laid low
a tiny nephew & small niece were here for two weeks, and a tiny niece & small nephew joined them for part of it. needless to say, my time has been occupied. they are all gone now, but they left me with memories and a rather awful cold-flu-what-have-you bug.
if you’re wondering what i’m like when i’m under the weather, here is a story for you.
when i was ill last winter, my mother told me that when someone else is sick, she feels sympathy pains. i asked her if she wanted me to tell her how i felt, so she would know if she was feeling sympathy pains for me. “oh no,” she said. “you have been very explicit. i know exactly how you feel.”
i suppose it’s a good thing for everyone that i am generally well.
still, all is well. we are in the midst of a frigid spell, so it’s a good day to stay indoors. i have hot water with lemon & honey, two unread library books, a sweet pup, and there is a sunny spot in the living room that is calling my name.
i leave you with a wish for sunshine + love + warmth.
may you be well.
May you be well too…very very soon!
oh dear girl. may you be well too.
i had to laugh at your mother’s and your account of sympathy in your time of need!
sick and still with a sense of humor.
that’s YOU!
wishing you well soon. very soon!
and p.s.
adorable as they all are… tinies and smalls
are the greatest little germ carriers of all! LOLOL XXOXO♥
Jerry: Thanks!
Tammy: Good thing they’re adorable! I was certainly happy to snuggle Benjamin last night, as miserable as we both were!
Feel better… Have a hot sauna for me!
hope the sun is still shining in your
happy place
and that each day finds you
weller and weller:)

Amy: I would, but apparently the (sauna) water pipes froze while they were gone to MSP.
Too bad. I could use one.
Jennifer: That is the loveliest wish. Thank you.
