Sick Mama

 Earlier this week, I was feeling a little

under the weather.

As in, the smell of food made me want to

throw up, and pretty much any noise 

was amplified in my head a billion times.

Migraines are the worst.

 That meant O did some quiet activities.

And I slept, sorta.

 I think she was bored.

Yes, that is a strawberry.

She chewed out the center and stuck it 

to the end of her tongue.

Yep, bored.

Then we got a call.

We have a package waiting for us at

the front desk.

Aren't friends the best?

Especially ones who Fed Ex you 

stuff when you can't get regular old mail.

Seriously, this could not have come at a better time.

O played contently the rest of the afternoon, with new toys.

I even had a few surprises (a purse, earrings, and scarf).  All 

of which was perfect for someone who is starting to become bored 

with  the lack of sparkle in my closet.  

Too much practicality was

packed.

Probably the best part was all of the cards.

So many cards!  Thank you again to everyone

that sent notes.  They are greatly appreciated.

Now that I am back to normal, it is time

to clean up the mess that happens when Mama is sick.

Thankfully in a small space, with few toys

it doesn't take much time at all!
