No Running Tonight, Either

I’m downing my Vitamin C and Echinacea and Hot Lemon Brandy, and I’ve even gargled with that nasty medicine the in-laws gave us. Oh, except we’re out of the “medicinal brandy” so I’m cutting into the eggnog’s Captain Morgan’s rum supply – harrgh maties!

Hubby let me make dinner since he kept the kids alive all day while I was at work. Then Little Darling remembered that she wanted me to teach her to play Battleship.

“Mom! Don’t look at my ships! You’re cheating!”

“Darling, I’m not cheating, I’m teaching. And I DID sink your ship, you didn’t put the peg in!”
Oh yeah, that was great for my struggling voice and patience…

Since I’m sick though? Hubby made me a hot lemon rum (harrr!) and the Boy made me a Nutella and banana sandwich for a bedtime snack. G’night!

    I hope you get better soon Karen! Nothing like a couple of yo ho ho’s and a bottle of run to raise the spirts!

    I’ve been doing the C, echinacia thing, too. Oh, and zinc and Zincom (is that how you spell it?) I think I am finally better today. Hope you will be up and around soon too!

    And lysine! Who told me about that? I think it helps. I’m taking that and extra folic acid and the echanacia too.

    Hope you feel better soon!

    Hope you feel better soon. Try throwing some zinc into the mix (though I believe Captain Morgans will cure anything that ails you).

    Ahoy!
