SOOO....where have I been?

I worked on my grandparent's old place for about two days before I got sick AGAIN. This time I lost my voice :( but it is back now. I am so tired of being sick! I get my bloodwork done again soon, but they never find anything. It's frustrating but I'm trying to be positive. I just keep getting sick over and over! And it zaps my energy :( (Which is one reason I've been so absent!)but...
Tomorrow is my birthday! So hopefully it will be a nice day..

I have pictures to share of how the work is going on the house, but I just haven't uploaded them yet. I'm really excited about how it's going to look. It is really dreary and gross right now, but I cantell it's going to look awesome!
Hopefully I'll get some pretty birthday pics to share tomorrow! I can't decide what kind of cake I want..any ideas?

And the winner is....

Sonya Zombie!

Here I am

So here I am one bachelorette party and one outpatient procedure later (the two are completely unrelated) and I'm feeling much better. Lots has been going on in my life and I am trying to stay busy and keep my mind occupied. I've been working on some new jewelry designs and doing some fall shopping. Oh-and my birthday's this month! I can't believe it's fall already! I am ready for making roasted pumpkin seeds, warming apple cider, and making homemade chai :) Also,
my friend is getting married this coming weekend. The weather is supposed to be a perfect 72 degrees and sunny-the perfect fall weather. We went to to do her final fitting yesterday and I learned how to pin up her train for the wedding. Did I mention that I'm a bridesmaid? Our dresses are a pretty green strapless A line cut. I just have to find shoes I can wear that I won't fall down in!

Oh and I wanted to thank all of you for your kind comments on my last post-life has thrown me a few curveballs lately and your encouragement means so much! Thank you!

So anywhoo, things are busy and I have missed being around! I'm off to catch up on my favorite blogs! oh-and did I mention there would be a GIVEAWAY later today? Yep! So stay tuned :)
