So now I've got *their* cold... YUCK!

Well I guess I should be thankful for small mercies that with two kids who've been sick off and on since November, that I've lasted this long before succumbing to it!

My "valentine's" day has so far been spent in bed (thankfully hubby had a snow day), with some beautiful red roses in a vase next to me, and breakfast in bed. I look frightful. I have this big red stuffy nose thing going on, and I'm laying under the covers wearing fleece lined sweat pants, and a hooded jumper, along with pink furry ugg boots. Just what your husband wants to wake up to, on an impromptu day off, and valentine's day no less... oh well! Oh and did I mention I've still got my damn period?

I struggled to get myself into the shower - feeling very fuzzy in the head department... I managed to get myself quite high last night (unintentionally people), but I didn't really stop to think what would happen to someone who takes 40 mg of Focalin for her ADD, two of those Mucinex pills, and then to be sure I'd sleep a 3 mg lunesta. I could barely walk up my stairs! Totally spacey (although a little interesting)... and god I had the best night's sleep EVER. I don't really ever sleep well, and when I'm not feeling good, forget about it, I'm miserable because I can't sleep, and I'm miserable because I can't breathe or lay down to try and sleep!!

I ran out to CVS last night to pick up the mucinex -- you have to show your id now for it.. I guess they thought I'd be trying to snort it, or get high on it... silly buggers. ;-)

While at CVS I was assaulted by all the damn red and pink blingy stuff that was hanging from every square inch of space in the store, not too mention all the crowds of people who were there buying sucky chocolate (come on.. if you're going to eat the calories, at least get the good stuff - Russel Stovers is SO NOT the good stuff....) but people were buying it in volumes.

I don't know about you, but I really don't want flowers, or dinner, ok I'd probably eat some good truffles, but what I'd really like is to wake up to sparkling clean toiletsthat were freshly scrubbed, none of his or the kids clothes on the floor, but in their own hampers, dishes washed, and actually put away, instead of just sitting on top of the dishwasher, and my kids in "his" own clothing, and my daughter in "her" own clothing. Right now, my son is wearing my daughters winter white cable sweater....??? and my daughter is wearing her brother's navy blue hooded fleece. My husband really doesn't get the whole individual clothes thing...

I sound sooooo whiney --- I should be saying how wonderful it is that he got the kids up, dressed in something, and fed, and here we are 5 hours later, and they're still walking, talking, and uninjured! I did say thank you for the flowers and breakfast in bed ;-)
