I can't sleeeeep!
My the left side of my nose is blocked to the max and when I try to blow air out of it, my ear pops. My face feels raw from blowing my nose so much, and the skin around it is peeling and is slightly red. I look and feel disgusting. I went to Sharl's today, all fussy because I wasn't feeling well. The world is a frustrating place when you can't breathe properly. Sharl was very sweet though, making me hot cider, giving me hugs and fixing my blankets to make sure I was comfortable. I napped all afternoon, which I'm regretting now because I keep tossing and turning in my bed as I try to sleep.
Before I left for Becky's potluck in the evening, I decided to fix myself up a little. I washed my face, brushed my hair and put on a little makeup. I felt a lot better after (I felt) my face looked more presentable. I tried to get all the redness out of my nose and cheeks with cover up and bronzing lotion.
The potluck was fun. Anita was there too. She and Becky and I left when the party started to get boring, and we went to Starbucks for coffee then to my house. It was just like old times, as the three of us chatted comfortably, and I took random pictures with my digital camera. I love getting together with comfy friends. The people who you've grown up with and who have really come to know you over the years, that you don't have to go through the process of explaining you life story of why you think or feel the way you do. It's wonderful. I thank God for putting these girls in my life, and for keeping us together over the years. And I am soooo happy that Anita is back from Australia.
Hey.. it is now 1:47am. The last day of 2003. It has been a wonderful year. I'm grateful for the following things.
Next... I will think of some good resolutions for next year.
Starting with getting in shape. I've seriously let myself go.
