Sniffle

All week last week I kept noticing people sniffling.
And coughing.
And losing their voices.
Asia came home from Yakima on Thursday with the bug.
He still hasn't kissed me yet...
And I still caught it.
So my voice hurts whenever I talk.
And my throat burns.
And I'm achy.
Makes me just want to crawl in bed.
Thank goodness for Nyquil.
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.
I'll be okay in a few days, I suppose...

    This comment will be totally unrelated to your ailing self but I wanted to say that I enjoy reading your blog and I think it's because you simply seem pretty content with life. Maybe it's because I know you but it's weird. Your words sort of eek of contentment even when you mention a struggle or two. Kind of weird but evidence of a deep peace within. That's my take on things anyway. I'm not big into many blogs but yours is a wee touch of goodness each time I check in and it's nice to keep up on the fam. Kudos on a great job with consistency and good stuff.

    You totally made my day.

    Thanks.

Happy Birthday Cathy! , originally uploaded by Pink Paper Peppermints . All of these sweet bloggy friends threw me a cyber-birthday party! How fun is that? Thank you, dear friends. I am touched. It's really just what I needed today. Sweet Tanya even made me a cake. If you want to follow the party around cyber-space, you can go to Melissa's blog to see everyone who is participating.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
