  • It Figures I Am Sick Today, Right?


    TALES FROM THE BRAT FARM

    I wasn't scheduled to have Chewlee today so I had made some plans last night about what I was going to do today.  That was all doomed to change.

    First of all, I woke up and, as I got to my feet, the bottoms were so painful that I almost threw up then and there.  I gingerly made my way to the bathroom, bathed my face in some cold water, did my normal morning ablutions and then tried making it to my computer room to see if it got any better.  It didn't.  I sat up at the computer, checked my email, did a little bit on Pogo and then decided I needed to get my feet up.  I fell asleep for a while then had to (almost) scream my way to the bathroom.  That is when the Princess texted me to say she had been called into work for this evening so would/could I watch Chewlee.  She also said I would get Tuesday off so I would still have my two days in a row off.  I figured I would feel better by the time she dropped her off and promptly put the feet up and fell back asleep.

    I kept waking up sick to my stomach and decided it was pain that was doing it.  Every damn time I overdo the walking around because the feet don't feel all that bad, I have this happen and I never seem to learn.  That is blonde to the bone!

    Thankfully, the Beast was in a good mood and he kept Chewlee occupied.  They watered the plants (and each other in play) and Chewlee got to chase Baron around trying to water him, too.

    It was evening before I really felt better and could get around but I am taking it easy this time.  Doesn't do me any good to have a relapse every other day, now does it?

    Love you all and I wish you a less hot week ahead.  Be careful.  Be cautious and I'll try to remember the same thing.
