Yes...I'm Alive

So the emails are flooding into my in box asking if everything is ok with me. In one word "yes" things are going well, I'm alive and good.

I'm so sorry that I haven't posted in over a week. That is a little unusual for me but here is why. Since last Thursday I have been in Youngstown visiting my friends and running around trying to see everybody that I want to see before I have to go back to Michigan on Monday. I'm having a wonderful time and I actually have 'lots' to blog about just haven't had the time to sit down and write. I'm spending my time between two of my best friends Jennie and Lora and each of them have kids so I have been playing with the boys during at night and spending time with each of them after the kids have gone to bed.

I also wanted to let you all know another little detail about my date "T". Well he lives in Youngstown as well. I've been spending lots of time with T and things are going really well. We spent all day together on Saturday and had a great day. Like I said before I have no idea where this will go, but for now things are going very well and I'm really enjoying getting to know T more.

Oh yeah then there is this little detail that of course would only happen to me. While at Jennies on Saturday we had a little party and I started to get a sore throat, but figured it was just from being around some cigarette smoke that I'm not used to. I felt yucky on and off on Sunday and we all just bummed around the house in our p'js. It was great just to be a bum. Yesterday I woke up and felt like complete crap, yet somehow managed to make a big dinner for about 10 people. My throat was killing me all day, I still thought nothing of it, just a bad cold. Well this morning I woke up and could not even swallow. My throat felt like there was a million pins jabbing me. I woke up this morning with tears in my eyes and figured I should make a trip to the DR. I went to a little walk in clinic since I can no longer see my family Dr I once had here. Needless to say I have a gross nasty case of strep throat. Yeah Me!! Who goes for a visit to see their friends and gets strep throat...it can only happen to me!! Just my luck!

I promise I will update my blog tomorrow. Like I've said I have lots to blog about just need to find the time. However I think with this strep throat thing I will be sitting around at Jennie's house tomorrow. I will update then. I just didn't want anyone to think I was leaving the blogging world. I just have been busy having fun for a change.

Talk to you all really soon!!

Oh my strep is the worst I get it about twice a year and it really sucks. I'm so sorry you are sick. I'm glad that you are having a great time and I can not wait to hear more about T. I have been thinking about you often and hoping that you are doing better. You sound like a new woman and that is great. I can't wait for updates from your week. Have fun!!!

I hope you feel better soon. I was not sure if you were out of town or not. Glad to hear things are great. Alyce and I were barking at Bo's picture. I know silly.

Hope you're feeling better. I'm dying to know one little detail. Is T the coach that was such a special friend right after Shawn went to heaven? I hope that's okay to ask...

Back when you were first sharing about how that friend was such a great listener and understood so well, I kind of wondered if God might do something there in the months to come. I couldn't help but try to connect the dots???
