no ick i declare it

Kat, give a holler if you want any help tomorrow!

I'm so out of it. Tucking the kids into bed often puts me in the need for bed myself. Yawn.

Happy moving day! May it be quicker and easier than anticipated. Also, peanut butter on pancakes = yum. Then again, peanut butter always = yum for me.

No ick! I'm forcing feeding OJ and expectorant to the family today. They want to go to state basketball finals later this week, but if they take off school for the ick they can't take off school for the sports.

Feel better, all. Good Sunday.

Timelies all!

I seem to have missed the ick what's going around, well at least so far. I just have my perpetual mild nasal congestion/post-nasal drip. I just through a fair amount of tissues, but that's all.

I just have my perpetual mild nasal congestion/post-nasal drip.

I have a secret theory that my insane allergies somehow help me not catch the ick that goes around every year. Like, my immune system is already revved up to fight the allergens, and the ick just bounces right off.

I know for a fact that my use of nasal saline spray (which speeds up the mucus so it can do its cleaning schtick) has cut way back on my common cold and flu rate.

Today I decided that I'm not going to take caffeine or painkillers. So far, I've gone back to bed for three hours and fallen fast asleep, so I'm off to a good start, sort of.

Today I have gone to work, gotten my nails done and my eyebrows waxed, run a couple of boring errands, and stopped by my favorite coffee place twice (once before work, and once after nails). I feel both productive and indulged. This is a good feeling.

I believe that I am over my ick, except maybe for some slight residual chest clearing, so I am thankful for that. I hope the rest of you get over yours quickly.

The ick (mild headcold since Wednesday) seems tobe departing from my household as well. Today I have changed linens and put up laundry, with grocery shopping and dishes yet to come..

I felt like mild death yesterday - muscle aches and tired. last night in bed at 10:30, finally git up for good today at 11:30 - WHEE. still do not feel like doing much.

I am trying to get pictures printed so mac can put together his science project display, but my printer has just run out of color ink. AWESOME! in that not at all way. I can only think of one place in the neighborhood that might have it. I so do not want to go out, but really do not want to go out and discover they do not have it. and no, I dont't have their number.

I weakened and took a quarter-pill of generic No-Doz (that's about half a cup of coffee-worth) which is helping clear up the fuzzies nicely.

The world is melting nicely off the nearby rooftops but we've still got a ways to go until bare ground again....
