Whew. I am emotionally, physically, mentally exhausted. Muriel IS IMPROVING, praise the Lord. I'll share more tomorrow when I've got more energy to type. 
This is the box of cookies I brought for her today when I visited. The white craft ink would not dry, so it smeared on the box when touched. But, I figured it'd be thrown away after the cookies were gone, so I didn't sweat it. I filled it with Key Lime Shortbread Cookies. Yum.

That was a real hectic day. The key lime cookies sound awfully good. Take care. That was a cute cookie container. Congrats on the weight loss.

ReplyDeleteGirl, you had one busy day! Oh my goodness! That cookie box is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou are superwoman! I just found your blog today...put you under favorites. I LOVE your blog :)
ReplyDeleteI was exhausted just reading about your day. I found your blog recently and enjoy your work. I wish your MIL good health soon. I have been attempting Jenny Craig on and off for a while. I am ok a few weeks, but then it is like living on Chef Boyardee...can't take the food or even the smell of it cooking in the micro. It doesn't taste bad, its just too limiting. Good luck
ReplyDeleteWOW, you were busy, the box looks great, glad to hear your MIL is improving.
ReplyDeleteI'm tired just reading that. Your chinese box looks great. LOVE the tag.
ReplyDeleteNow that was a *day*!!!
ReplyDeletewow, what a day! The cookie box is adorable as I'm sure the cookies were yummy! Congrats of your first 4lbs! Yeah (and you baked cookies too!). Glad to hear Muriel is getting stronger.
ReplyDeletewow, what a super busy day! Congrats on the 4 lbs though, I am doing ww too! The box looks great, I love it!
ReplyDeleteKey Lime cookies huh? My hubby would LOVE those. I am glad Muriel is doing better...patience is tough to come by when someone you love is hurting.
ReplyDeleteYour day sounds WONDERFUL! (Well, some parts...) I hope you had a nice cool drink of something spicy to wind down...
That IS quite a day! Love your little cookie box.
ReplyDeleteHoly cow...I would have been exhausted by noon. Who am I trying to kid? I would have passed out by 9 am. Heck, I almost collapsed just reading about your jam packed day. What a trooper you are! Good news on the weight loss and MIL. BTW, the box is adorable. And the cookies sound ummm-ummm gooood.
ReplyDeleteMay very well be a hectic day, Amy, but what I read was the day in the life of a woman using the many talents God gave her. You're Godliness is showing Amy, and THAT deserves a big "atta girl!" :)
ReplyDeleteCute box. I always dry my white craft ink with my heat tool. No smearing. Now just sit back with that catalog and relax... deep breaths...
