Hello...

First of all, I want to thank all my dear readers for the kind sentiments regarding my Grandma. She was a wonderful lady and is going to be missed. The funeral was yesterday and it was just lovely. Lots of tears but laughter too. Our family doesn't do somber really well so it was fun to see family we haven't seen in years and to share fun stories about my Grandma.
Sadly though I was really sick yesterday, I woke up feeling like a truck ran over me. I was sick to my stomach and threw up a few times. blech! I pulled myself together to last through the funeral but then as soon as it was over I was back home and climbed into bed. Not fun. Although I did get to finally watch LOST and T brought me over some Sprite and Saltine crackers. Thankfully, I'm feeling better today. I stepped on the scale and i lost 4.5 lbs from being sick. Worst diet ever!
It is nice to be home on a Friday though... reading, writing thank you letters, enjoying all the flowers I took home from the funeral. Including a lovely basket my co-workers sent over. They are the best people ever!
I hope you all have a sickness-free weekend, full of all the lovely things that make you happy.

Sorry to hear about your Grandmother Sabrina. One of the things we have said on my dad's side of the family - is we only seem to see each other at funerals over the last few years. While it is a very sad occasion, it is a time to also reconnect with the rest of our family and remember.

I hope you are feeling better soon!

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
