on this day.

worn out doesn't even come close to what i am tonight. the day started off early with a horrible nights sleep- a two day headache continuing into today (this being the third day, bleh) and a dr.'s appointment of which was my first time going to- here in tn. and i didn't know exactly where it was. adding to the fact that it's just a real pain to even go. the dr.'s office was packed when i arrived (late), first thought rolling thru my mind was, "great, i get to wait and wait and wait, with a headache and people that could be harboring unknown illnesses. (yes, i am a bit paranoid, i do believe i pulled my santitizer out of my purse a hundred times, sanitizing not only my hands but anything i had touched prior to the santizing so that it would be clean as well- i see now as i type that i am quiet possibly on the verge of being a complete and total freak, but rightly so because thank the Lord we have made it thru the entire season with no sickness and prayerfully it will remain that way!) much to my surprise i waited for about twenty minutes, although, had i been there earlier like i had planned, that wait time would have increased- thanks to my dependable tardiness i was only uncomfortable for a brief amount of time. appointment for the year completed: check. walking out and passing by a preggo lady with a mask over her face indicating that she had the flu, hello, not on the list. needless to say i bolted past her opening and closing the door to the fresh and clean outside as quickly as i could as the craziness in my mind set in: "MUST.CLEAN.HANDS.NOW!" as i prayed to the heavens above that thru that little blue mask not a germ did pass- please, thank you and amen.

on my way home i stopped at a couple stores looking for somethings i was in dire need of, when i received a text from my mom and sister wanting to go in the opposite direction for lunch and some shopping. so i made my way home to turn around and head out with them. after lunch, thankfully my three day headache had subsided ("hallelujah's were singing thru my head in an angelic choir like manner"). we shopped all afternoon, i got the kiddo a couple things from the disney store for valentine's (he is gonna luv it), some great summer stuff and even a couple things for next winter at an ah-mazing deal, too good to pass up. speaking of valentine's and some random love- i got these adorable little cards from hallmark the other day for lo. he loves getting mail, he gets so excited when he receives something from family out of town- (and nothing makes me happier than seeing that sweet smile swallow his face)- so when i saw these i knew they were a must get. packaged is: one valentine's card and three 'random love cards' as i call them for just because he's the best times. i can't wait to 'do them up' and give them to him at various times. they are too cute, i just know he will love them.
after the guys got off we ended the afternoon/evening with dinner in knoxville at steak 'n' shake, which was yummy and the company, fun. now we're home, resting, relaxing and obviously blogging for me. it's twelve a.m. friday morning and i must end this blog with wishing my beautiful husband a happy anniversary. five years ago today i married my best friend who has held that reining title for nine years now, goodness at the time gone by. these years have been spectacular- the best of my life. i know nothing more true than the love in this household, the love we have created and continue to make. together we make living awesome. a wise man once answered when asked by a teenage girl in search of 'the one', "what's your favorite part of being married?"- he replied, "it's like always having your best friend over!" (awwww, indeed it is) so to you, my baby daddy: you make everyday so friggin' fun. thanks for making me laugh uncontrollably, encourage me to grow to be more, for helping me learn, for the gorgeous little blue eyed product of our love and a lil' dna, for working so hard for our lovely life, for all the wall space {:)}, for being the keeper of my secrets, super confidant (i type that as the golden girls theme song runs thru my head!). although the list could go on and on and on i think you probably get the point, or at least i hope you do! most of all for loving me and for continuing to do so- you gotta love like whoa. you are the king of my heart. cheers to us, the past, present and our future. i love you longgg time and more than you know.

i'm just tickled to be going out with my hubby and celebrating our love. getting all dazzled and spending the day together. we went to vegas in early january for our anniversary, so now we will celebrate with lunch, movies, dinner, some shopping?!?! man, we have lots of plans to choose from- we better get to deciding. the bed calleth my name and i must heed her sweet call.
