in between sniffles and wheezes
Tuesday, December 13, 2005

I've been feeling a bit under the weather the past few days. It started with some sniffles. Now I'm no longer just sniffling but wheezing and coughing. I can't damn breathe, and so now I don't just sound like a frog, but a frog with colds. How terrible can that be, huh? I can't even stand to hear my own voice.

I was a bit late with my submission for Robin's kit this week. I couldn't find the right photos to scrap, but after Sunday's dinner, I am now fully armed and ready to make layouts. Here's the one I made using the double up kit by Robin and MandaBean, So Corny. Such fun colors and elements in this kit, and I sooo love the alphas!


LOL!!! Isn't that face just priceless?!? When Chloe was here last Sunday, she was prancing and playing all over the house. All of a sudden, she just stood still and became quiet. Apparently, she "had to go" in her nappies, and I am so thrilled that I captured the moment with my Rebel XT! Man, that look of concentration on her face is just too cute! Such a poopyface!

I think I forgot to tell you that I already gave the iPod to Mr. S Tuesday last week. What can I say....HE ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT! He was so surprised, and when he realized what it was, I swear, his eyes were the size of saucers. LOL! Of course, now he can't seem to live without the damn thing. I'm quite sure those earphones have managed to glue themselves to his ears. The irritating thing about it is now I find myself having to repeat everything I'm saying because he never hears me the first time. AND he hasn't even let me borrow the damn thing too! LOL!!! I've totally created a monster.

I'm having a small birthday dinner this Sunday here at home. Just immediate family, really. Mine and Mr. S's. We haven't all been together since the wedding in April, so I think this'll be good and fun. I've been thinking about what to serve, and I think I'd love a surf and turf dinner. We could have some steak, grilled prawns, stuffed squid, mashed potatoes...hmmmm...oh, and asparagus wrapped in bacon for appetizers! Yummmmm!!! And maybe tiramisu for dessert? It's a pretty heavy dinner, so maybe I could just have fresh fruits with cream. I'm going to be a total pig on Sunday! LOL!

Not feeling particularly joyed about celebrating my birthday though. I think it comes with age. I also stopped knowing my age somewhere after I turned 25. So when people ask, it turns out to be like a pop quiz for me and I literally have to count in my mind to determine what my age is. *sigh* Even gifts dwindle as you age. You notice that? It's like people think adults have less capabilities to open gifts and so they're spared the task. Oh, and don't even get me started on having a birthday that's close to Christmas! That's just the pits.

Ok, so I'm totally not feeling well and my own post is even starting to depress me. LOL! I'm wheezing my way out of here. G'night y'all!

Hi Tin, I think you have the same birthday as Matthew's (Dec 21) and I can relate with having a bday close to Xmas :D Your day is always in competition with the BIG day LOL.
 
Oh my goodness...despite the subject (poopy) of the layout, it's so adorable! Love the colors! And you're right, those alphas are so cute! Might have to invest in that kit!

Hope you enjoy your birthday outing and get to feeling better!
 
get well soon, tin. :) happy birthday! :)
 
Happy birthday to you!! I'm glad Mr. S loved the ipod.. they are so great to have. I hope you feel better soon!
 
who wouldn't love an ipod? :) great choice for a gift, tin! i hope you feel better soon, what with your birthday coming up. have a great one!
 
Feel better soon and definitely in time for your birthday! That's a cutie patootie layout for sure, poopy or no poopy, LOL. I've devolved into a baby talkiing mess for no apparent reason, guess that means it's time to go, LOL!
 
hi tin! get well soon and grab more energy for your up-coming birthday celebration. hope you get the best of everything...i'm loving the humor, as always:D
 
Hi Tin,

Your comment about having to repeat yourself because of the iPod made me laugh. :)
Hope you're feeling better.
