different options first!
