I'm still under the weather. Perhaps tomorrow will be a better day. I sure hope so!

Tuesdays With Tag - Standin' Guard...

Hi, Everybody!

I bet you're wonderin' what the heck I've been doin' lately. I wish I could tell you I've been sailin' the high seas or herdin' sheep in the Andes, but no such luck. My days have been less than interestin' since Mom caught Dad's cold. She's no fun at all when she's sick.

We just sit in the sun while she tries to feel better, but there's nothin' strenuous (spelled "P.L.A.Y.") goin' on until this blight leaves our home. I'll just stay close to make sure no one sneaks up on us. (Yes. That is Mom's foot next to me!) Could someone get a lily to stick in her paws?

I'll be back next week. Hopefully, Mom and Dad will both be feelin' better soon! 

I'll see you in seven. 'til then...

I Fought The Good Fight...

It was an epic battle. The battle between "cold" and "no cold". I drank lots of orange juice. I sprayed Lysol spray on everything. I put Mentholatum in my nose (I'm not sure why). I even did the "Tupelo Cure" (Tupelo honey and ground cinnamon by the teaspoonful).  I tried everything I could think of and I thought I was winning...I really did.

But, when Handsome started coughing, I knew it was all over. Short of running around the house in a white, surgical mask, I knew I was doomed.

It hit me hard on Saturday, and now I'm the one coughing, sneezing and speaking in a bass voice. I just couldn't sit around doing nothing. I took my time and hung out in the studio for most of the day. No "heavy machinery", mind you. I stayed away from my sewing machines.

I managed to cut out the parts and pieces for ten new wallets. Everything is ready to go when I am. That won't be today. Today, I'll continue with the orange juice, and perhaps get a little solar therapy in the Holidome. Sunshine helps cure colds, right?
