the ill affects....
... everyone

I am still ill - the boys have gotten and gotten over their colds - which is good and now this sudden change in weather... (for those not in Texas - it was 80 yesterday and high today is 38 - no wonder, huh)



I cannot seem to shake it - I am not whining just telling. I have had a sore throat for 9 days now - and do you know, I have not been to a doctor since Mini-me was born and the fact that he is whooping my booty at Mario Racecarts should give you a slight clue how long that has been. Yeah, yeah, I know - why don't you go ... I hate going to the doctor!

Add to that my internet issues - man (and did I mention the splinters from having to fix my fence? A few know how much I enjoy that!!!)

But all is good, I have one final edit and I have to get an excerpt for the Samhain website - that is cool!

Oh and last night - I watched - Dallas Swat on TV - OMG - loved it. I am a sucker for all that kinda stuff - and Dallas had a swat issue yesterday so it seemed so, I hate to say fitting as four men got shot here, but you get the drift.

Have a great weekend folks - stay warm (as they say 80% of the country will be below freezing - our Canadian friends are laughing and saying - uh-huh, what's the problem)

Happy Writing.........


Update – 10:45, I have to do edits, like I said, so I cannot play on the GameCube w/ Mini-me. Well, I look over and I see him trying to wedge the pup’s foot on the controller so she’ll play with him – sheesh!

And I have reached new levels of laziness – instead of putting my computer back in the office on the desk (I brought it out to the family room when the DH was out-of-town for 2 ½ weeks) I just today brought the wireless keyboard and mouse into the family room, too, so it was easier for me to type and navigate: I can flop back on the sofa instead of having to perch on the edge – I told you, lazy!

but now the dern computer is acting up and word is messing up the enire computer - can I crawl back under the covers now and cry...

and before you start giving me alternatives to the dog catcher - it was my dogs that busted the fence this time - and it's the one facing the street not Moose.

I am beginning to suspect that you are very unwell indeed m'dear - you've been posting images of cartoon men for far too long now! Or is it that you've simply run out of pictures of CC and Hugh for us guys to mock?

Huge hugs, steaming lemon-and-honey drinks, and get well soon!

Awwww Dennie - I hope you get better soon.

I'll let you put up a picture of Hugh if it'll make you feel better.

Sore throat kind of makes me think of sinus drainage and if that's the culprit then try steam showers - it'll dry up the mucus. Also, keep hard candy in your mouth at all times - it'll keep the throat slick and allow the drainage to slide on down and not cling. Kind of a yucky post, huh?

Dennie, maybe you need to do a sinus irrigation. Squirt and I had chronic sinus infections for several months... we were on multiple antibiotics but kept getting sick.

And then my sister (a diver) talked me into trying sinus irrigation. It cleans out your sinuses like you wouldn't believe! Gross, but effective. We haven't had one sinus infection since.

It sucks when you're sick. I hope you get better soon.
