Stop Biting Me!

No. No one is biting me! It's me. Biting my nails. So today marks the official start of me trying to quit that. This is how bad my nails currently look.


I know! Pretty sad..... So I am going to try this stuff recommended to me by someone and see if it will work. So far so good. The stuff is nasty and I can taste it if I even put my finger near my mouth to eat, so especially if I went to bite a nail! :/ so I'm hoping this will work! I'll keep you posted with a weekly update picture so i can compare how my nails are coming along! So NEXT FRIDAY I will probably have a little bit of nail (maybe not because they are in such bad shape, but we shall see)

Well, that's really all I have to say for right now!

I Can Walk! It's A Miracle! (Sorta)

Okay. So, it's not a miracle, but I feel like it is! After 3 weeks I can almost walk halfway normal. I know what you are thinking. "Big Deal!?"... Well, yes! It is quite the big deal to me. I was so tired of hobbling on crutches or hopping around on one foot. I am just glad to be able to hobble on my own 2 feet again. Even if it's not totally back to normal!

Anyway, on another note, I have been working on all kinds of art things!

Such As:

This Mandala for 2D II





And Learning to "coil" weave in that class since I got done early!





I am always down to learn new crafts, so I was super excited when Mrs. Pat offered to teach me! I've also been working my butt off on this stopmotion movie that I am hopefully about to be done with! :) I am going in to work on the finishing work of it today with my partner Megan! ;)

Well, That's about it for what's been going on with me! I'll try to write more often! But, That's all for now!

Time Heals (the foot)

:) haha get it! Heals=Foot! :) I am so witty!

Anyway, my foot is feeling better and better. I think by next week I might be able to walk normal-ish. It would probably feel a lot better if I hadn't nailed my self in the hurt foot with the other foot in the night. :/ oh well. At least it is healing!

Well, that's it for now!

More later!

An Eventful Weekend (so far)

So, Jeremy and I came home on Thursday afternoon to get some errands done around town. Then, we went out to eat with Mom and Lacey. After that, we went home to my house and watched shows and went to sleep. This morning I woke up, had breakfast and went to a doctors appt. Then, I came back home, had lunch and watched some more tv (while I was eating my lunch). After tha,t Jeremy and I started to move everything around in Mom's room to paint! I sent Jeremy (and Mickey) to the McCoy's to get a few things and I started to take the old shelve mom wanted down out of the walls. They were installed with 4 inch woof screws that were very difficult to get out. So, I was going to get my phone to call Jeremy while he was still out to get me a patch kit for a hole that one of the screws left in the Sheetrock. As I was going for the phone, I tripped over something(I think it was Todd) and I fell an landed with my foot right on one of the board with a screw still in it. So, there I was with a 4" screw about 2" deep in my foot. I called and got mom to call Papaw Leist to come from next door and he had to back the screw out of my foot with the drill. After that, Jeremy got there and I made a doctors appt. to get it checked on and to get a tetanus shot. So, about an hour later, I was at the doctor and had the most painful procedure of my life done on my foot. And now here I am awake after only 2 hours of sleep because my foot is so sore. Even with the pain killers I can't sleep. So I thought I would just write a little something on here about my very eventful day. And I even have a picture of the screw that went into my foot! So, Here It Is!


Yep! The dark part is where it was in my foot.

So, that was my day. Not too much going on but pretty eventful ( not in the way I would have hoped but still).... :/

Well, I guess that's it for now!

Snow Day!

So, all of the students at DSU are having a Snow Day! So, what do we do? Well everyone who stayed at my house last night (I.e. Jeremy, Zach, Meg, and Renee) are sleeping! Ha while I got up about and hour ago and had breakfast and now I'm sitting here blogging. Not that I have alot to do today! I just can't sleep in that much! So, since I can't sleep anymore, I thought I would upload on here about the snow and put a picture! :)
