It's December

December 1st. Sammie has yet, another fun dress-up day at school. Today is Cowboy Day. She had her outfit panned for a week. Olivia got a new pair of shoes because she was complaining of hers being worn out. The ones that were brand new on the first day of school? Yep. A hole in the botton already. How do shoes wear out so fast? With Sammie motivated by Cowboy Day and Olivia by new shoes, the girls were not only up before my alarm went off, but they had breakfast, brushed their teeth, fixed their hair, got dressed, and packed up their backpacks before my alarm had ever even gone off.

Then at exactly 6:59 they were in the backyard dribbling basketballs.

At 7:10 they were crying about being bored.

Then they got the markers out and time slipped by and we had to run to catch the bus.

I'm loving the cooler weather now. I'm loving my kids. Loving my husband. Most of my Christmas shopping is done. I'm not trying to brag about it. It's just a fact and I love online shopping. As far as my health...I've been slowly improving. I can't even tell a difference in the day to day. But I notice that I'm doing more now than I was 3 months ago. My strength is slowly coming back. Ever so slowly. I have good days and bad. My doctor is saying that I have a "Fibromyalgia probably caused by an illness which may have possibly been Valley Fever (A fungal infection)" How's that for a diagnosis? I still feel confident that I will get better and life goes on.
