I am behind on my 31 Days of every day so I am just going to do a little recap of what has been going on for the past week. Last week I was down and out with sinus problems. I was coughing so hard it would gag me, couldn’t breathe, and just all around not feeling that great. I was on so many sinus meds that I felt like I was asleep the whole week. I finally felt better on Thursday night. That was very good because we needed to pack for our trip to Illinois to visit my parents. We went up on Friday afternoon and stayed through Monday morning. It was longer than we usually stay because we went to St. Louis on Sunday for my baby cousin’s wedding. She is actually 20, but will always be my baby cousin. Anyways, On Saturday night my mom had an open house reception for us to celebrate our wedding with our friends from church. It was so great to see everyone.
This week for Stop and Smell the Roses, I wanted to take a video of some of my favorite places in Carterville, IL, some of the places I used to go when I lived there. We didn’t have time, so maybe next time we go up I can get that one. I had my mom invite the Rose family to the open house, but they couldn’t make it because they were out of town for the Tough Mudder competition. It would have been great to see Mandy, but we didn’t give very much notice. Sorry.
I hope everyone has a great week and I am looking forward to seeing what you are loving this week. P.S. I can’t believe that we only have four weeks of Stop and Smell the Roses left for this year. It doesn’t seem like the year should even be this close to being over.
