Red Top Workshop

Don't forget my dear friends and family to check out my new design blog at: www.redtopworkshop.wordpress.com.

I am trying to finally get back into doing design work while I study for my Architectural exams. Until I am an official Architect, you can follow how I am keeping busy.

Easter Festivities

Wow, we had a great weekend, except for the parts when Sallie Rose wouldn't walk and wanted to be carried everywhere because she skinned her knee. We ate with Grumps, Mayme, and Tara. And we swam and hunted Easter eggs. We had such a great time. Oddly enough, I feel better today than I have in weeks. I guess I just needed a good ole fashion dose of family time.

I love Easter. I love the candy, the week at Church leading up to Easter, the beautiful flowers, the wonderful weather (we went swimming outside for goodness sakes), and of course the extended time spent with my family.

Therapy Session

I will be using my blog today as my therapy session. I have tried to be so positive lately but this is what has happened in the last week that I need to whine about: 1. Sallie Rose fell backwards down our stairs. Not fun to watch and not fun for her. She is fine however 2. Sallie Rose has not slept through the night in 10 days. This makes for a very cranky Mom and Dad, especially towards each other. 3. I have had 2 of our rentals broken into 4. I have had numerous calls from our tenants about prostitutes hanging out on our block every single night and conducting "business" on our block 5. I am waiting, waiting, waiting to get results back from a dr. about some health issues, nothing serious, but still waiting 6. I have been extremely tired, one because my child is not sleeping and probably due to my health issue that I can not get the doctor to move forward on 7. I have switched our Internet at the rentals and it has been an ongoing 3 week battle to get it up and running and then when it finally does get up and running, it is "too slow to do my homework" according to our tenants. All 45 of them have texted me every single day to let me know. You would think they were dying from lack of food and water, no just not getting good wi fi. 8. Sallie Rose has had a bloody nose 2 days in a row (probably from sticking her finger in it) and that teamed with the not sleeping has got me a little worried about what might be going on with her. 9. I haven't seen my family since Christmas (2 more weeks and I will see some of them, Yeah) I think that might be all. On a positive note, Sallie Rose was giving me "raspberries" on my stomach and she called them "Strawberry shortcake kisses". How cute is that? No pictures to post, my camera was dead this weekend.
