Holidays...

Holidays have a way of bring the "flu" around to just about everyone. I have been so careful to keep up on my vitamins and get the flu shot and lysol wipe my desk at work everyday and wash my hands and all the "precautions" we are told to do so that we don't spread the germs. And here it is one day before we are supposed to leave for Oklahoma and I come down with laryngitis and bronchitis. I can't talk, and when I can talk, I am coughing my head off. I'm trying to finish up school projects and pack and get all the last minute arrangements made for all the animals, but all I really want to do is get in bed with a bottle of cough syrup and a box of tissues and sleep through Thanksgiving. Thank goodness I have an awesome manager who sent me home the minute that she heard my voice, or lack of voice, so I don't have work to worry about for a week. Now that I have vented about my woes of life, I really am excited to eat lots of food for Thanksgiving. And see my family that I haven't seen for a few months at least and some of them a while longer than that. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!
