Being Sick Stinks!!!

Being sick really does stink. I've been sick with an upper respiratory infection for two weeks now! I've spent my days sleeping, eating, resting, watching TV, taking my medications, and coughing my head off. Let me tell you, it has not been fun. Mom & Dad have said I've been really good during this sickness, but the reality is that I just haven't felt like doing very much of anything. BUT I am getting better, and I plan to be back to my old self very soon now. I'm napping a lot less, cough is almost gone, and I'm starting to get bit bored, which means I'm not being quite a good as before. Hopefully they'll let me out this house soon!!!! I've sure missed a lot during this two week period. When I first got sick, this is what it looked like outside at my house:

Now THIS is what it looks like outside my house:

I've missed so much!!! It's gone from Fall to Winter, since I've been sick! The snow pictures are just from this morning. It has been snowing all day and we have about 4 inches out there right now and more keeps coming. Boy, with all this snow, even though it's not even Thanksgiving yet, I'm starting to think CHRISTMAS!

P.S. Please keep all that snow out West!; November 27, 2010 at 12:36 PM

Note From My Mom

As Jeff's Mom, I feel so very blessed to have this choice young man to love, care for and serve daily. He is a delight and has been my greatest JOY and CHALLENGE rolled into one terrific young man. Jeff has touched more people and overcome more in his short life than most people do in a lifetime. What an example and inspiration he is. He is my mentor, my hero, my teacher. I truly believe Jeff is one of those special spirits that was sent here just to teach others. I know he certainly has taught me what's most important in this life. He has taught me so much and continues to do so daily. Because of Jeff, and wanting to help him grow to be the best he can be, I feel I have probably gained the equivalent of an honorary degree in medicine, education and law. At times it's been extremly hard, and at times it's been much easier. But I can truthfully say, it's been worth every tear I've shed, every ache in my heart, every fight I've had to fight. The smiles, the laughter, the love, and the strength of my son have made it all worthwhile. I am so grateful and thankful to my Heavenly Father for the blessing of this choice young man!
