THEME: contagious


this is from a few weeks back when i was sick with the swine flu..or at least was just plain sick.
it came right about the time swine flu broke out..which wasn't the best time to be hacking, sneezing, and blowing my nose constantly while at work.


i am definitely going to have to try and find a better way of posting sketches than taking pictures of them.

KATIE TRAVELS

OK REALLY? It's been to long since I've updated. It wouldn't hurt to write things down more often.

Let's see..

I went back to Cleveland to visit with my mom before her big surgery and everything went well. It was great to see her and how well she is doing. I also got to go out one night and hang out with friends I haven't seen in years. It's good to know i have such a great group of friends that when we do get together it's like nothing at all has changed.



As always, it was hard to leave home and it didn't seem like I had visited for nearly long enough.

It wasn't much longer until I left for Knoxville to get my godmother status.
It was amazing to see how much she has grown and watch her learn to do things right before my eyes.

I had a blast just hanging out with little sweet t and laughing. I can't wait to see her again! Hopefully for her 1st birthday in August with all of my family!

Ever since I've gotten back from my traveling ways, I haven't been focused. I hurt my back last week and have been laid up for days because of the pain which lead to a lot of thinking, which made me realize I haven't been very positive or focused as of late and I really need to start working on myself. More so than ever. i have every opportunity in front of me, but do nothing about it. While reading "The Shack" by WM Paul Young, I read something that really hit home and helped me put all of this into perspective.

As "selfish" as it sounds I will start on my journey of focusing on myself and infusing positivity in my life..for my own good and for the betterment of other people. That's that! I'm tired of being all talk and no action.

MOM UPDATE:

It's always nice to know how much people you hardly even know have your best interest and truly care.
My mom's surgery was a success! I am so grateful. Now we are just waiting for her to wake up.
Thanks to everyone who sent positive vibes our way.

Really, hospitals are filled with very strange and unhappy people...it makes for good people watching though.

ERRRGH!!!

so now that I have my brand spankin' new laptop I thought I'd be able to fiddle more with my blog. Not so much. I am entirely frustrated so it will be in limbo until I decide otherwise!
