I decided to get sick over the last couple of weeks. You know, just for something to do. I’ve never had a flu or cold take so long to peak. It gradually became worse over a week, then finally hit maximum sickage on about day eight. By day ten, I decided I shouldn’t mess around since my immune system is compromised from my MS med, so I went to the clinic. Mike joined me and we were the second ones there once they opened. The doctor gave me some antibiotics, nasal sprays and sent me on my merry way. The severity of the sinus pain I was experiencing was certainly in the top five I’ve had. Meds are doing the trick and I’m on the mend. At least I had lots of great company while recovering:
Little Peanut was all smiles, as usual:
We played a few games, such as ring toss:
Boo was thrilled:
Of course, Pinky was her usual, bloated, blobby and adorable self:
Poor sheep never had a chance.
My little mother came over one day last week. While I was bidding her farewell in the parking lot, I became very concerned when I saw this tiny shoe:
I ran after her car yelling “Mother, oh tiny mother of mine! I do believe you may have lost one of your minuscule shoes! Oh the humanity!!!!” After calling me a few choice names, she told me that was not her shoe and drove home.
I was going through some old pictures and found this nice one of my last furry cat, Beau, and her naked little friend Mya:
I can’t believe how fuzzy Mya’s tail used to be! I guess we all lose hair when we get older. At least she didn’t lose her cuteness and manners. Oh wait. I put a plate on the floor last night after nomming a brownie, and Miss Manners decided to walk over it three times:
Ugh.
Today’s symptoms: Feeling much better. Still have a pretty bad sinus headache but much of the congestion and wheezing has bid my bod adieu! Fatigue is a bit worse than usual but I’m sure that’s just from the infection. All is well in the world.
