December 17th & 18th 2009 Not Under the Tree, Under the Weather!

Apparently I am supposed to slow down a bit. Yesterday I woke up feeling like I was Mac Truck. You know the feeling, your eyes burn, your head pounds, your throat is raw and your body just doesn’t want to move. As I shuffled to the coffee maker, I took the black sharpie I store in my head and started to review my list of things still left to do. Oy vay, it didn’t look good! Frankly, it still doesn’t look good. When life starts dishing out more than its share of tough breaks, I always try to add a little humor. Van Zant has a great song ‘Help Somebody”, in this song which talks about lessons from grandparents, there is a poignant line If you want to hear God laugh, tell him your plans……
God’s getting a good chuckle! So, the baking has come to a screeching halt, the last minute shopping is put off another day, and the blog is on hold. I do have a ray of sunshine in the storm cloud I’m under, my Prince. He’s got his list for today and he’s off. He’ll finish up some shopping, stop by the post office and hit the grocery store. I’m hoping to get through my day at the showroom and after a good nights sleep, be as good as new…….check back tomorrow!
