Been sick...what else is new??

Well, I have spent most of last week and all weekend sick. This all started Wednesday with stomach problems and I had to leave work and go home because of it. If that weren't enough then I came down with a sinus infection. My sinus' feel as if someone is poking a red hot ice pick up my nose just for the hell of it. And I know I have lost I don't know how many I.Q. points from sneezing. I'm not coughing (thank you Jesus) its just all in my head. I know some of you have been dying to tell me that it is all in my head, now I have said it for everyone. I feel like, well you know how you would feel if someone had an icepick up your nose. I have taken medicine at night that helps me sleep since I can't breathe and then medicine in the morning that is suppose to not make me sleepy so now my brain is not really sure what it suppose to be doing. All weekend the dogs have encircled me not letting me out of their sight. They do this everytime I am sick. I can't move without a dog, especially Dakota, being right there. Imagine if you will, you are sleeping or trying to because you are sick and being flanked on either side by a Siberian Husky. They lay so close that they actually keep the covers so tight that you can't move or pull the covers off when you get hot. Or try just going to take a hot bath and being stared at by a dog as big as you are. Sunday I was sitting at my new computer watching a DVD and someone knocks on the door, Indigo jumps up and begins to bark, not just any ole bark but this half growl half bark thing. I only mention this because they never bark unless they have to go potty. I don't care who comes to the door they just sit and stare at them. But because I'm sick and its their job to be my fearless protector he starts acting like he's going to kill someone. Turns out it was a neighbor child coming over to borrow barbecue sauce. Silly dog!!!

I crocheted my very first purse for the swap I'm participating in on Crochetville. I have never done this before and it looks right but I am sooooo nervous about sending it to the girl I made it for because I have never done it. I'm so worried that she will not like it or I didn't do it right or something. Everyone that sees it likes it but I'm not so sure its good enough. It's springy I can say that for sure and it will hold up and is washable.
that's all I can think of today, maybe my brain won't be so full of ........what its full off tomorrow and I can write more.

Happy Hooking,

carol, i hope you feel better very soon. i am sure your purse is adorable. and your partner will love it. i hope we can all show our bags and totes when we get them, i joined the swap too and also now am in the secret pal swap. i thought it would help me not think about things ya know, and besides i love making and giving things to people. is more fun than just making them to sell, i would rather give someone something and have their eyes light up, than have to haggle with a buyer who acts like they are doing you a favor by taking that item off your hands , cause after all is not that great
(according to them LOL LOL)thanks for being such a great friend. i hope we can get together and chat soon, come on in when you are on and see if i am on, i often am at different times. anyways instead of writing a novel here i will just say. hope you get well very soon and huggggs
