I apologize for disappearing for a few days. After Christmas, my family and I have struggled to fight off colds and flu, and in the last few days, my cold has knocked me straight on my rear end. Last night was the worst. I hardly slept at all with loads of congestion in my head. I had to take 2 sudafeds to feel somewhat better - but even at that, it dried up everything BUT my nose and sinuses. I woke this morning feeling like hell, and wondering if I should even come within feet of my son, but my husband had more to do today that most days, so I had to suck it up. I convinced him to visit the drug store for some DayQuil for me before he went to work. He's a wonder - he did THAT, as well as fed the little man AND bought me breakfast.
I can tell you that DayQuil is my new friend. NyQuil will be my friend tonight. I'm feeling somewhat human again after taking DQ. I was at least able to wash my face and put make up on. I haven't done that for days now, nor have I left the house. I haven't really wanted to, honestly, just feeling so crappy.
Anyway, I think I'm "back." I finished the Secret Life of Bees the other night. Great story. I loved it. I've skimmed Chapter 2 of Purpose Driven Life. I need to go back over it - but honestly I don't think I have much to say about it, so I may combine chapter 2 and 3 in my next post. I will as soon as possible. I'm still not 100% yet, so it may take me another few days to get back on track.

Glad to hear you're feeling better! DayQuil and NyQuil definitely do wonders...so hang in there! Happy New Year by the way! Crazy it's 2008! ~Emily
Girl, when I was sick over the week of Christmas, NyQuil and I got to be best friends. Don't do what I did though. I was out of DayQuil and thought, Hmmmm. I need to take something and all I have here is NyQuil. Surely half a dose won't knock me out for too long. Wrong-a-roni! Took it at 9:00 am and slept until 1:00. I woke up, drank some water and was sure someone had slipped me a mickey. I decided to "close my eyes for just a few more minutes". Hey - I felt much better when I woke up at 6 pm. I love NyQuil and I love my bed!
