SELF INDULGENT WIDOW

Boo hoo.  I've caught a cold.  Achy.  Listless.  Runny nose.  Slight cough.  Sleepy.  And a big baby!

But there's good news!  I can be indulgent.  There isn't anything on this widow's calendar that can't be cancelled or postponed.  On Thursday and Friday I took a three hour nap each day.  Last night I slept 12 hours in a row.  I'm drinking lots of water and tea.  Taking ibuprofen and antihistamine (when needed).  Box of tissues beside every place I could ever be in the condo.

My worst symptom is loss of personality.  I'm grumpy (to paraphrase my almost 4 year old).  I'm lazy.  There are things I could do WHILE being sick.  But I don't want to do them.  I'm sick!



And I'm the only one around to pamper myself.  Time for another cup of tea.  And a nap.
