I feel like crap. I mean really, who
gets sick in mid-July? This goofball, that's who. Achy, headache,
coughing, sore throat, fatigue, blah, blah, blah. But hey, it's
nothing that some DayQuil, NyQuil, ibuprofen, cough drops, Zicam,
Onguard essential oil, extra sleep and extra fluids can't handle.
Plus there's my sure will to get better. Ain't nobody got no time for
no cold. So I WILL feel better tomorrow. I've been wearing a mask
around Colby and also keeping my distance, along with washing and
sanitizing my hands every 4 or so minutes. The nurse and I wiped down
everything I possibly could have touched in the last couple days, so
I'm hoping stays sick free. After all, he is turning FOURTEEN YEARS
OLD this Friday. He ain't got no time for no sickness this week or
any other week.
Took Colby to see Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles 2 last week. I've been telling him all summer I'd take him,
and we finally got around to it. I lucked out because it was at the
cheapy movie theater. Also took him bowling with his St X friends
last week. Colby actually beat one of the boys by 4 pins! I was on
fire, bowling a career high 134. Dang, usually if I bowl 100 I'm
doing the happy dance. We're doing a low-key birthday party for him.
Just cake and ice cream with family and friends. My gift to him is
we're going to the Indianapolis Childrens Museum over Fall Break.
Just couldn't get it organized this summer, so early October will
have to do.
I would love to share other great and
exciting news, but we really don't have any. Need to start working on
Colby's bday cake. My friend Nancy is helping me. We already know
what we're doing. No, I'm not telling, it's a secret. I could go
ahead (and should) make the buttercream icing ahead of time. Maybe
tomorrow I'll feel like it. Sure isn't happening tonight.
It's 9:33 and I'll be going to bed
shortly. Hello NyQuil and hello dark bedroom for a lovely night's
rest. Like I said, I will feel better tomorrow. It's swim day and now
way I'm not taking Colby. More soon.
