Are you a good sick person? I mean, do you just grin and bear it? Are you a good patient? You take pain well and don't complain? 1. I'm NOT a good sick person. 2. I'm not a good patient.
I've got what I think is a cold. It has been annoying me for a couple days and today I've been a little off kilter. I feel like I'm walking on a balance beam or downhill, my equilibrium is off-like I've had a couple hard whiskey drinks. Not that I know what that feels like (insert halo here). Joshua didn't sleep well last night because of his shots and ran a small fever. I gave him some Tylenol and he slept some in his swing, but for the most part he wanted to be on me while he slept yesterday. It was misery. I enjoyed kissing his tiny head and smelling his sweet baby skin, but I wasn't feel up to par and I just wanted to rest myself.
Today I put Jacob down for his nap, nursed Josh to sleep and passed out with Josh nestled next to me. We slept. Slept good. The only bad thing...
The doorbell rang. Twice. First time I about bit the guy's head off. He was driving around in his truck selling frozen meat in boxes at high prices. I always scare them off by asking if I can see their permits. They run back to their trucks after telling me they have one and its so weird but all I see of the permit is the dust from their back tires in the air. Freaks. Leave me alone. Second time it was FedEx dropping off Joshua's Christmas stocking from PB Kids. Yay, but don't ring the doorbell dude, just. leave. it. at. the. door.
THEN-as I dozed off again... three very low flying helicopters flew over the house at lightning speed sounding like they are about to drop bombs on my house. I don't know about you, but I hate that. I truly feel like I'm at war when they do that. Not to mention the fact that Callie (our beastly spaniel) barks at ever crick in the house.
Cold, doorbells, cough, barking dogs, low flying helicopters, pesky salesmen, fedex delivery guys, DIE!!!! Ha ha!

Self, you are so hilarious, i love it! Another good one liner for those annoying meat guys is "Sorry, we're all vegetarians!" Haha.
Hope you get to feeling better and get some good Zzzzz's tonight!
Sweet Dreams Sicky!

I will kindly note that you never mentioned my phone call and the message I left as annoyances during your attempted naptime. Thank you!
Yea, I didn't mention that little, itty bitty call because I finally turned the damn ringers off my phone. You weren't the only one that called. I think I caught your crud, over the phone... yup, you're toxic. :o)
