Not Really What I Had in Mind...

...when I said I needed a stay-cation.  Instead, I've been somewhat leveled by a virus/flu/allergy juggernaut - oh yeah.  So instead of filling my days crafting, writing, and just enjoying my house, I'm coughing, napping, and grading.

It's hard for me to be at home but unable to do all the things I need or want to do because of my flagging energy levels.  I'm prone to overdoing it or being too ambitious, thereby delaying my return to health.  I'm working very hard on getting better because we fly to Nashville on Friday morning (hoorah!), and it would suck to be sick there. I'm encouraging the lady friend to take as many preventive measures as possible to avoid taking up the mantle of "sick girl." 

I myself am mixing homeopathic/folk remedies with good old Tylenol and Nyquil - yum!  Tonight's soup should also do me good.
