A few things.....

1. I made flan.

We have this super easy recipe.... that you can't mess up.

I messed it up.

I did the whole "melting the sugar" thing, and failed. 

Then I couldn't resist dipping my finger in the burning substance.

Now I have a bad burn on my poor innocent finger.

Who knew that it was that hot!

Please appreciate (*"ouch!"*) the pain (*"ohhhh.."*) this post (*"mommy!"*) is causing (*Whaaaaaaaa!*).

2. A friend of mine got engaged...

3. I have been busy sitting on some horses, dogs, a house, and a fire.... (ouch!)

Get it?
*House sitting...*

I've been mucking stalls... in the mud.

I have never seen such deep squishy mud. 

If it wasn't full of horse manure, I would dive into it!

But it is full of horse manure.

So I refrain.

I am enjoying the fresh air... hard work... exercise... money.

4. This weather is trying to annoy me.

I am determined not to let it get me down.

"It's easy to smile when the sun is shining... can you glorify God in the rain???"
(Example of pep talk I've been giving myself....)

I'm thinking of moving...

Somewhere tropical.

Warm!

Green.

Warm!

Beautiful.

Sunny.

Warm! 

Yep. I'm off to the tropics of... Indiana?????

SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
