easter day 2011

this post is going to be super picture heavy. 
i have to let the pictures speak for me for the most part.
i've been "sick" and it's now affecting my concentration.
for reals.
i have fluid on my inner ear, and i thought that maybe it was a blockage,
so i tried to fix it myself.
well, i got even more fluid in there and ended up with vertigo so bad that i couldn't walk.
i am on medication...that is almost gone...and while it helps if i religiously take it every 6 hrs,
i don't have a refill and immediate care won't do anything unless i pay another $90 to come in again.
(that's not going to happen since they already told me the first time they can't do much in that setting).
i found a comprehensive symptom list for labrinthitis,
and i have a lot of those symptoms, 
including difficulty concentrating, short term memory lapses, confusion, etc.
i have a hard time finishing a blog post,
so i hope you don't get too bored with me!
...in the mean time, if you think about it, say a prayer!
hopefully it will remedy itself in the next few weeks,
but jesus works better than medicine!

the kids woke up to their easter baskets filled.
we don't do much candy. they get plenty of that throughout the day,
but i like to have little surprises for them:

and we finished up with church at our dear friends' house,
loving and praising the Reason we celebrate easter.
it was a long, wonderful day.
hmm..
so i ended up saying a lot.
if my pictures are speaking for me for the most part,
heaven help me.
the end.
