COVER YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU COUGH!!

This is me.....and my poor husband...we are held up in a hotel waiting for the


coughing, sneezing, sniffling, and runny nose to go away. We cant do much without getting soooooo tired.

I do have a confession, I wasn't too tired to go over to "I have a notion" and take advantage of her 25% off sell...but now I must lay down.....

We have seen our son from Iraq and the two sons that live here, they will be by later....so all is not lost...just alittle set back. Please ask my mother not to be angry if we can't make it by her place in Lousianna....we are sorry....truly sorry...

And with that I will add my letter to Santa,

Dear Santa,

I guess it will make me a bad girl to not be able to go and visit my mother. I did buy her gifts and really wanted to see her...will still try. Does that make me really really bad? Can't I atleast get one gift? I promise to be good next year.

oh...also Santa, I am not in American Samoa right now, will you be able to find me? You can leave my gift at my sons apartment (oh...he hasn't been good either.....well....I have three sons here in Texas....isn't one of them any good?)...Oh...okay, my son from Iraq, he was doing a good thing for our country....so surely you will drop something off for him and a little something for his mom? You will see what I want below....oh...please...please...please......I really will be good.

the fat quarter bundle...

  1. Resting is much more important than shopping when a girl is going to be seeing her sons. Sleep girlfriend :)

    And may Santa bring you some Love....lots of Love.

    Smiles,

  2. Barbara, I certainly hope you both feel better very soon. Nothing worse than going on a trip to visit family and then ending up in bed sick the entire time. I'm so sorry. I'm sure your mom (and Santa) both understand. Besides surely your mom doesn't want to catch whatever you are suffering with. Well, I'll let you go lay down. Get some rest and I will be keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers. **whispering** and I hope Santa grants your wish, I think it would help you feel better real quick. Hugs coming your way.

  3. Sorry you are still feeling sick. The tickle in my throat and the cough won't quit from my cold of a couple of weeks ago.....very annoying (I say....coughing even as I type this....*sigh*)

  7. Icky sicky, boo and bah humbug!! I'm sure your mom will understand (we Moms are like that you know). Lots of rest and plenty of fluids as they say, and of course all the prayers going your way will surely help. Oh, and Santa knows how good you are--look at all you did to help the tsunami victims!!

  18. Hope you are feeling a bit better by now. Sounds like you have the flu of some sort. It's hard to be away from home when we get sick. Rest is important...so rest! We just got our H1N1 vaccinations this week. The Swine flu is still going strong here in Minnesota.

    Take care, be well soon!
