Surgery
Okay I had my tonsils out on Tuesday of this week. It is by far the worst pain that I have ever experienced. Nothing could have prepared me for it. I still can not talk correctly. And I am honestly a bit worried about that. Will I get my voice back. I feel like the the little Mermaid when she lost her voice. 
I have so many things that I want to post, but just don’t feel up to it yet. Maybe by the end of next week I will feel much better.
TIME
Here we are again in this busy season….isn’t it supposed to be fun, and relaxing, and cheerful….I feel stressed out with ALL that I have to do. We leave tomorrow for 2 weeks. And trying to pack for 6 people for 2 weeks, is hard. Plus there are all the last minute errands to do and animals to drop off. So I am just taking a moment to….breathe deeply, before I jump back into this holiday rush madness. NEXT year any family that wants to see us will have to come here.
Favorite Things
Well I know Oprah always comes out with her favorite things show at Christmas, side note: I WOULD LOVE TO BE AT THAT SHOW… So here is a list of my favorite things.
- Ralph Lauren perfume …the new fragrance is called ROCKS. Smells so good.
www.ralphlauren.com - Starbucks…I don’t even know if I could say enough about this place. I love all their drinks, love their coffee mugs, love the ambiance of it. My favorite drink is an Iced Vanilla Latte made by Holly who works at Starbucks…
www.starbucks.com - Pottery Barn…love there style of decorating.
www.potterybarn.com - Williams and Sonoma… they have a set of mixing bowls there that are awesome. I use them for all my cooking. Everything scrapes out of them very nicely. They also have some great recipes, and sauces that you can buy in the store.
www.williams-sonoma.com - Target….got to love that store. I can walk around in there for a long time…and then wonder where they time went. I love there baby diapers. I actually like them better than Huggies.
www.target.com - Hillsong…I love there music. I would love to visit there church one day and see it all for myself. My favorite album is For All You’ve Done.
www.hillsong.com - Three Forks…oh WOW there food is amazing. It is pricey, but I think every guy needs to take his wife there once a year for a special treat. There Salmon from Norway is so great.
www.3forks.com - Water…not just any water but Acqua Panna. Me and my husband went to Boston about 2 years ago and that is all they served in the restaurants… It was worth every penny. SO good. I also recently discovered another brand of water that I like it is called Glen Eagles from Scotland. They have a kickin’ bottle as well. It is yummy. It can be bought at Target. It is a little pricey… $2.oo a bottle.
www.aquamaestro.com - Panera Bread…I love there Tuna Salad Sandwich on sourdough. That makes me hungry writing about it.
www.panerabread.com - Snow Globes…Starbucks has a cute Christmas one right now.
- Banana Leaf…Oh my word they have the best Thai food ever. I love it. AND the price is not that bad. I could eat there every single night. SO YUMMY.
