This may not be good. Dave and I went to church this morning. I was so tired, I told Dave that I don't think I've every been that tired before! So I came home earlier than he did and sat in my recliner. I fell asleep shortly after he arrived home...and I didn't wake up until 6:00 PM. You know that even short naps affect me, so I can't imagine what a long nap is going to do.
I know that I'm calling my doctor's office in the morning to see if I can get in to get some meds. I feel like they're going to yell at me for waiting so long. But our head trainer at ISU always said that colds will go away in about 10 days with or without medicine, so I was just going without. Unfortunately I think I'm going to have to have some medication just to get this crap out of my lungs! Yuck.

It was a good day for...
A wedding!! We went to Aaron & Sheryl's wedding at our church. The fellowship hall was turned into a beautiful red and white wonderland! There was red everywhere!! The bride was beautiful and the groom was handsome - I'm not sure I've seen the sanctuary look any more beautiful! When a bride has red for one of her colors, the red in our church really pops! The meal following the ceremony was wonderful. We had ziti, chicken alfredo, or lasagna, plus tossed salad and fruit kabobs! Then there was a wonderful cake AND Sheryl had made truffles - red velvet and chocolate! Wonderful!
It was also a good day for football. My Cyclones went into Fort Worth to play the #13 ranked Horned Frogs. We won! We beat them 37-23 and it was on the road no less! Way to go Cyclones!
My cough is still nasty. I took some cough syrup with codeine today before the wedding. It seemed to loosen my congestion a bit. I really need to get in to see a doctor and get some medicine, I think. I can't even imagine being on vacation coughing like I am. I hope I still get to go to Wisconsin...

Cold & Windy!
Yep, the furnace is on at the Frushour residence. It was cold today - in fact our house was reading 65, so I turned the furnace on at 69 degrees. It's better in here this evening! We've got an old barn of a house, so when it's cold and windy, it's cold and somewhat windy inside, too! I'm not a fan of this kind of weather! I want the 70's to come back!! At one point, it was 43 here and 86 in Largo...yes, I'm ready to go south!
We had PEO today - 25 members present!! It was a good meeting with lots of participation. Our Autumn Blessings project will go until the new year! I'm excited to see how it goes over!!
I wanted to share a couple of cards with you today. These are made with all Stampin' Up products!! These are basically the same card, just a few variables on them. The first one is done in fall colors and I only had room for 3 flowers.
This one is done in spring/summer colors and I stamped the flowers to where I got 5 of them, which is what our demo had! I really, really like these cards. The stamp is from Reason to Smile...and they make me smile. How about you?
I worked in my studio today and was able to put the finishing touches on 39 cards. Sometimes when I make cards for class, I don't put sentiments on the inside. So, that's mainly what I did today. My card box is now full, so I think I'll take some of my finished cards and sell them at The Ranch when I get there. Maybe someone will see my cards and decide they'd like to have classes...hmmmm.
Tomorrow Dave is working Habitat and I'm working on cards for class on the 9th. Then at 4:00 we have a wedding and at 5:00 we have to have the '56 Chevy downtown for the History Walk. Busy, busy!!

Good Day!
Today was one of those icky fall days - a little bit of rain and not very warm! I guess maybe fall really is here. I preferred the 70s and sunshine!!
Even with the yucky weather, it was a good day. Dave and I ate our lunch and went to church to work at the monthly food pantry. When we left a little after 5:00 we'd served 102 families! There were many faces that I didn't recognize from months past. We were really busy. The best news of all is that we had enough toilet paper to give everyone 4 rolls of TP!! Yay! I'm really proud of our parishioners!! They exceeded my goal!!

Rest at last!
Hip, hip, hooray!! I finally slept last night! Boy, did I sleep!! I went to sleep around 11:00 and awakened around 9:00 this morning!! PLUS, this afternoon, I fell asleep again - for 2 hours! I'm taking a pill tonight if I can't go to sleep!! My cold finally is getting to a point where I am not coughing so much, so I'm able to sleep at last!!
Obviously I didn't do much today - I was too busy sleeping. We did get to have lunch with Sudi & Howard and that was fun! It's been a while since the 4 of us were together!! Dave and I also went to church tonight for the first Weds. night meal. Some of the church people fixed it and it was scrumptious! They fixed baked spaghetti and chicken pot pie and had green beans & garlic bread on the side! We stopped at Grahams and bought black raspberry ice cream for our portion of the dessert. Great meal!
Now I'm home and looking at my desk - what a mess! I was able to get a SU order placed, and the mail opened, but other than that - nothing. Tomorrow I've got to get busy! I will be at church around 2:00 to get ready for our FPC Food Closet food giveaway, then tomorrow night is the IHCC Retirees' dinner. Busy times!!

Made it!!
I made it through this busy, busy day!! It all started with making cards at 8:30 this morning! I'm not a morning person, but I made it anyway! Beautiful cards, too!! Then I came home and made a big pot of chili and did dishes. Dave cleaned the dryer and the dryer vents for the season. My next appointment was at 3:30 and it was wonderful - it was a massage! I really, really needed it!! At 5:15 I had a personnel meeting at church and at 7:00 I had sorority. Home at 8:30. Twelve hours packed full!
I got home in time to watch most of DWTS and again I'm very disappointed in America's fascination with Bristol Palin. She has no musicality, people! I can dance better than she can! Sad that she's still on the show and Joey went home. He's got more talent in his little toe than she does in her entire body. Plus she's an ice princess! She doesn't act like she's having fun at all. OK, I'll quit!!

Monday's Musings
This morning, I got up about 7:30, which means I got about 4 hours of sleep! I know I was still awake at 3:30; I just don't know how much longer I stayed awake! That's what happens when I take a nap during the day - grrrrrrr! I so needed to sleep - I believe that sleeping will help me get over this crud that Dave so generously shared with me!! I'm sure glad I don't "feel" sick - I just sound like a frog (I'm croacking everything I say!!)
Bible Reading Time was great. We had Pastor David and then another Pastor, Jane, in attendance too. It's good to have two pastoral viewpoints when you're trying to understand Bible stories. We only got through 19 verses today, but we had some issues with understanding the story of Jesus and the woman at the well.
I made it to the chiropractor this morning before BRT and I even made it to a "junk" store to see if I could find a lid for my slow cooker. That place was awful! I thought I might have to go take another shower after having been in there. It was a total mess. I went to Salvation Army after that, but they're only open on Wed & Fri due to a shortage of help.
This afternoon, there were 10 of us in the lounge at church making Autumn Blessings bags. We got 96 of them made, which should be enough for about 3 meetings of blessings! Hopefully, we'll be able to raise some good $$ for the PEO Projects!!
Tonight I watched DWTS and boy was it good! It's definitely living up to being an All Star season! Bristol should be gone after tonight. She is completely out of her element trying to compete against some of these All-Stars! As far as I'm concerned, she has no musicality at all!!
We found out tonight that the place next door to us sold already, so that one's not available any more. We're going to have neighbors on both sides of us this year!! We still have one more to look at and our friends say it is really nice. We'll check it out when we get there unless it sells early too. Well, tomorrow's another busy day, but at least there's a massage in there sometime. Hope I sleep tonight!
