It's just a cold

The "Tollway Tatters" get-together will not have me in attendance today, as I am currently just a collection of very nasty germs. It's only a cold, really, but one of the worst ones that I have had. So, my energy is being all used up to just fight this thing and hang on until it passes. I do feel slightly better today, and am eating, so maybe later today I may feel up to tatting, but right now all I can manage to do is sit on the couch and watch TV.  I enjoy "Pawn Stars" and the shows where they take old cars and fix them up and customize them. I don't know anything about cars, but design creativity is design creativity in any form, it seems to me.

So, I'll just take care, and when I'm better I plan on dyeing another batch of "Sugar Maple".

Thanks, Fox, I'm glad that the cold waited until after the family vacation :)

oh no! I hope you feel better very soon! My man loves Pawn Stars and the shows where they fix up cars. I see enough of those shows that I have no interest in watching them when I am apart from him. (Which during the week) I tend watch Psychological dramas, but they may not be something to watch when all you need to is rest. :o)
Have fun dyeing! Wish you didn't feel like you are dying!
I hope this haiku I wrote for you makes you smile:

Have some fun dyeing,
I wish you felt well and not
Like you were dying.
<3<3<3

What a bummer, to have a summer cold. Unsolicited advice: get a lot of rest, drink lots of fluids and take vitamin C! Hope you feel better soon. It's too bad you'll miss the "Tollway Tatters" today. I'm sure they'll miss you but would rather you didn't share the germs :-P

Thanks, tattrldy, yes I'm doing all those.

Hope you soon feel better, sorry I have never heard of pawn what's it. If its that good I hope it comes over the pond. I enjoy NCIS only it's finished it's run for now and i hope it comes back.

Thank you, Margaret, the best that I can explain Pawn Stars is that it's a resale shop, and people bring in all sorts of things to try to sell there, many with an interesting history.

Always remember, it could be worse. It could be the dreaded Man Cold! We all know how devastatingly horrible those are to get over! ;-)

Hope you feel better soon! (My unsolicited advice: If you feel congested, steam yourself! Turn on the hot taps in the bathroom, full blast, and let the steam break up the yuck ---or just put a towel over your face and lean into the steam from the sink. That's been my answer to yuck since forever, LOL).

Thanks so much for the well wishes, I think they're helping! I am feeling a little bit better today, and will try to keep things moving in that direction.
