ReplyDeleteYou probably don't want to know that when I was sick with the flu it lasted for days, then the accompanying cough and achiness lasted for weeks, and weeks.
Sorry for the illness, here's hoping things are brighter today
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed you did all of that yard work.
ReplyDeleteCan you take a flu-associated Post Tramatic day and watch your RDJ movie? Seems so sad to leave him unwatched.....

Violetsky - (In my head, I always pronounce it like it's the name of Russian royalty: Violetski). Poor you! That sounds so awful! This was strictly a 24 hour stomach bug.
ReplyDeleteJen - Thanks. So far, so good, today.
Meanie - Come hell or high water, RDJ and I have a date tonight!
Well look at the bright side, you got a whole lot of exercise with the back and forths to the washroom.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that the VVV came to visit your house.
