:Musings:

No commentary this week either — I’ve been put on sick leave by my Dr because of some cold virus. This is the second time in 6 weeks that I got this. I’m supposed to go back work tomorrow but I still can’t talk. 😦 . Despite the discomfort of this virus, I’m still thankful this week for:

Not being a cold virus causality. With the numbers being what they are, it’s hard to believe so many people have died this winter from influenza and cold viruses. I’ll definitely take the discomfort over death.
Being able to rest. True, Nyquil played a big part in giving me that rest but I’m thankful for the down-time.
I was kinda cranky from the virus so I bought myself a small treat so I could learn a new technique. Tunisian crochet, here I come. It’s not much but I’m grateful that I’m able to treat myself.
Lovely reminder: a beautiful way to end the old week and start the new. 😀

– A very sweet email from my e-pal Nizzy.

Hope you each had a wonderful week!

I’m just going to skip commentary this week because while the beginning started well, the end wasn’t so great at all.

Blessings this week:

Words of Wisdom that really hit home. It is a great reminder of why I should continue to do my blessings posts.

Life lessons that reminded me that when life gives you lemons, you really should make lemonade (and continue to pray).
Having the skill-set and know how to take down my dread-locs by myself. It’s taking long (hence the lack of crafty posting) but being able to do it saved me from paying a salon between $200.00 — $500.00 dollars. I thought I’d be done this weekend but events at the end of the week ate into my take down time so I’ll be rocking the vagrant look this week as well. At least I’m on the home stretch, almost done!
A love package on the way from my mom. In it is home-made black cake and W.I fudge. Yummsers!!!! I can’t wait to get it! 😀 And by the way … my momma’s cake is the best ever!!! Just sayin’ 😛 It’s usually a Christmas treat but since I need some home loving, she sent me one via my cousin. The fudge is being made by a family friend and I love that she’s added peanuts to mine. Just the way I like it! 😀
