Why am I up at 12:45 AM? I'm getting a cold! I can't breathe; my nose is running and I can't sleep! I did take something about an hour ago and it seems to take an hour to work so I'm hopeful that I'll feel better soon and go to sleep. I haven't had a cold since before surgery--long before even, so I guess it's my turn but I don't want it!! Well this is two days in a row of my not being in a cheerful mood. That's a record for recently and I'm not happy about it. Oh well, many of you are dealing with serious things and I' on the pity pot, so I'll get off, go to bed again and hopefully go to sleep.

You all have a great day, enjoy the fact that it's not freezing, and that each of us has at least one thing to be grateful for!

I'm grateful it's been so long since the last time I was sick!

Have a lovely day,

Connie

PS, we can't come to the party on March 7th. I didn't look at the schedule and Kay is doing a presentation at "Gardening for Food and Fun". She is teaching how to build your own copper trellis since she built one for our house. Supposedly it's not hard to do, but of course, I have no clue how to do it. C

Good morning,
I can not sleep.  I have a very bad cold too.  I'm even getting a sore throat.  I'm suposed to go to Madison's school today and volunteer, but I think I will be staying home and resting.  My dad did not come because he doesn't want to get sick.  I can't blame him...if he gets sick, it's alot worse for him than us because of his illness. 
Other than that, not much else going on.  I hope everyone has a good day!

GOOD MORNING!

I am feeling good. I have felt good since my surgery. I guess it is the flu shot. Sorry you folks are sick.

Anyway, quick post today I am running late today.

Same thing as every day. Work, school, work, school.

I would like everyone, or at least someone to post on my other thread about calories and losing weight.
It is really on my mind.

Good morning!

I am sorry to hear you are sick Connie and Kim.  I hope you feel better soon.  I woke up at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep.  I don't mind getting up earlier than usual, but thats a little too early for me.  I hope everyone had a chance to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather yesterday.  I didn't get out at lunch like I had hoped, but it was still pretty nice when I got off work.  Nothing much planned for today, just work and taking Jack to soccer practice after.  I hope he does better this week.  He had his first game on Saturday and cried!  He is playing indoor soccer and all the noise in the gym scares him.  I hope it gets better, because I don't want to make him play, but it did cost $70.  Its comical to watch him running back and forth after the ball with his hands over his ears. 

Have a great day!

Hi Janet. Hope you get some good news from the plastic surgeon.

You may be developing a seroma that will have to be drained. I was sort of worried when he took out the last drain since you were draining a good amount.

Let us know how you are doing.

Hugs,
Lucy

 Good Morning Connie and Illinois Friends

Connie and Kim, I found some sugar free Chloraseptic longeses when I got a very bad sore throat and cold last fall.  They REALLY helped.  I got mine at Walmart along with the usual cold medicine.  Hope both of you feel better soon.  Nothing worse than a cold to make you feel miserable.  

Yesterday was a beautiful day for me.  I started work at 8:30 and at 9:30 someone was at my desk asking if I wanted to take the rest of the day off.  Of course I did not have to think twice.  Whoo Hoo.  It was a beautiful day!  I had my windows opened, got my taxes ready for the accountant, went to Wally World to buy a new garbage can for the garbage men to destroy and headed to PT.  Ended up spending an hour doing vigorous exercise in the pool and it felt great!  I also went to the medical supply store and got some knee supports for my knees.  Hopefully that will keep the swelling down and give some support.  

Today is back to the saltmines but it is HUMP DAY!    The week is downhill from here on out.  

Hope everyone has a great day!

Good  Morning on this Soggy Day.

Connie and Kim, both of you try to get some rest today. With the rain, you really don't need to be out in it.

I think half my clients yesterday were sick, If I stay healthy this winter, I will consider myself grateful.

All i have going today is work. I did start a load of laundry and I will do a load of dishes, before I leave, but that is it. Very muldane.

Connie, I was looking forward to seeing you in March, but things do get inthe way. Maybe the next one.

Stay dry today,

Huggers,

LISA
