    Cold Season

    Yesterday, we had some more icy rain.  Not too much, just enough to prompt the grown up equivalent of a snow day.   Curling up with tea and books is an excellent way to spend a cold day, especially if you're all shtuffy and congethted and every so often think you're about to cough up a lung.  

    Cold Prescription
    - hot tea (repeat as necessary)
    - warm blankets
    - chicken noodle soup (or equivalent)
    - books
    - sympathetic person, either well or less sick, to turn on the kettle at intervals, bring more books/tea/soup/etc, and inquire about how you're feeling.
    - gatoraid, fruit juice, water
    - cough drops
    - vitamin C
    - sleep, sleep, sleep!

    So far it seems to be working.   I am definitely improving, I feel much better than yesterday.

    Just popping by to say hello! Lovely photo, by the way!

    Dear Twin, I can't believe everyone is going to see you and I'm not! I am very sad, but band is band and I keep my word, even when it hurts. And it does hurt-- I really, really wish I could skip the band competition and come down! I miss you! I am also sending some stuff with Sarah for you. :-) I

    Dear Twin, I need your home address, so I can send you a letter! Please email it to me? Love, Twin

    Crazy Gnat, You left your dress at my house, I think. You'd better come back again and get it. You didn't leave a heart shape necklace or a single earring, too, by any chance, did you? They might of course belong to someone else.

    (lemurs make good henchmen... but feel lucky I didn't say aardvarks!) My mother told me to say my favorite kind of chocolate is dark... and you know, she's probably right, since the last time someone gave me baker's chocolate as a prank, I wasn't sure it was really a prank, and I kind of liked i

    Hmm. I don't like this. My sister(s? apparently that make you my sister) is(/are?) keeping secrets from me. If you want to be *her* twin you have to send me five dollars. Thanks for asking. Five dollars more and you actually receive my blessing. Thanks a million, sister! ('Sucker' may be substituted

    Dear Twin, Well, at least the possibility is still up in the air, instead of lying flat on its back panting for breath while evil lemur henchmen kick it mercilessly. Anywhos, if you do end up visiting family, hope you have a mahvelous time. And if you do end up visiting me, you will have a mahvelou

    Fairly regularly, although I cherish the hope that I'm getting better. On the other hand, I have a loft bed, with a board just above eye level, and I frequently whack my head on it. So maybe I'm not getting better, just redirecting. *sigh* ;-)

    No way.. you walk into door frames too?!!
  • Han_the_Roo
    Dear Twin, I hope you can come visit me! I talked to Mrs. J last night and she mentioned the possibility(!!!) You are most certainly and completely invited and welcome. And you can stay with us... the way it is looking we're going to end up with a bunch of BOYS at our house, and I guess boys are a
