Friends

Oh what a few couple of days I have had. Owen is sick. He is coughing constantly. I am in rough shape from not sleeping...I know, poor me. You know me, I need my sleep, or I function at a 7 year-old level.

I had a powerpoint presentation due last night. I had to have it completed and submitted before midnight, actually, before 2 am, since I am running on Phoenix time ( my school is in Phoenix). Poor Owen woke up as I was just finishing up the presentation, I was literally on the count down and needed to complete the assignment. Since O is sick he wanted to cuddle--I didn't even get an opportunity to give the presentation a final read through, before I gave into my baby's cries. I just pushed submit. I am curious what the grade I will be given is.

Tonight, no homework for me. Owen is already tucked in for the night. I am going to put Keyton and Hal to bed in little bit. I can't wait to making a running leap for my bed.

Yesterday, I got a phone call from a special friend. My friend Shelly called and we talked and talked and talked. Shelly and I became friends the summer before first grade. We were instantly inseparable. After high school, Shelly, left for college, I stayed in Williston for my first year of college and we would see each other and talk to each other as often as we could. As years went by, and I had my family, we stopped talking as much as we would like. However, Shell holds this special spot in my heart, and no one can ever replace it. I love her like family. I still think one day we will live next door to each other and play cards every evening.

Another friend that I love and adore is my friend Amber Dawn. She is actually traveling the world right now. She is like a zillion miles away--it kind of knocks the wind out of me when I think about how far away she is. Amber, has tried to call me a few times, but I keep missing her phone calls. Today, on facebook, she said she is going to de-friend me, since I don't answer my phone when she calls. Amber, my phone is by my side at all times now. Call me, again! I love you and miss you!! Amber and I also share an unique bond--even though we have lived hundreds of miles apart for some time, we still have the strongest connection. I can't wait to see where she ends up so I know where I will be visiting!
