sick and tired

so with a boy home from school with a bad cough and sore throat,

i have been busy making gourmet, comfort foods which sometimes go untouched...

been doing lots and lots of long overdue laundry.

i think my washer and dryer have been going non stop

for two days straight now...

and even got caught up on the ironing, 

so we arent scrambling sunday morning looking for an ironed white shirt.

i like days like these.

and i kinda like having a sick boy at home.

i like feeling foreheads and making comfy beds on the couch.

i start to nest...

and focus on my homemaking skills for some reason.

and i was really tempted to even make banana bread,

because i have a bunch of spotted, deep yellow ones on the counter...

i dont think i can resist banana bread.

ever.

so i made cornbread muffins.

now, those are easy to pass up.

yuk.

found it

this is the brides room of the venue we found for emma's reception.

i am in wedding mode now.

kinda fun till the nightmares start.

and they will start, believe me.

i will wake up in a cold sweat, after visions of me

forgetting to make wedding bouquets 

then frantically running around trying to put something together out of nothing.

wish me luck.

and all you people out there who even remotely know me...

and those who i call my sisters...

you are hereby recruited to help me through this.

who wants to be on the wedding committee?

i guarantee it will be fun!
