Buprenorphine and A Scent with My Boyfriend's Name

By
This week, I am grateful for many things. First and foremost, my family.

My sister: Saturday afternoon she spent 5 hours of her free time (which she never gets) back that the hospital helping my poor Ollie cat when she was sick. Throughout this week, even after her 13 hour days that begin at 5 a.m. and don't end until 7 or 8 p.m. that night, she has helped me feed and fluid and poke and scoop and everything else so that I might save some money and time with Ollie being sick.

Her husband, my brother-in-law, Will: He has helped me in so many ways, namely by keeping Lindsay sane, but also through coming to my work or going by and checking on Ollie. I'm so grateful that my big sister decided to take his name and be with him. He's such a great person.

My aunts and grandparents: For letting me bring Ollie with me to Mama Liz and Papa Joe's house last weekend while she was sick. Even though Cricket, the dachshund was not happy about that.

Grateful, also, to have a job that brings me to happy, heartfelt tears all of the time. 

Here are a few photos from this week that I snapped.

W# -- Ollie is feeling well enough to plop her butt on my computer keyboard :)

Lastly, I am grateful that I have a wonderful sense of smell and can fully appreciate the scent of "Noel" made my Crabtree and Evelyn. Smells like DECEMBER!

Athens and artichokes

Today I am grateful to live in Athens. ITs a small community but a great one. One where little ol me can get into the newspaper twice in one year. I'm not too excited about the photo they chose of me but there was no caption so hopefully the banner herald readers will not know it was me. http://onlineathens.com/stories/080210/liv_689380630.shtml Tonight Lindsay Will and I made paneer spinach and artichokes that we dipped in butter and bernaise. So delicious. And very round: Toby was quite jealous. He had a few leftovers, though. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone Location: Normal Ave,Athens-Clarke County,United States

Risotto and Sonny Perdue

Today I am grateful that I woke up to Noel kissing me on the cheek as he was leaving. Today Sarah, Cheryl and I went to the ribbon cutting of the MCG/UGA Medical School Partnership. It was not as much hot as it was extremely humid...and I immediately drenched the dress that Julie gave me. I have never gotten so many comments about a dress before. I am grateful to Julie for giving me some great new clothes. My whole outfit today cost about 5 dollars. That doesn't count the underwear...but you can't count that because underwear is expensive. I love this great dress that Julie gave me, bottom line. This is a photo of Cheryl and I fake cutting the ribbon before the actual ribbon cutting.  I know my posts always involve food...but I love to cook. I found this recipe in a magazine and it was all about green food. Recipes for zucchini, pea soup and then this one were in the article.  Who can resist a big helping of spinach and goat cheese risotto made with vegetable stock and...

Omikse Campers come to the Trading Post for their mail!

Today, I am grateful to have a best friend in my sister. Today, of all days, I needed her. I needed her not only to answer the phone when I called, but to actually predict that I would walk into my apartment to find yet another ticket from the DC Police for my car. She must have predicted that, because she assured that my incredible care package would arrive on the exact same day that I would break into tears because I'm so tired of paying for things related to my car. Let me just leave it at that with the car because this is a place in my life where I only focus on the positive. What am I grateful for. Just to give a little more background, I'm guessing most of us can relate to receiving care packages at camp. My mom used to surprise me with them. I never knew when I would get one. And, when they arrived, they were incredible. But, what I always loved the most were her letters. She would write more than a card--a story! A story that detailed the lives of my siblings ...
