When it rains, it pours!

It's been quite a rollercoaster ride for me this week.  Some highs & some lows.  What do you want to hear about first?  Okay, the highs first.

Highs:

• 
  
  I won a $20 gift card from Paige and Brooke.  (yes, I know I already mentioned it, but I was and still am excited about it!)
  
  
  
• 
  
  I got to redesign my blog and give it a facelift.
  
  
  
• 
  
  I made some cards and still working on a few more to give to Paige and Brooke.  I appreciate the chance to participate in GIVEAWAYS.  This is my little gift to say 'thank you'.
  
  
  

Lows:

• 
  
  I'm still not done with my digital kit . . . { My Little Peony } Kit.  I swear, by the time I release it, it'll be a week or two from now.  :o(

  My kids have been sick.  Shadow had a fever the other day (oh, and the night before that).  He's better now though, but my daughter, Little Peony, is not feeling so well.  She's been fussy and moody.  Not to mention, she has a load of red bumps or rash all over her body including her face, hands, and feet.  It's so hard because she can't express her feelings and tell me what's wrong yet.  The nurse said to wait it out till tomorrow to see if she's better.  They think it's roseolla, but I believe Little Peony already had it.  According to the nurse, in some cases, a child can get roseolla for a second time.  My cousin said it could be some kind of viral thing.   Plus, Little Peony's nap schedule is all thrown off!  She's been napping earlier than her normal time.

  This last one takes the cake!  I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DID OR HOW I DID IT, BUT I RESTORED MY COMPUTER BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL SETTINGS!  THAT MEANS . . . ALL FILES ON MY DESKTOP AND ALL INSTALLED PROGRAMS INCLUDING MY NORTON ANTI-VIRUS IS GONE!  Don't ask me about it, it just bums me out!  Thankfully, all my work stuff and all my pictures (of my kids) are all saved on my external hard-drive & I didn't lose any of that.  But, 1LuvnDad's projects that he had on the destop are gone!  I'm so disappointed in myself.
  
  
  

So, how are you all doing this week?  I'm hoping to just get through the week and be back on track next week.  Hopefully, the POURING will stop and the SUN will shine again.  The JOURNEY goes on . . .
