SPT "Favorite Color"/Does it have to get worse before it gets better??

"FAVORITE COLOR"



I have to say that right now my favorite color is pink. It definitely has to be the right shade. Maybe because it's summer and the pinks are so fun, festive and refreshing to me. I have noticed how much I am attracted to pinks once I get into a store. Pink seems to go well with my blue eyes and light hair. It is just a soft look that I tend to love. I love these pink flip flops in the picture above. They are from my favorite store....Target. I love the shade and they are comfortable too. I live in them. I don't decorate anything in my house with pink. I find in my house that I love black accents in frames, shelves, and furniture.

Now a back update....today was awful. It was worse than the first day. I wasn't sure I was going to make it to pick up the kids from school. I was crawling to the car pretty much. I then sat down at the door to the garage and said a little prayer to help me make it to the car carrying Ellie. I was in tears but felt that desperate. I made it eventhough the pain was so great. I called the dr. and he said to pop 4 advil every 6 hours with 2 Tylenol in between. I made an appt. for Thursday but am hopeful I won't have to keep it. It seems to have let up some this evening and I am more able to move around. AHHHHH! I was scared this afternoon thinking that it really couldn't get any worse. It was so painful to put any weight on my feet hence me crawling and side stepping everywhere. I am hoping that it will be a 100 times better in the morning. :D

SPT Challenge.....Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

This was a challenge for me...

I must say that I am not good at recycling all that I should. My kids keep me in line in that area. The kids have been talking a lot about this in their classes at school lately. I guess because it was Earth Day on Sunday. They come home to tell me what can and can't be recycled. I'm glad that they know so much about it. They actually do some of it for me. I never discourage it if they are excited about it. I guess I'm just lazy when it comes to recycling. I would much rather toss it in the trash to get it off of my counter right then than to walk out to the side of the house and put it in the recycling bin 20 x's a day. I definitely did my share yesterday when I collected up all that I had set aside for this challenge. I'm not Earth friendly in the car department either...I drive a big SUV but need something big enough to carry my family in. I love my Suburban and wouldn't trade it for anything.

I live in an area that the bins are provided so there really is no excuse for me. I definitely admire those who are good about recycling. I do know that every effort to do so can make a difference. I will do better....I promise!! :D
