Delusions of... Everything

Being Sick

Here are some things I learned while being sick:

• Women of a certain age will leak when coughing and sneezing.
• Just when sleep is needed the most a coughing fit will materialize.
• Honey, lemon and hot water work just as well as cough medicine, if not better.
• There is nothing on TV during the day.
• A hot flash plus a fever is miserable.
• It's very hard to be at home in the middle of a weekday and not do chores.
• A sick body will make it very clear that it wants to lay down if chores are attempted.
• Did I mention leaking when coughing and sneezing?
• Missing 2.5 days of work makes for a pile of work to wade through upon return.

I'm happy to say that I am feeling much better today!

Things I Know

If I can't find my brush, Dancing Daughter has it.

I put way too much creamer in my coffee.

If the cat food dish is empty the dog ate it.

When I'm in a hurry I will hit every red light.

If I'm missing earrings, Dancing Daughter has them.

When Geek Guy says he wants a new (fill in the blank) he will research it for weeks, or possibly months, before purchasing it.

I'm the only one in my household who will eat leftovers.

If I plan to go out of town any weekend in April or May, I will miss some kind of Pearl Jam related show.

Any make up I wear won't be washed off before bed unless I take a shower.

If there is an open container of Pillsbury Chocolate frosting in the refrigerator I will eat spoonfuls of it until it's gone.
