Went back to bed and napped for a couple of hours and felt a lot better so came through to the kitchen thinking i might try a piece of toast to find **mr ems** cooking bacon and the smell is making me want to throw up again. Bleurgh. He is the best husband ever though - he has finished all the unpacking I hadn’t done and folded all the laundry and put away the suitcases and been to the grocery store this morning. And brought me some flowers. And told me I look pretty even though I have seen myself I the mirror today. 😛 Best. Husband. Ever. ---

Another household with corned beef cooking in the crockpot. I think I’m getting Teh Sick. Sinuses have been runny for a couple of days, but now have turned up the volume and my throat is getting sore. :grumble: Anyone wanna snog? ---

I was awake at 11:45 last night and I don’t remember after that until the dog woke me at 4 something. I had my doggie bag from dead lobster for N.O.L. I wasn’t impressed with the food. I like my shrimp a little less translucent. However, their doggie bags are microwave safe so a little nuke uncleared that up. 2013 has to be better than 2012, right? Do resolutions start today or can they wait until tomorrow? {{{spaz}}} ---

We spent about 3 anna half hours at the office and got some good work done. Then we ran by Food Lion for a few things and came home for a late lunch of turkey sammiches. It’s a lazy afternoon. I need to wash a load of knitted stuff to get rid of critter hair and critter spit. Then I’ll bag it up to go to my mom’s. I’m working on a pink afghan right now - it’s slow going, but it’s a pretty pattern - I’ve made it twice before. I think I’ll assume the position after I start the washer. Good times! ---

\ Must have had too much coffee last night, ‘cause the amaretto and sparkly stuff didn’t even gimme even a tiny buzz! But it was good 🙂 Cleaning up after last night, getting laundry done, pups are sleeping, kitties are sleepin’. And now I want a bloody mary with bacon, mmmm! ---

> [@anyrose](#): > > I meant to say before, **gt** , those are great photos. Thanks! Hope the headache goes away soon. Additional good vibes heading in the **SpazFamily’s** direction. Happy New Year to all! Here’s hoping lots of lovely experiences are in store for everyone. I’ve made up a bunch of potstickers to go into the freezer. Have started the sauerkraut (with apples, onion and cider). Took apart a pomegranate for the fruit salad. Am about ready to make the mashed potatoes and pork chops that will be dinner. Back to doing stuff. Hugs. GT ---

Everybody has gone home. YAY!!! It was great but I’m ready for some quiet now. Dishwasher is doin’ it’s thang and I’m in chill mode. AHHHHHHHHHHHH… Oh wait… I gotta go throw banana peels, or fruitbats, or Hummel figurines at **flytrap** so I guess I can’t chill just yet. 😃 ---

Corned beef is out of the pot and resting before we commence to eatin’. In the interest of quality assurance, I cut a piece off one end and it was Teh Num. My throat isn’t quite as sore, but now I’m coughing up lung oysters. Bronchitis will not make for a fun week. :mad: ---

I’m not going to ask how you happened upon that site… Knitted items are washed, softened, dried, and packed up for whenever I get up to Mom’s next. I had an afghan, a lap robe, a shawl, and 7 hats! The bag is full, and I’m working on the next bagful. Does keeping my fingers limber with knitting and crocheting help make me safer against arthritis? I like to think I’m getting a personal bonus for doing good deeds. 😃 ---

Aw, one of my coworkers made me a [YouTube video](http://youtu.be/1kFIU5STx9U). 😃 I’m all warm and fuzzy now. Well, I’ll be warm once I turn the heat up. Dang, it’s cold up in here.
