sometimes things are the pits

today is my birthday which should be a happy thing. However, I have been down with a seriously sore throat, high fever, and low energy since Sunday. Instead of going out for dinner I was brought some mashed potatoes and gravy at my request from Kentucky Fried Chicken. Even that is hard to swallow. My tonsils are definately swollen, mavbe swollen glands, strepped throat, or even tonsilitis, all of which require going to a doctor for some antibiotics. Of course I have no insurance and not much money so this would put a great strain on me. It seems that every year I think I am going to actually use birthday money for whatever, but it never happens. I need to go to the ER, but don't want to drive myself. well that is all, welcome to my world. ugh.

Can you believe it, October is gone.

It seems like the month of October slipped by,(ok only the second half really.) The month came with the disappointment of having to get a new hard drive in my computer. However, because I had taken an extended warranty plan out. I had to pay nothing for it, just that I was without my computer almost a week. When I got it back it was a brand new baby all over again. I am still trying to get an adapter to plug the old hard drive up to see if I can retrieve any of the files off.
I hope you had a good time at the Scrapping Garden Falloween celebration and was able to pick up all the freebies. I have a new mini kit made for the October color challenge there. Here is the preview of the kit.


Download it here.

November 1st is National Digital Scrapbooking Day here in the US and there are many places you can get freebies, do some fun challenges and even win some prizes. Make sure you check it out.

Just a reminder to set your clocks back and don't forget the 19th of November is my special day (my b-day). Have a great weekend.
