Still Sick

I've still got the crud.  There isn't too much to report, not much eating or moving unless going from the bed to the couch, or couch to the bed counts.  The good news is the scales are back down from that little blip Saturday AM.  I'm pushing the fluids and trying to get this stuff to move on out, nothing much to report.


Since it is Valentine's Day, I'll share my best memory of the day with you.  I was about 30 and was not in a relationship on Valentine's Day.  Truth be told, I didn't have very many relationships at all, but that's another story.  My sister took my two nephews about 5 and 3 at the time to some fine establishment like the nearby mini mart and bought a single rose and a single, small piece of heart shaped chocolate.  She gave the rose to the five year old to give me and the chocolate to the three year old.  Those sweet boys were standing on my porch when I got home from work and were thrilled to see me and give me my "bal-en-times" presents.  The three year old had held that piece of chocolate so tight in his little fist that most of it had melted in is palm.  It was precious though!  It still brings a smile to my face now.



I'll hold the image of those sweet faces in my head as I doze on the couch for a while now!
