Art as Spirit
STATES I'VE VISITED

Stuffed Up

I finally went to the doctor yesterday for the upper head congestion that's been plagueing me since before Thanksgiving. Yep, got a sinus infecton. So after going to work and flying and pretending forever that I didn't have it, I let the doc's diagnosis allow me to succumb to it. I came home, climbed into bed and didn't get up until this morning. Before I was able to do this, I went to court, went back to the office, typed up 20 reports, packed up my stuff, slid in the snow and landed on my butt carrying a vase of flowers (didn't spill an inch of water!), drove to my daughter's school, signed her out because she was sick, went to the grocery store, delivered her and the groceries home, then went to the doctor, then came home and made a late lunch and collapsed. Daughter was in bed next to me and we had contests about who had higher temperature (she won).

I watched bad TV for several hours, held Middlesex in my hand but my eyes hurt too much to read. Today is a little better and I'm doing fun stuff like the wash, and my son's college applications (he's at work, he's not loafing around). Hubby bought the fixin's for the Super Bowl Sunday bash - which in my house means chili, and me watching TV upstairs while he watches the Super Bowl and he yells up to me when the cool commercials come on

Ah, life in the fast lane. This is why we left our gigantic house and inground pool in Memphis and moved back to Noo Yawk City!!
