I'm walking on sunshine

...and don't it feel good!?!?!

It's about freakin' time that we have summer, well really spring since we seemed to miss that all together! And after our last week with Shelby so sick and us feeling a bit under the weather ourselves I am just so thankful to be feeling good (well besides my allergies kicking in) and to be enjoying the beautiful weather!

Yesterday Shelby & I went over to visit our friends. She & Kylie are a few months apart (Kylie was born in August, Shelby in November). It was so much fun to watch them interact. At one point the two girls were over on the swingset and I overheard them talking about their boyfriends...What!?!!???!???! My LORD-Y! They are too young for that!!!

Ooh, the pain! My chest!! My chest hurts!! I think I am having a heart attack!!! My daughter is growing up WAY too fast!!

Happy Birthday to Chad

And the poor guy is having one heck of a day. Shelby has been sick since Friday evening. I had no time to go out and get him a gift and we can't go out and celebrate tonight since she is still sick.

But we celebrated the best that we could. Shelby & I made cards and we improvised with the cake! (Yes, those are chocolate donuts!) Good thing that Chad & I have turned 30 in the last few years and Shelby had a third birthday!

Our Day in the ER

Not how I wanted to spend my Sunday afternoon, let me tell you that!!

So here is the story:

Friday night as we are driving home Shelby says her tummy hurts. No big deal, she says this a lot. Well a bit later she jumps off the couch, covers her mouth and high tails it to the potty. And so our FUN weekend began. From that point on Shelby had it coming out both ends until today. Well we thought we were finally through it until she was sick again this AM, had a fever and was very lethargic. So off to the ER we went.

And 6 hours later we have nothing to really say except that what she has is just viral. Were we over-reacting? I don't know but I would rather be safe then sorry. For those of you that know as well, we are not ones to over-react. So you can understand Shelby really had to be out of sorts for us to do this.

You wanna know the worst part? I almost brought along my camera so I could take pic's to scrapbook later! Oh but have no fear! Chad & I both took pic's w/our camera phones and I have her wristband and the stickers she got after the x-ray to scrapbook !

Okay, I just wanna go take a nap.

Pederslie's Money Pit - Day 1,456

Okay, so it really has not been that many days since we started our house projects...it just seems like it!

I know it has been awhile since I have posted any updates. What can I say..I am lazy..and there really hasn't been that much to post - at least not any cool before/during/after pic's. Until now!!!!!!

I thought I would post some pic's I alraedy have so you can see before/after pic's.

And away we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!...................





Sorry about the teeny pic's...But believe me...after the hassle I have gone through this is it! I don't know how many tries it took me to finally post all of these pic's! Have I mentioned lately that I HATE computers!!!!?????!!!!

Calgon, take me away! Far, far away.....

Ugh, I do not wrong with me. I am in such a funk and I have no idea why or how to get out of it! I am just very irritable, frustrated, tired, bored.....And all I want to do is go shop!! Unfortunately then I would be even more dispressed and/or frustrated when the bill came for the credit card!!!!! It is like no one can do anything to please me. It either ticks me off or upsets me. I have this HUGE, I mean GIGANTIC, pile of clothes to put away and every night I just put it off because I have no energy and the clothes just multiply. So then the next day I am depressed because the pile is still there AND has gotten larger all on its very own!! Oh and then my freakin' computer is crappin' out on me!! It keeps losing internet connection then it defaulted my user ID so I had lost all my email. I restored the computer and my email is back but I am sure this is not the end of the problems. It just makes me wanna cry.......

But enough about my funk. Today was Fathers Day. Shelby gave daddy a coffee mug with an insert that she colored herself. She did very well at keeping within the lines and daddy LOVED it. She also went around yesterday and collected rocks from the yard. Well then she put them in a box and made a card for daddy. Daddy got the rock collection. He was, uh, so thrilled. But he said he will use them for our fountain when it finally goes in. It was cute!

On that note, I think I am going to go lay down.

Nothing new really....

Nothing new to talk about really. I am SICK of this rain!! It is almost summer for gods sake and it's only 56 degrees!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need to find a sunny place to go.

So this past weekend I went to Coeur D'Alene for a Girls weekend. This is our 3rd year. It is my friend Yvonne and my friend Summer from high school. Summer lives in Lewiston so we meet somewhere in between. My MIL gets us a condo. It is SO much fun! Last year we got mani's and this year we got massages and facials/body scrubs. Oh it was so nice!


Then we got some lovely entertainment from our next door neighbors and upstairs neighbors. The people next door decided to have a fight at 4:30 am on Saturday. I wanted to get up early but not that early and not by some people fighting! Then Saturday night we heard all this thumping from upstairs. Then we realized we could hear stuff through the fireplace so we listened in! We are entertained SO easily!!


Other then that I am still in my funk. It must be the weather. I am just lethargic, bored, depressed, confused, frustrated, hungry, itchy, in pain, mad, goofy, stupid...and on and on and on.......

I think it is time for me to end this now. Hopefully my next post will be entertaining! We are also close to finishing our house projects. Well we still have to finish the siding, mortar the rocks, paint, trim, landscaping...Hmm, maybe we aren't so close.....But it shouldn't be too much longer!! I can't wait!
