Adventures of this New Year's Eve...

Two blown tires, two sisters, two sick babies, and 3 million GLUTEN FREE donuts!!!!!!! YAY! Boy were they yummy....So, two days ago as I'm driving along down Broadway (by myself and with no cell phone, mind you) a tire blows out!!! JOY! What fun for me! So, my poor little car has been sitting at the Japanese Steakhouse for two days now. But good things have come from a seemingly awful situation.....

Just yesterday, an opportunity presented itself. One that, if I would have had a car of my own, might have never come to light. :) Jordan's gift to me for the New Year was a shopping trip for myself. A stroke of genius, pure genius! Well, hmmm..... I don't have a car. I call up ANGIE! Well lo and behold, she wants to go shopping too.... and, what is that she says?.... she is out driving around as we speak and heads to my house without further delay!!! Perfect I tell you, just perfect. The day was fantastic! We hit so many sales and got sooo much that you would think that we spent several hundred dollars, but indeed, we did not even spend one hundred. We're that good. Shopping has not been that fun for me in the longest time! Really, I absolutely adored hanging out with her! She is, without a doubt, a very dear and very fun friend! Thankyou Angie!!! (We didn't get any pics though!!!) :(

But it doesn't stop there.... Today I got to spend some quality time with my sister as well. Our husbands set out on a journey to find affordable tires and to fix them themselves. It has literally taken all day, seeing as how the place to get the tires is out of town and twice they gave them the wrong ones...idiots (the tire people, not our honeys). So, Rachael has been at my house all day. Our children are both sick, we've been chasing after them all day and attempting to stay sane. :) A good day. Our journey? A quest to find out how to make delicious gluten free donuts. A success! ON THE FIRST TRY!!! I was so thrilled. I've just recently started this diet and I've been feeling so deprived, it saddens me that gluten is the thing that has been making me sick for this many months! Really, wheat, rye, barley....the things that are supposed to be healthy? I would have never guessed!!!

But, the donuts! How delicious! no joke! I ate like six and I'm not lying! *Sigh* and I really don't feel guilty about it.
It's been a good couple of days. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!
(Yeah, no makeup...that makes it an even better day!)
