Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. I’ve been fighting a mean cold, and I’m losing. Coughing, runny nose, weak and humorously cracking voice. Tired and blah. Fun times. So that’s what I’ve been doing, in between Stampin Up workshops, nannying, and preparing for yet more Stampin Up functions. I think the cold is affecting my psyche, too. I’m crying over every Christmas carol and song I hear, and yes, I know I’m breaking the not-before-Thanksgiving rule. I’m sick, and I think I should get a free pass. It might just be more of that cracking open I was talking about in an earlier post (and no jokes about me cracking!) This time of year, the weather, the holidays, the paths my thoughts wander down–emotions are closer to the surface. I could have wrecked my car last night, listening and singing to the Hallelujah Chorus at almost full volume, crying away, driving through rain and darkness. It’s a wonder I stayed on the road at all.
Oh, and I need to remind myself: Allyson, Thanksgiving is THIS Thursday. You might want to go to the grocery store and buy a turkey. Tomorrow. You have three days to get other stuff done.
In other FANTASTIC AND WONDERFUL NEWS!: Meredith is home from Iraq! Safe and sound in Hawaii, and she’s coming home for Christmas. We are all Elated.
Until tomorrow, faithful bleaders.
Is Meredith home “for good” or is she going back to Iraq?
I hope you feel better soon. Stop cracking so much. Or at least try to contain it to your house. It’s safer there, and it will be easier to clean up. 😉
yay for meredith, an answer to prayers!
oh and were we all poisoned or something? I have the sore throat, hacking, but nothing coming up thing, Sarabeth is also sick and missed church yestreday. hmmmmm. go to giant eagle before it becomes completely hellish. maybe it was just me, but I either was in everyone’s way or carts and cars saw me as a target yesterday.
Thank God she is coming home safe and sound!
And you, I just pray you get better and find you healthy happy self again. Keeping you in my prayers!
