Today I have officially been resigned to bed. After a full week of horrible sore throats and aches I decided anyway to power through at
Church yesterday morning and help my hubby lead the worship. If you were there you might have noticed me put my mic down by my side during the final song of the second service because - yipes I sort of lost control of my voice and it was makin some weird sounds. Needless to say yesterday afternoon I crawled into bed for a nap and woke up with a really sweet smoky voice. This morning when I woke up - There was and still is nothin comin out. Laryngitis. I played a few board games with my boys this morning and ended up doing a bit of charades too - Simon is quite concerned that I won't get my voice back. Adorable apparently he doesn't see the beauty in Mom not being able to talk. Chris took them out on some errands and adventures and I am stuck in bed resting my pipes because tomorrow I have a coffee date planned with someone I so admire and I do not want to miss it. I need tips on getting my voice back - if I have to I will bring a pad of paper and a pen in the morning.
All that to say I haven't made much for Monday. I am eyeing
this recipe for dinner tonight and I got an amazing shipment of vintage jewelry bits for a shop update coming soon so I am excited to get started on that. But for today I thought I would leave you with an old project I did for Design*Sponge a couple of years back since I have some new readers and all. I made this message board out of an old window and fabric you can read the whole post
HERE! And speaking of D*S did anyone notice a certain
white couch on there last Thursday - I almost jumped out of my skin!
I hope you all have a wonderful Monday - looking forward to a great week ahead and
ten on ten is just around the corner too which always makes me smile! xo
I DID see you on Design Sponge last week - been meaning to stop by and say congrats. Hope you feel better - I've had 2 bouts of crud in the last 2 weeks and finally had to give in and rest too. Its hard for us go-getters!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I've been needing to buy a wipe board and would so rather MAKE one!! yah!
ReplyDeleteoh, and I know it's not much for a tip, most know it already, but lemon and honey in hot water is the best feeling ever on a sore and hurting throat :) throat coat tea is pretty great too!! Hope you feel better friend!!
I love how you used the window - I have seem them done with smaller frames, but that's really cool! I am hoping to have time this quarter to make some with the right colours for the kitchens of s few ladies getting married this summer. We'll see how that goes!
ReplyDeleteReally hope you feel better soon x
congrats on the d*s feature, rebekah! and have a wonderful time at your coffee date tomorrow; i'm excited to hear more about that! praying that your rest today will pay off with a voice regained by tomorrow! xoxo
ReplyDeletei didn't think we had a coffee date scheduled tomorrow ;)
ReplyDeletei got to hear a bit of that sultry voice yesterday...get better soon!
I'm one of those new readers and I'm so excited about that message board... I just may have to keep my eye out for a frame at our upcoming summer antique fairs to make my own!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your voice!!! I had that ailment once and, I'm sorry to say, I wasn't able to talk for a week. Hope you feel better soon! :)
OH! When I make my own message board, I'll blog about it and send people over here to see the original. :)
ReplyDeleteOh no! No voice? That's tough with little ones! I hope you feel better!...I love this window trick and I think I'll give it a try! I'm also wondering if you did your R and G that keep showing up in your pics? Please share!
ReplyDeleteHi, I actually made that recipe last night! It was yummy. Stan is my very picky eater so I heated up the ingredients and then put it in the blender for a minute...made it a little less messy and he thought it was just beans! -kami (mark's sister)
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better! Love your message board.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is precious, love it!
