fighting a cold

fighting a cold

Well, I opened up the “new post” window a while ago, but haven’t had any inspiration yet. I went to Facebook and Twitter to see what I’ve been writing about lately, to get some ideas. About a week ago, Paul got a cold, and passed it on to me. He has since gotten better, but this darn thing keeps hanging around. I am getting frequent sinus headaches, which aren’t too much fun! Since I’m allergic* to pseudoephedrine, my options for…

Well, it’s been almost a week since I wrote. Phew! It’s quiet in my house. I like the quiet, after everyone has gone to bed. I can think finally!

Tears threatened all day as I tried to focus on my tasks at hand, and when I was all alone I let them flow which was somewhat freeing. I feel like I’ve been posting a lot of negative things recently, and I apologize! But I don’t want anyone…

* We got a chance to play host to my brother-in-law’s girlfriend, who was on her way to Brazil flying standby and wasn’t able to make her flight. I picked her up from the airport on Monday night, and spent much of the day Tuesday with her. I don’t know her all that well, so it was really nice to spend time with her! She also entertained Savannah when we went to the grocery store, which made shopping that much…
