I am writing for myself and strangers. This is the only way that I can do it... Gertrude Stein

MIA

I think I have determined today why I was brain dead yesterday: What started as an innocent dripping from my left nostril on Sunday evening has become the Cold That Took Over Jen. I took cold medicine last night, and every four hours, like clockwork, I'd wake up to drip drip drip.

I woke up to tissues all over the bed.

I got up, showered, got boys off to school, and then called into work that I just needed to lie down for a bit.

I slept hard til 11:00 and then felt worse. Emailed work: Not coming in today.

It is now 3:00 p.m. and I still feel like death warmed over. I am just now eating something today: Trix straight from the box.

At least I am clean, though I went to bed with wet hair, and look like Medusa.

My poor doggie needs to come in side now. And I need to go get more tissues and lie down.

Hope your Tueday is going better.
