Swine Flu

So, when we left to go home John Paul was sick enough I had to drive. This is a big deal, in our relationship he's the driver I'm the navigator, and it's just better that way. We are both gifted at those jobs, and it tends to be not as pleasant if we try to switch.

He coughed the whole time we were home, and couldn't really breath to sleep, so he didn't much. On the trip home(which he felt better enough to drive )I realized my throat hurt, and it turned out his mom got sick too. His dad was sick for like a day but was soon better.

After a week of being home together, not talking because it would make us cough, his dad calls and says we have the swine flu. A lot of people in Chickasha are coming to his office with it. It's been a bummer to cough a lot, but we haven't really had much of a fever. We've went on walks and enjoyed time together. It's really the best sick ever, minus we can't talk or we will cough.

So, we are a part of the pandemic oh no!

Visit home

Last week John Paul and I took a trip home to see a friend get married. It was great to see our high school friends again, and had a fun time at her reception.

I also had fun shooting with John Paul and a friend of his. I did awesome at shooting whatever we could find, which ended up being beer cans and plaster from the falling down house on the property. Well, let me tell you, that plaster had no chance lol!

I spent time shopping with mom. We had a lot of fun looking at crazy expensive jewelery and buying the wedding gift at William Sonoma.

I also got to visit with some friends from church who are pretty much like family. I went over and visited their twins who will be turning 4 soon, and their little sister just turned 2. Super cute sweet family. Mr. Clift, who taught math a the high school, in case you had his class... Any way, that was fun.

We also went to MEERS and had great burgers and BBQ.

John Paul was sick the whole time, and on the way home I started feeling crappy too. I've not went to work this week, because I'm afraid it's contagious, and I can barely talk from the coughing. His parents got it too. We all love him, but right now are bummed he got us sick!!

Knitted Handbags





So, Facebook has targeted advertisements as you know. Sometimes they think they target me, and they don't. Any way, I was going along and the were advertising KNITTED FRUIT AND VEGGIE HANDBAGS!! How could I say no to this??? So, I've made the kiwi, pea pod, and lettuce so far. Working on the beet currently. I haven't had so much fun in a long time. (yes, that's how awful Houston is)

Beach!





So, I know I haven't posted in a long time. I'm sick at home so I though I'd catch you up, if you cared.

The end of March, a dear friend from college came down to visit on her spring break. We headed down to Galveston, hoping to miss the rain, but the front followed us down the highway. She didn't come all the way from New York to not go to the beach. So we splashed around collecting shells in the rain. We also ate great food, went to a huge aquarium and had a little sun on the beach the next morning. She's great, and I really miss her! Oh, and she got pooped on by a sea gull. Really, the picture in the hat was just hilarious because she had really gotten pooped on already! Also, she ate 2 lbs of crawfish.
