TODAY


Good morning!

Thanks to those who sent me kind words RE: my health. I am still congested, but I am not coughing every other 5 minutes. Hopefully, the antibiotic is doing its mojo. My cousin called yesterday and chastised me for leaving the house for a hair appt. I'm sorry, but my stylist' last day of work for this week is today; I had to get in there before I return to work on Monday. My hair looked so much better that I winked @ my own damn self (in the mirror) as he was pulling the cape off of me. Mr. A. has continuously called me for the last 2.5 week EVERY day, at least THREE times a day, fussing @ me for being sick and hard-headed. Deep down, I know that he cares. I asked him, "What are you going to cuss me out once this cold ends? He said, "I don't know, but you will do something that is crazy."

I also went to germ city (the grocery store). It was like Mother Hubbard in my residence. Indeed,there was no "food in the cupbards." I only had rice, cans of veggies; cereal, but no milk.
I also picked up the beautiful roses that you see above (sorry for the photo; I wasn't taking out the SLR for one pic of some dang flowers last night). There's always something nice about fresh flowers in your home.

Today:

* I thank God for another day of LIFE
* Mi crazy-ass familia
* I can BREATHE. I haven't had a nose bleed since I started using this prescribed nasal spray.
* I can sleep without coughing through the night
* Winter vacations
* Folks who checked on my ass, especially those who called to see if I was still amongst the living.
* I pray that my voice returns to normal. I am still so nasal.
* I am thankful for Bath and Body Work's sale. Their stuff is overpriced, unless you shop at the the B&BW at the outlet malls. Luckily, I was cutting through the mall to get to Barnes and Noble when I passed by the $3 sign. When I am already spending $2.99 on shower gel from TarJAY, I said, "What the hey?" and went inside. I am going to smell so amazing in a couple of minutes
* Angie becuz I get to participate in her wonderful class today. Girlfriend, I pulled myself out of bed this AM for it. ;)
* I am thankful for the elderly. Although they can wrack your nerves with their stubborness and set-in-concrete ways, you know that they've been through alot, and deserve some props.
* I am thankful for the clean sheets that I am going to place onto my bed this AM. Oh, I cannot wait until my afternoon nap.

Readers:

Today:

* LIVE
* Pick up the damn phone and CALL someone. For once, give your fingertips a break from all that texting.
* Get some flowers
* Take a photo and share it with someone via email
* Talk about the goodness of GOD with someone
* Craft
* Decompress (emotionally)
* Laugh
* Hold someone's hand
* Read. Educate yourself, and I ain't talking about Soap Opera Digest or The National Enquirer.

That's all, FOLKS!
