Thank you my dear friends for praying and sending all that positive energy my way.  The hubby worked very hard to get called back, but all the good vibes sent our way sure didn't hurt matters.  I feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends and an amazing family.  I'm feeling better after getting over another bout of shingles, at least I know what they feel like now. LOL  It really knocked me on my butt for a few days, but today has been the best day all week.

I had to do a little dancing and singing to Matchbox 20 today in celebration of the stress leaving my home.  It was so much fun.  The boy got into it also.  I smoked some chicken on the smoker, yummy.  I also planted a lot of flowers and maybe overdid it, but I'm too elated to worry about it.  Tristan is at a birthday party, peace.  It was supposed to start at 4, but they let him come over at 1.  That is how I got so much done today, cleaning, feeding, and planting.  Best of all, I'm going to have a quiet soak and shave my legs.  Might have to crank up the weedeater for that one. LOL 

I knew I was under stress, but I wasn't aware of how much stress.  Now that the stress is taking a hike, I realize how terrible it is for our bodies.  Can we say shingles?  I'm too young for shingles.  I do a lot of destressing, but it seems I can never get rid of all of it.  I don't feel stressed right now, thank goodness.  That tub is calling my name, better get to it before the boy gets back.  Woo hoo.
