The beginning of my week was pretty much normal, but by the end not so much. Thursday was Steve and I's 5th year anniversary. It does not seem like we have been together that long. WOW!! I am so very blessed for my better half. He is simply my person and I love him with all that I am, even though sometimes I roll my eyes at him. That night I played basketball with my mom and some other women in a tournament. It is the best thing ever to be able to do the things I loved to do. Before I could run up and down the court maybe twice and I was pooped. Now I can go and go and keep on going. Crazy what a new heart can do.
Saturday morning I wake up, did my morning ritual while Steve was still snoring. I went to the kitchen open up the freezer grab a frozen bagel, got the bread knife and began trying to cut it. The bagel was kind of hard to cut, but I was determined to get through it.... The knife slipped and I sliced open my hand. I hurried and grabbed a paper towel, put pressure and raised it above my head. Since I am on eliquis my blood kept coming, I took a peek at what happened and it wasn't good.

I ended up getting 12 stitches and a tetanus shot. The doctor at the Instacare told me half way through stitching me up that he had 2 cups of coffee and apologized on his stitch job.
I didn't hit any tendons or anything, the nurse said it was a clean cut. It is amazing how much you actually use your thumb and hand. I have struggled with using my right hand for a lot of things, now I have no choice to choose which hand. This is my chance.
That night my mom and I watched Women's Conference. Great talks were shared. Here are something's I picked up...
Service can be simple. Don't be nervous about serving others because God will go before us and prepare the way. All we have to do is committ to serve like He did for us.
Today was painful, but you have to keep trucking along. So we went on a nice little Easter Sunday hike, went to church and off to my parents house for Easter dinner. I am grateful for my crazy family and love them so much.
My brother saw me struggling trying to make pink frosting for our cookies and gave a helping hand, such a nice brother
Me super focus trying to frosts some fun easter bunny bottoms cookies. They were delicious.
