Since I’ve been blogging, I have learned a lot about the world. My humble blog has had views from a few places I’d never heard of before. Today it was Mayotte.
Every time I see a place I don’t recognize, I make a point to find out about it. I love to investigate and research, so spread the word (and the blog link) around so I can continue to learn new things!
I’m sure most people know how I feel about needles. Fortunately, Ysabela is fine with having blood drawn. I leave the room every time the “mosquito” person enters the room. I know my limitations.
Due to running out of her thyroid meds, Bela’s numbers were all out of whack—totally my fault for not getting her there on time for blood work and a refill. We have the prescription in hand and an appointment for exactly one month from today. This will be back under control ASAP. Nobody’s perfect.
I had the chance to have a leisurely day yesterday. I enjoyed the luxury of sleeping late, sipping my coffee and checking email while the rest of the inhabitants of the house continued with their beauty sleep. After my initial slothfulness, I took a shower, loaded trash and headed to my only appointment scheduled for the day (unless you count a hungry horse). You may wonder why I showered before taking out the trash. Good question, but relatively simple to answer. I had an appointment for a massage at 11:30.
A lady in town operates Sandhills Horizon Massage. She, Rebecca W., was kind enough to offer teachers a free 30-minute massage! I wasn’t about to let my certificate expire! I learned that the muscles in my forearm were stuck together. I spend a lot of time writing and typing, so it makes sense. My session was so very relaxing that I plan to make it a regular treat. My daughter will enjoy one in the very near future.

Jinx sure looks comfy.
Bela just had to bring that panda downstairs.
It was really nice to check my closet this morning and find something I wanted to wear. Ever since my trip to Maurice’s, it’s been less stressful getting ready for school. I combined something “old” with something new. Thanks to Grace for taking this picture.
Excuse the clutter, but I was pressed for time, so I made Bela take this picture.
Thanks to our local librarian (Julie), I have discovered a Nebraska author I love! Her books are amazing mysteries, and I have nearly read my way through her entire Maggie O’Dell series. When I have more time, I’ll review one of her books for you. In the meantime, you should check her out for yourself. You won’t regret it.
If you watch Nick Cannon’s Wild ‘N Out, you’ll recognize the reference on my shirt.
I used one of my pretty shirts that Michaela (at Maurice’s) helped me choose with a nice pair of pants my mom sent me. I looked pretty snazzy (if I do say so myself).
I’m always searching for cool things to try, so my first adventure (for Bela) was LootCrate. My friend, Lisa, was telling me how cool it was, so we tried it.
I stumbled upon the Try the World boxes recently, and when I got the “buy the Japan box, get the Paris box free,” I figured it was as good a time as any to give Try the World a shot. Our box of food came today! It was heavier than I had anticipated, but I took it home joyfully.
Our lavender honey had leaked a bit in the Paris box, but the seal was intact.
The Paris box had some neat items.
