I is much better...

[joegoda]

The truly bad thing about having been ill on the Orphans Thanksgiving is that I had no appetite at all. I ate some really good ham and some of Sherry's chocolate and peanut butter to die for cookies, and umm.. some dressing and a bit of pumpkin pie, but really, I just didn't have any sort of desire to eat anything. However, I did get a double helping of Hug from my favorite grown niece, AmberBob. After a treat like that, I don't really need to be filled by much more.

Now, NOW! I want pie. I want pecan pie and more pumpkin pie and some apple pie and a bit of apple cobbler and even cherry cobbler. So I went and picked up a Mrs. Smiths, just to beat the craving. Still... I missed having some of Susi's pecan pie with her new crust recipe (I did steal a tiny bit of crust, so I know it's pretty tasty).

On the health side, the cooties have mostly left, my ear has mostly unblocked, but it is still ringing like a constant tornado siren. That'll end once the internal swelling has gone down. Generally, I'm okdoke.

Why is this even remotely important to anyone out there? Because it means I'll be able to finish this goofy novel I started in November. When ill, I just don't like to do much of anything.

Hugs to you, kids! Love you muchly, muchly and with great fondness.

Thank you, miss. Now, I'm a thinking that you're probably more useful getting your new house ready and all that, rather than going hither and yon looking for work. Doesn't mean you shouldn't search, but the universe may be telling you that your priorities may lie elsewhere.

Hugs!

Oh I am not really putting much into the search for now. Just hitting some of the online opportunities. What else have I got to do sitting here from 8:30-5:00? I know, not the best etiquette, but they have dwindled away what responsibilities I have to this point.

I don't plan to go back to work until Richard returns to school after winter break anyway. The boys could really use some time with me. They have been sold short on that over the years.

As often so, you are right on the button with your words of wisdom.

Hugs ya back!

Wisdom? *snort* If I was so wise, would I be where I am? Hmmm. Maybe I would be, at that. Life tends to put me right where I'm needed most. Even if I wasn't wise at all.

*grin* OK ok...
