I had a "ground breaking" day in that I am finally relaxing and into the swing of the new fall schedule! YIPEE! We celebrated by buying an ice cream treat from Jamocha Jo's and taking a sunny walk around the lake nearby.

Tuesday, September 18, 2007

After a tearful Tuesday meltdown, I was praying and realized that I needed to get out of the house because this ankle sprain has left me housebound. Within minutes, I got a call from my dear friend of 29 years, Teala. She said, "Carol, I wanted to get some adult time and was going to call Debbie to go out for dinner, but God said, 'Call Carol.'" God really does know and orchestrate everything! So, here is my sweet friend in her orange shirt that matched the walls of the little Italian restaurant where we had a wonderful dinner. Tearful Tuesday turned to Teala Tuesday!

So, what do you do when you fall asleep at 7 p.m. the night before and wake up at 3:30 a.m. the next morning? You make up a color-coded weekly schedule!

I was SO into this that I could barely rip myself away to go to church, and I was positively GLEEFUL when I saw this on my screen when I came home! I worked on it more after this! I think it looks like a stegasauras, don't you?

You know you are an "SJ" (or a real GEEK) when you are positively gleeful about something like this. I have GOT to get a life!

I visited a friend on Wednesday and couldn't resist taking a picture of her daughter's beautiful blue eyes.

I am looking out my window at a GORGEOUS sunset that would make a wonderful picture of the day, but the picture explains why walking down the stairs and outside would be too painful today. :)

From flat on my back at Mary's Peak, I saw beautiful clouds.

This is from a gorgeous field of sunflowers that I spied on the way to Ginny and Lorraine's today. I took pictures of it on my way home. There was a path leading right into from the road.

(If you haven't figured it out, I am doing a "colors" set this week.)

I loved the sky today!

It was all a blur. One minute I was coming up from bending over during my 10:30 a.m. Pilates class, and the next minute there was a big thud on the floor, and that thud was ME!

How embarassing! I had forgotten to eat breakfast before. :(

(Obvious, this picture is an abstraction of what happened, but I remember seeing my pink shirt and blue shorts, and that is what is reflected in this picture. Trying to be artsy. :))

We came back from vacation to a tree loaded with apples! We will soon be making apple butter, applesauce, and apple pies!
