Friday Funny!

Still recovering from surgery. It's going really well. The first week was easier than the second which seems a little strange to me, but it's still very manageable as long as I take it easy. I am grateful that my mom and sister are here to take care of things while I heal. They have been such a huge blessing.

This weeks Friday Funny takes me back to my childhood. In 1993 a new candy was brought to the US from Tiawan. They were called Warheads; a crazy sour candy that my friends and I would stick in our mouths and try not to make a face while eating it. The rules of our game stated you could not bite the candy and had to suck on it until it became sweet. I was pretty good at it back then although I'm sure I wouldn't fair as well now.

Have a great weekend!

The surgery went well! So far I feel pretty good and seem to be recovering very well. I have my mom and my sister here taking very good care of me and my family and after they go home my wonderful in laws are coming. We are very excited.

My recovery should take about six weeks before my doctor will allow my to start picking up my baby girl and returning to normal daily activity.

Until then I will enjoy the fruits of my children's halloween labors! Have a great weekend!

Friday Funny!

In four days I go under the knife. I'm a bit nervous, but I'm hoping this will solve my pain problems. The recovery period is longer than I would like, but I'm hoping it will pay off in the end. I'm not sure what kind of condition in will be in the next few weeks, but I am hoping to get book two finished if possible during my down time.

On a different note I had a fabulous Halloween. My kids loved trick or treating and my husband truly enjoyed scaring the kids that came trick or treating at our house. Now, I have to control myself and not eat all my kids candy while putting away the Halloween decorations which if you've ever been to my house on Halloween you know is an all day task. Thank goodness my husband is such a big help.

Now onto the Friday Funny. This is to celebrate the end of my favorite season. This is the type of thing my husband and I would do to scare our trick or treaters. Enjoy!

I must be getting soft in my old age, but while I was searching for my Friday Funny I found this video. I love this video. It makes me smile and if I wasn't such a tough son of a gun it might have even made me cry. Yeah, I might be feeling a little emotional tonight.

Okay, so now that I have you all softened up here is your Friday Funny! You might wonder why I find this funny and all I can say is Wendy, my sister-in-law. She hates spiders and just thinking of her watching this makes me laugh.

Have a great weekend! Especially you Wendy.

Friday Funny!

I know, I know it's a little late. I have been thinking about it all day, but the day has been busy and this is the first time I've had a moment to myself. We have been cleaning and trying to organize the house. For those of you who don't know I've been having a lot of back pain with sciatica which has caused a great deal of pain when I sit or stand or bend or twist or..you get the idea. It has made writing very difficult. I've been receiving treatment  to help with the pain, but nothing has worked. I have now exhausted all my non-surgical options which is why I am getting surgery next month. Not thrilled about it, but hoping for the best.

 Anyway, that is why I am trying to get the house pulled together. It may be several months before I am back on my feet again. The good thing is I have great family support so I can take the time I need to heal and know that my home and family will be taken care of. The bad news is book two's release date is being pushed out. I am so sorry for those of you who have been waiting for it. It is still going to happen, but like most things in my life, not on the time table I had hoped for.

I have been asked why I don't write laying down and the answer is; I do. It's just not as easy as it sounds. It's not comfortable and it's hard to write when I'm uncomfortable which slows down the process. I am still making progress and I want this book to be the best it possibly can so I refuse to just rush through it just so I can get it out. Thank you for being so patient with me. I will get it done.

Now, on to the Friday Funny. I was going to pick a scary video and call it Scary Friday Funny, but after watching several videos I started getting a little freaked out.Some of those videos are super creepy! I decided if I was going to get any sleep tonight I had better stick to funny. I hope you all have a great weekend!

Friday Funny!

I don't know why, but just the sight of a Jack-o-latern makes me smile. This week for Halloween Wednesday we did a pumpkin theme. We carved pumpkins, played a few pumpkin games, roasted pumpkin seeds, and made sugar cookies shaped like pumpkins.

I am loving the season!


This weeks Friday Funny is a mixture of people getting scared and funny videos. It's a little long, but I enjoyed it.

Friday Funny!

It has begun people; the best month of the year. As many of you know I love October. I love the weather, I love candy, I love scary movies and I love Halloween. I love Halloween so much that several years ago when living with the best in-laws in the world we started what is now referred to as Halloween Wednesday.

What is Halloween Wednesday you ask? Well, on Wednesday the elementary kids get out of school early so to entertain them  in the month of October we started doing Halloween themed activities. It was so much fun that we decided to continue the tradition.

Sadly, my family moved away this year. We can no longer celebrate Halloween Wednesday with the rest of the family, but to keep the tradition alive we held it on our own and then shared  pictures online of the food, projects and fun. This last Wednesday we did a Ghost theme. It was a lot of fun, especially now that we have Pinterest to give us new ideas.

Last year in October all the Friday Funnies were Halloween themed and I plan to continue the tradition. So here we go...
