Sick Days

Today is day 2 of being sick. I have caught the inevitable winter sickness and have been bed ridden for the past two days. I am thankful for Amazon Prime and it's free streaming of Alias, my Kindle (I'm reading The Snow Child, and I just can't stop), Zycam (the cold killer), chap stick, and my wonderful boyfriend who has come over both days to fix me lunch. 

The upside to being sick these past two days is that I have not had to go outside into this horrible weather! It has been cold and rainy and miserable outside and I am just as happy to not have to set a foot in it. Tonight things could get interesting here, we are under a ice storm warning and it could either get really ugly or be totally anti-climactic and just rain. Either way, the people of Nashville are panicking, and I am thankful I didn't have to try and drive to and from work in the madness. I will take my warm bed and my tv marathon any day over that.

Well, the boy is on his way over with Psych to keep me company (being sick can be so lonely) and I have a pot pie in the oven so it promises to be a pretty good evening despite the sniffles and body aches.

I hope your Tuesday finds you well and without ice falling from the sky.

Happy Monday! (I'M BACK)

After almost 2 months without internet at our home this weekend we FINALLY got it back! I have been so excited to be back in the internet world on a screen bigger than my little iphone. I have to admit though, it was kind of nice to not have the option to spend hours online everyday, especially during the holidays. It made me focus on those around me more and come up with other ways to spend my time. There are many things that it kept me from doing, though, that I really do need to work on. Like, finding a new car, or doing some future planning, etc. All of that to say, I am glad to have internet back but I am thankful for the time without it as well.

Life these past few months has been wonderful. I am still loving my new job, I got to go home and spend time with family, there was lots and lots of food and relaxing and reading and sitting by the fire and all the wonderful things that the holidays at home bring.

Now it's the new year and it brings an excitement all it's own. Of course there are the New Year's resolutions (which I can never fully develop by the beginning of the year, I'm still working on mine) and the anticipation of what 2013 will bring. I have a feeling it is going to be one of the best years yet.

Ok, I am going to wrap up this "all over the place" blog post. I just wanted to say Hello and that I'm back and will be posting a little more often now. :)
