Today is Thursday the 22nd and I haven't really been on here much lately. Or posted.
The reason is I've been sick or busy. I've got my final wisdom teeth surgery on Monday, hopefully! This is the third time I've had to reschedule it. Yikes!
In better news, I went swing dancing on Saturday and it was amazing! My friend and went together. More of our friends were there and I got to do some dips and leans. I still think I need some work on those particular things but they are so fun.
Spending time with my friend and swing dancing were definitely one of the best parts of last week.
Other highlights include leading small group for my middle school youth last Wednesday.
Thursday-Going out for coffee with a friend a talking for hours :)
later that same evening catching up with friends I hadn't seen since December.
Sunday I helped with youth group.
However I got sick later that night so that was really annoying. But now I have recovered.
There has been about 4-5 inches of snow this week and has been so cool!
This weekend should be a little more low key but still great.
I've got a progressive dinner Saturday night, my brother and my sister-in-law are coming up Sunday to spend the day. Later that evening is youth group.
Then Monday morning (not so fun) wisdom teeth will be pulled and hopefully it will go smoothly.
I've been writing another book lately it hasn't gotten to the main action yet but it should soon. I'll keep you updated.
Hope you all are doing well, and enjoy your weekend.
I am thinking I like this Google home screen better than yesterday's.
Anyway I have a plot map of how I want my next book to go. Subject to changes because I want to know what the kids think and what they think will be fun to read/hear. So the next book will most likely be started early in January at least that is my goal. Hoping to find a job or part time volunteer thing after I recover from my 2nd teeth surgery. So mid to late January.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day.
My friend just got engaged and is moving to Florida with his fiance.
Last night we threw a going away party. It was very fun but also bittersweet. I will miss this friend very much but I am very pleased that I got to meet the fiance. We immediately got along great. She even invited me to come over and visit which I will be sure to do.
My best friend has been in town this week and a couple days ago we spent the afternoon together. It was such blast. We ate tons of good food, caught up and watched a movie. I might get to hang out with her tomorrow before she head back home. Hopefully that happens.
My kindle came in the mail a few days ago and I LOVE it.
Today I baked 3 dozen cookies for a cookie exchange later tonight. Overall this has been a great week ^_^
Hope you all have a great weekend!
This week I had surgery to take out the 2 right wisdom teeth out of my mouth. I was very pleased at how quick and easy the surgery went. The rest of the day passed slowly, and the pain set in as I waited for the pain meds to be ready. It got so bad at one point I started crying. For those of you who don't know I hardly ever cry. Once the meds started working I was fine barely eating but okay. Until it was bedtime I had taken the evening meds then had eaten some strawberry jello and chocolate pudding. Something BAD happened. I ended up throwing up about 5 times before finally falling asleep.
This was the worst part of my entire week. The repeated throwing up. I won't go into detail. But I so so happy my moth is almost done healing.
The past few days I've done a lot of sleeping, reading, watching big bang theory and resting.
The other day I found an awesome deal on a kindle. The reading kind not the Kindle Fire. So I ordered it and it should be arriving at my house within the next 9 or so days!!
Monday afternoon I will see the the oral surgeon hopefully all is well with my healing process.
Okay breaking news! Read all about it ;)
For the first time in my life...I have finished a long story aka in this case a chapter book for children!! Hopefully the first of many since I have a few ideas floating around.
Also I have a couple people interested in reading it. Two of them are in the target age range/audience.
One is a friend of mine!
My father wants me to show the story to a friend of ours who could potentially help me get the story published!
That's the news on the story! Thank you all who have been supportive on here with your comments =D
You all have encouraged me and helped drive me to finishing it!
The only thing that is missing from the story is a title. Lol I guess that's the hardest part I plan to have illustrations and have it typed up shortly. In case I forgot to mention on here my goal was to have the first draft written in long hand before December 1st. I am very happy I got it done before my personal deadline.
Hope you all are doing well. Will update this again when I can.
