I’m BAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

Man, my blog is turning into one of those hopelessly boring blogs that never gets updated. But I swear I have my reasons!

First, I’ve been soooo sick. Ugh. It started w/ a drug reaction…basically a new med that I was taking made it take longer for the muscle spasm med to clear my body…essentially overdosing. So, I slept. Alot. *I* was going to bed at 10pm!!! (Um, I normally go to bed around 1 or 2 am. Sad, I know). So once we figured that out, I stopped taking the new med, and the pharmacist let me know that it could take up to a month for it to clear my body. Double Ugh. It is getting better. It does still make me sleepy, but gradually better. THEN I got some AWFUL bug and landed in the hospital for half a day. Let’s just say I did #2 about 20 times in 3 hours = dehydration. My heart rate was REALLY slowing down, so I made Chris take me in so I could get rehydrated. 2 1/2 liters of fluid, some Zofran (for nausea), and alotta Fentanyl later, I was a weeee bit better. That’s been about 1 1/2 weeks ago. Still can’t eat much greasy food, but I’m basically recovered.

Then I went on a Getaway. :)

I spent 4 days this past weekend at the beach on a Scrapbook Getaway w/ 18 other girls. And after the previous 2 weeks I’ve had, boy did I need it! I got 5 layouts, a necklace, a pair of earrings, 4 canvas paintings (for Em’s big girl room), and 1/2 a calendar done. :) Maybe my mojo has FINALLY returned! Not to mention the tons of laughs, laps in the heated pool, and late nights in the hot tub. There is nothing my body needed more than this past weekend!!!

Here’s a few pics!

And, yes, I was a nutella virgin until Friday evening. But no longer. Man, that stuff is good. Especially when smeared onto PUMPKIN FUDGE!

This is Wilson and his kid. Everyone was trying to bribe me w/ gifts of pumpkin in order to win the Hambly giveaway, and this was one of the bribes (along w/ the coolest pumpkin straw, the pumpkin fudge, and pumpkin taffy!) I can’t remember who named him, but he became ‘Wilson.’ By the end of the weekend, I even painted my hand red and smeared it on him. hehe

And finally, the Pumpkin Queen. Yes, I am obsessed.
