This weekend

Just a hodgepodge of things to say today. First, I'm really happy that my friend Shelley had a great ultrasound yesterday and her babies are healthy. Funny how even if you don't "know" someone in person that your heart just goes out to them and worry about them so much and end up praying for them all day long. She has lost two other children, and I'm just amazed how awesome God is to give her twins this time (and she has no family history of twins and wasn't on fertility drugs). WOW!!! Yay, God!

Last weekend I (hopefully temporarily) lost the hearing in my right ear. I thought it had something to do with the fact my ears didn't pop when we landed at home from our vacation coupled with holding my mouth open so long at the dentist last Friday. But now I'm feeling stuffed up in my head so I bet I have a sinus infection and will end up going to the doctor soon.

Lou and Boogie (my two parakeets) are fighting. From what I read, this is normal, but it really hurts me to watch them. My husband had gotten them some treats. It's like a stick with birdseed stuck all over it. They LOVE it and now I hardly see them eating their regular bird food. He put one in yesterday and the stick is totally bare this morning. Maybe it's like bird "crack" and they are coming off of their high. In that case, I would be crabby and fighting too.
