and I will probably be gone most of the time for several more days. I've been sick again, this time with a terrible cold, sore throat, and all the fun that goes with it. I'm finally getting over the ear infection but every now and again it stops up and it pops when I yawn. :cussing:

I've been trying to clean my house with the help of my kids and Tom is helping some. His uncle comes into town tonight and his flight doesn't get here til 10:45 tonight and he won't get here til about midnight, IF his flight is on time.

So, I've been cleaning, sleeping, cleaning, sleeping, cleaning, sleeping...you get the point. I haven't had much time to get online at all. Last night I got a little over 4 hours of sleep because I was almost too tired to sleep....real tired but the mind wouldn't shut off.

I'm really looking forward to having Tom's uncle here, he's a sweet, kind older man and my kids love him and he loves them. They're going to Tom's jack*ss of a brother's wedding tomorrow that I refuse to go to....long story. But the rest of the weekend we get to spend with him and I am really looking forward to it, but I told Tom last night that this was HIS uncle coming, that he was well enough to get out of the house, drive and do things now that don't require heavy lifting and he HAD to help me out today. So, he is still sleeping but I'm about to put an end to that! LOL

So, just wanted to let y'all know where I have been. OH, and then on Sunday my ex husband is dropping of the Australian shepherd that we bought together 14 years ago....I love that dog, but that means I will have company in my house plus *4* dogs! I don't know how the poor man is going to deal with that. She's old, and she's very sweet and kind, minds and doesn't get into stuff anymore, but it's still another dog! LOL.....so, you see what I mean when I say everyone expects something out of me, I truly mean it. Everyone.

Anyway, I'll get on when I can, but on Monday Tom goes back to work and when I get done running around the house screaming Haleluah (sp??) at the top of my lungs I'll probably just get on this computer and spend half my day here and the other half in the bathtub! :lmao:

No, her cold and sore throat came over to us in Texas!! My son has it really bad. I gave him some Airborne and boy, that helped. Too bad we can't take it. (I looked at the ingred. and the first one is citric acid. (ouch!); amoung other things. but it works -- he's not as bad as he was last week.

Glad you are getting better, though. Take care and enjoy your company (both human and doggy!)

Sorry you have been feeling so bad :(
It is not fun at all to be sick.
You have been so busy the last couple of months with Tom being sick and getting him ready for surgery and then taking care of him after his surgery. You need some take care of Sandy time :)
You have been an awesome friend to me and I just want to say thanks for all of your encouragement and kind words when I needed them the most. You will never know how much they meant to me.
Have a great time with your company and next week after you relax give me a call.
Take care :smile tee

Lord Sandy, it never seems to end for you. No wonder you haven't been around as much. Have fun with your company, my parents are coming for the day on Saturday. It'll be the first time I've seen them since all this money stuff, joy of joys. :grouphug:

Sandy, I am glad that you are feeling better as well. I never (knock on wood) get sinus stuff anymore. I used to dread the fall, but now I love it. My hubby has allergies that can get pretty bad sometimes, but I just seem to stick to this IC and of course I'm clumsy, but not nearly as bad as Sandy! LOL!

Hope all of y'all have your kleenexs around and eat some chicken soup.
