1 I’M TIRED OF BEING SICK - I’ve been under the weather for too long now and it’s not fun. I sneeze uncontrollably in the morning. My allergies are killing me. And it’s been unbearably hot lately. But I’m still alive … working from home. Doing what I can.

I’m not the type to admit that I need to go see the doctor, but it’s been the summer flu that has lasted too long. And the sucky thing about being a freelancer/part-timer is that I don’t have health insurance. This has been my situation for so long that I’ve just kind of dealt with it. I’ve been doing that resting thing a lot lately though. That helps.

I might head on over to Panera later today too for some chicken noodle soup.

2 THIS IS FORTY - The sort of sequel to Knocked Up. I’m really excited about this one.

3 I STARTED READING LOVE DOES BY BOB GOFF - Actually, I’m in the middle of like 3 books. Although Love Does is what I’m currently reading every morning. It’s really good. Bob Goff is a very entertaining writer with a talent to actually tie things back to a deeper meaning. I really am enjoying it.

Other books I’m currently reading:

Creative, Inc - trying to get the mindset of creative entrepreneurship in gear
Twilight - thought it’d continue my ability-to-read-fiction streak, but it’s not working
Pricing Photography - so I know how much to charge people (definitely an eye opener)

And I did finish The $100 Startup. That one is a good one.

4 IT’S BEEN KIND OF A TOUGH WEEK - between being sick and then getting my car towed (I need to learn to read street signs), and then a situation that happened within my community group. It’s been tough.

I know that all things work together for good. It’s just hard to see that when I have to dish out a few hundred dollars to get my car back and people’s feelings get hurt when confronted about something that seems unreasonable to many. I don’t know how to explain things or how to react at times. But sometimes you just have to deal and move on.

5 BIRTHDAY DINNER @ PF CHANGS THIS FRIDAY - Who wants to come? It’s kind of a tradition. I’m fully expecting Christina and Leighanna to be there. Please & thank you.

This was taken on my 27th birthday awhile ago.
