Day 2 - Orange Cupcakes

Well, as you can see, I made orange cupcakes! They are really good too. Dont worry, I have only had 2 of them. One yesterday and one today. If you havent figured it out by now, orange is my favorite color. I think it is weird that orange is my favorite color, but besides the actual fruit, I hate the taste of orange. Huh, go figure!
It is day 2 of my blog and I am already having trouble thinking of things to put on here. I hope it isnt like this the ENTIRE month. There are some things I would like to get off of my chest, but I would like my blog to be positive, delightful, and full of fun and surprises. Nothing negative or depressing, or talking bad about others. Hopefully the more you get to know me, the more you will find out that I always want to have fun. Of course I know when the time to be responsible and serious is, but its not ALL the time.
Tonight I am making goulash with garlic bread. And for dessert, CUPCAKES, of course!!!! Since it is Wednesday, Katie will most likely be eating with us too. I spend most Wednesdays up at the church with Katie so I make supper for us when Bubbers gets here. I dont think I will get much done on the library today. Sunday starts our new quarter in Sunday school and we are busy with things to get that ready. Saturday I will post pictures of the new classroom. I dont remember if I have put pics of it up before, but we have a sky in our classroom and this quarter we are going to "make it snow"!!! Oh, I hope it turns out good. I cant wait to see how it comes out. Thats all for now. Tootles!!!

Pain Pain Go Away!

Well I have been down for the count since Saturday night. I ended up going to the ER on Monday morning. They had to do a small, but horribly painful procedure on me to relieve pressure and ended up having to pack it, which causes more pressure! I have to go back Wednesday night to the hospital to get it unpacked and see if they have to actually do something that I would have to go into the hospital for. God willing I will be home Wednesday night.
The pain from all of this is so horrible I cant do anything for myself. I am so blessed that we were able to move into town and become neighbors with my friend Katie. She is right there when I need something. And right there to yell at me for doing things I am not suppose to do right now...lol. Trust me, she gets on my case the same way I do her!!! She came and watched a movie with me, took my mind off of stuff for a little while. Even brought me cookies! Now what could be better than cookies!? lol
Dave works 2 jobs and we cant afford to take any time off so it really is a blessing to have the Mathenas so close to me now. Please continue to pray not just for this episode, but that I can continue to lose weight and be approved for the bypass. The doctor said that this will keep happening until the weight is gone. I guess the cookies dont really help the situation does it? lol

Picture Perfect Day

I had a real nice day today with Katie at the church. We worked on the library we are trying to get going. We got ALOT of books done today, but there is still alot more to do. But anyone who knows us, knows that when Katie and I get together it is NEVER all work...lol. She has been asking me for weeks now to take pictures of her and one thing or another always got in the way and it never got done. I think it would have been really pretty to take them outside or something with all of the beautiful leaves chaning colors, but we waited too long and now it is cold and windy. But they cam e out beautiful anyways.
Last night my power kept going out so I didnt get any sleep. I was afraid that the power would stay out and Dave wouldnt wake up for work so I stayed up for him. Even though I was horribly tired today, we had a very nice time and I even got y bedroom unpacked tonight!
