Bed Blogging

Home sick with what I think may be the flu.  I may have gotten it from my boss who is such a workaholic that he refuses to ever stay away from the office.  Anyway, I believe I've been infected and no, I never got a flu shot (though I read yesterday that 4 out of every 10 Americans who did receive a flu shot are still getting certain strains of the flu).

I thought about posting a picture of myself lying in bed looking sick and disgusting, like I do, but I thought I would save you all from the image, but I found these other pics of other sick people, so let's use those - for effect:


I feel a real connection with this particular individual...I think it's the hoodie.



So now that I'm sick, I'm looking for some activities to keep me busy, which is difficult seeing as I'm too weak to get out of bed.  I've tried to get some work done despite my condition, but when we get sick, our brains get a little foggy.  On top of already feeling not to with it, I've taken some medicines to help with my symptoms, like Advil, NyQuil and DayQuil...(not all at the same time), but I do feel drowsy so it's probably not the best idea to do too much business today.

Maybe I can work on planning my honeymoon, which I've been meaning to get around to in the next month or so.  I've done some research on castle tours in Europe and also explored the option of staying more local and perhaps taking a vacation to explore Rocky Mountain National Park (where I've been before, but my hubby hasn't). 

Aw...looks like I have a visitor here now to keep me company.  
Bella (AKA Little Munch)



I think I'll give her a little pet and get back to my bed blogging later.

Hey! Curious where I've been for the last 7+ years?

Oh my poor lonely blog, without a blogger to care for it....shame on me!  This is a typical Gemini, or A.D.H.D. behavior rather, that I often exhibit.  It's called toobusytocareism .  It's true!  I have just been too busy to pay any attention to...ME.  I love to write, but I also love all of the life events that I've endured over the past SEVEN YEARS if I'm doing my math correctly. I began this blog ages ago - when I was recently married and not yet a Mama.  I was still quite busy with work, lots of cats and my Mister, who we'll keep anonymous - at least for now.  We were living in that gorgeous Queen Anne style Victorian in Amenia, New York, when I had started my beloved blog.  Well, it lasted less than one full month - the blog that is - not the house, relationship, etc.!  The marriage is still going strong (at least most days) and the house to the best of my knowledge still stands as well, but we don't live in it, which brings me to my...

Dental Disaster

I must have bad luck when it comes to dental work.  I went into my dentist's office today for a simple filling.  He gave me a shot of Novocaine and kept asking me whether or not I was numb.  I kept telling him, "a little bit."  Anyway, he starts drilling and I basically jumped in my seat.  Then he asks, sounding surprised, "Are you feeling this?" while simultaneously pulling the drill out of my mouth. "Yes!" I replied as best I could with some contraption still hanging out of the left side of my mouth.  And I knew immediately when he pulled the drill out of my mouth (drill still set on high speed), he swiped my bottom lip. I'm now back at work with a not-so-small cut on my not-so-small recently fattened lip. I have a party to attend tomorrow night.  I just hope I can hide this by then.  :(  BOO HOO Now I know why it's been a while since I went to the dentist.  Somehow, it's never a good experience for me.

Day 5 With The Flu

Well, I'm still suffering with the flu.  This is now my fifth day of spending at least half of the daylight in my bed and basically the remaining hours on my couch.  My husband is down in Florida visiting his Mom, sister and niece and even though I miss him when he's gone, I must say, I am comforted knowing that he doesn't have to look at me in this condition.  It is not pretty!  Today I really need to try to take a shower.  I promise you all I have showered since I've been sick, but I admit, I haven't showered much.  It seriously takes a lot of energy to do such things when suffering from this illness.  Wish me luck! I spoke to my Mom last night.  She, too, is down in sunny Florida (at least I think they have some sun today in Naples). Anyway, the funny thing is my Mom told me to I have to be careful about my cats.  At first I didn't know what she meant, but then I realized she was worried about my getting them sick.  I explained ...
