Day 25: Minimum of 5 Favorite Blogs

-
                                      

1)    " Light Our World' is our website. James likes to blog as well and is a lot better at it in consistency than I have been the past couple of years. In James' blog he posts about anything and everything.

2) One of the blogs that I follow is from Kimberly. She was Jessica's counselor when Jessica went to Camp in July of 2001. We didn't know it at the time but Jessica would pass away within a month of her going to the camp. I am so thankful even after 16 years that Jessica had Kimberly as her counselor.  Kimberly kept a diary of Jessica's week at camp and recorded the ups and downs of what happened. She has since gotten married and had two wonderful little boys, Cannon and Townsend. Cannon has on the Autistic Spectrum. Kimberly has a blog she keeps called "Our Father's World Through the Eyes of Cannon".  In the blog she records all that Cannon has had to endure since his diagnoses.

3) Angie Mizzell: is a writer, TV spokesperson, and mom of three. She shares stories about raising a family, redefining success, and creating a life that feels like home.(quote from her blog)
   We met Angie at a blog meet-up more than a couple of years ago. 

4)  Andra Watkins- We met Andra at a meet-up years ago along with Angie. Andra used to have a blog named: "Accidental Cootchie Mama", she has since become a well known New York Times author.
5) Melinda Watson: I have known Melinda since we were about 10 years old. We consider each other sisters. She has been blogging for years on Xanga. However, as of this writing I think Xanga is no longer up.

What to do at 3 in the morning?

-
Well here I sit at the computer and its nearly 3:30 in the morning now. I started getting sick yesterday at school. I was sneezing like crazy most of the day. When I got home I started taking meds. I took everything from Claritin (thinking it might be my allergies) to Theraflu and so far no real relief. Then about 11:45pm I took something that had an antihestomine (not sure what it was since it was out of the box) I figure good something that would dry me up. Well it actually did dry me up however I have been a wake most of the night. UGHHH!! I was suppose to work today but when i woke up at 11:45 pm and good not hardly talk or do much else i called in to the lady that assigns the subs and told her i could not work. Yesterday, Justin was sick with a low fever and coughing. I am hoping to be able to send him to school today. He has missed 8 days of school so far this year and can not miss anymore than 10 before they decide to retain him. I would rather he not have to stay in 3rd grade a

My Scar

-
                                                                 My Scar     “OUCH”, I said to David. He and I were goofing off during band practice one day. He twisted my right wrist.   I didn’t think much of it at the time. It hurt a little but I soon forgot all about it. Then   about a week later I started having pains in my right wrist.   I was having a hard time being able to bend it. I noticed a large bump formed under the skin on the top of my wrist. I didn’t tell my parents. I figured they wouldn’t believe me and would think it was just growing pains.   It wasn’t until I was in my first semester of college that I noticed that the bump on my wrist was getting bigger. Since Mom used to work with a hand surgeon, she still had connections. So I went to see the Dr. and we set a date for the surgery. It would be on January 13, 1978. This date actually fell on a Friday of all days. I went into the hospital the night before, so I would be ready to go into surgery the ne
