This morning I woke up with the best sense of well being. Tranquil almost. My baby niece had spent the night and she had thrown up everywhere. But it didn't phase me. I distictly remember thinking "I did 20 loads of laundry yesterday. This will just be the LAST last one!" All day long this feeling stayed with me. I kept checking and ( Read more... )

Thats right, it was my turn. I did not log on yesterday, return one phone call, or even lift the remote control. Any sign of life was forced upon me by the three monkeys invading my death bed.

I hurt my back sneezing and now I am the Hunch Back of St. Louis.

Yesterday I promised Sydney Li she could finally go back to school. She was the first to get over the fevers and the only one to lose her cough.
