Merry Christmas!

So, I'm updating a little while I can, but I probably won't do much for the next few days. I did go to the hospital this morning, and they did bloodwork and x-rays and rules out pneumonia and all kinds of other things. It is s virus, a terrible virus, and I will have to wait it out. In the meantime, I will run a fever, have sores in my mouth, and other delights I won't even mention.

K made the Christmas eve meal tonight all by herself; I was very proud of her. I couldn't eat it, of course, but I was proud that she did it. I'm not gong to the ILs tomorrow with the Hubs and the girls. I'll be in touch with my sister during the day and maybe she'll drop in on me. Each time I remember the last Christmas I stayed home -- 16 years ago, after the brain tumor -- and I remember that my parents came and spent the afternoon with me, I get all misty and start to cry. I have been missing them very much these days.

Okay. I just need to go back and take out all the typos that I don't wan't you to see , and then I can post. At the moment, this really looks like it was typed by a monkey. (But pneumonia I got right the first time.)

  4. Merry Christmas to YOU! I'd come and hang with you, if I could. But it's a bit of a drive from RI to NJ. ;o) It's just going to be the three of us this year anyhow. My parents were supposed to have this major renovation going on at Christmas, but that was postponed to February. Their house is a mess, regardless, so we will stay here. And then it was just too expensive to fly to Arizona to see the ILs. I'm sorry you're sick at this time of the year. I sure hope the virus lets go its chokehold on you soon! *HUGS*
