But I'm Still Thankful

So, you already know I have been dealing with Mono. But, I wasn't going to let that affect my Thanksgiving. We went to Ma's house and had a good day. Bright and early the next morning, Logan, Ma and I got up at 3:45 to head over to the mall to start our day of shopping. This year, Madeline said she wanted to go. When I got up, she was already dressed and downstairs with Logan waiting for me. Well, we were walking through Belk's, and Madeline says "my stomach hurts - you need to get me to a bathroom." As we're running and I'm yelling to everyone around me asking where the bathroom is, Madeline throws up in the shoe department. And she throws up 3 more times before we can get her back to Ma's house. But, I wasn't going to let that affect our day of shopping. Mike took her and Amanda home (as previously planned), and Ma and I headed back out with Jenny to do some more shopping. The next day, as Logan and I were driving back home, my eye started hurting. By that night, it was starting to get puffy. Sunday morning, I woke up with pink eye. But, I wasn't going to let that affect my time decorating. We spent all day putting up trees and other decorations. Madeline went to school today. And I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon.



You can throw what you want to at me, but I'm still standing. And, I'm still thankful.
