Hello everyone.
I figure most of you will be reading this post on your Monday morning or afternoon. I hope your day is going well. For me right now its 115 am and I am getting ready to try to fall asleep in a few minutes. I haven't been feeling that good tonight and husby also hasn't been feeling good either. I think we both are getting the flu. I think its a slow start.. you know, cold first and then it will just continually get worse. Tonight my nose is runny, I am dealing with a little headache, I also think I have a fever but what bothers me most of all is how badly my body is aching. I took a long hot bath and for a hour or so after, I felt fine. But the later it gets, the worse I feel.
I just made myself a BIG cup of hot tea..
hoping it might help me feel better.
This is the Prince of Wales tea and its a dark yummy tea.. One of my favorites.
Today was pretty simple. The guys got the garage all organized.. surprised either of them got out there to do it. I think both had too much to drink last night and was feeling hung over but they did it.. All of Michael's stuff is organized and now my car and fit back in. I hate leaving it out in the driveway. Its a really nice car and I worry about someone trying to break into it. We really live in a safe neighborhood and haven't had any issues but I just feel better with it in the garage. I saw a Mini Cooper that I liked a lot the other day and seriously thinking about trading the Jaguar in on it but husby doesn't seem to like that idea. Never know though. Anyway the guys went to town for a while and I went to CVS and found some new products.. If you didn't see that post you can click HERE to get to it.. Found some more 2012 products that I can't wait to put to the test. In the coming days I will get the reviews up.
Around 4 pm we took off to Rock Hill South Carolina. Scott and I needed to run a few errands there so away we went. It took an hour to get there one way.. so it was a long ride. We did what we needed to do and then we were heading back. I slept all the way. That's about the time I started feeling worse.
Thankfully, I got dinner put in the oven on low before we left. Michael was home and was keeping an eye on it..
Here is what we had..
Just a simple roasted chicken and veggies.
Super simple and was really good. I was happy that the oven did all the work for me.
After dinner it was time to relax.
Here willow and I am. She was laying on my calender and I was laying behind her. This cat has to be one of the sweetest cats on the planet. I swear we could operate on her awake and she would still be kind.
Even though its late, I have been in bed since 11pm. REALLY.. I am just not feeling good and it just feels better being up here.
I got all the coupons I need to clip out..
Look at how many I got.
See how think the stack is?
I seriously should have been clipping these as I got them.
Since I was feeling so bad, I decided to just say screw it and wait till tomorrow. I have to go to the store on Tuesday so tomorrow I have to do it.
Instead of clipping the giant pile of coupons, I put on a old movie..
See if you can guess what it is from the pictures below..
Did you guess?
The Bridges of Madison County.
While I don't agree with infidelity, this story is so profound of a love affair that just couldn't be. That her family came first but she was close to leaving with him. Sometimes love isn't perfect and doesn't turn out the way we would have hoped... but I still think its better than to have loved and be loved than never experience it before. I have said it many times and I will continue to say it..
I KNOW without a shadow of a doubt.. that all we take with us when our lives are over is
OUR LOVE AND OUR MEMORIES..
So fall in love as many times as you can with as many things as you can and make as many good memories that you can fill your soul up with. That's all that matters.. Truly.
[ In the middle of this post, I got a phone call from one of my uncles...His father has been having health issues for a while and now its coming to an end. My Uncle Buddy actually sounds like he is growing up. I know this might sound strange but if you knew him, you would understand what I mean. He is having to make some pretty hard choices tomorrow.. Hospice or trying other measures and he's not sure what to do but I think am glad he called. He is in a lot pain and has never really had to deal with death before. So if you are reading this, please keep him and his father in your prayers. When he calls me at 130 am.. I knew it wasn't good news. ]
Well its 2am at this point and I am going to lay back , close my eyes, and hope to feel better tomorrow. My only real plans are to clean up the house.. which is my normal Monday activity. I don't do much cleaning on the weekends because we are all here and its not easy to clean around my husband or Michael. That's only happening if I get feeling better.
So Sweet Dreams
Have a great Monday..
xoxo
