Sick Today and the Slumber Party

Today I'm not feeling well. I've caught a cold that seems to be getting worse by the day! Sunday it started with a sore throat, Monday I sneezed all day so I took 2 Benadryl capsules and went to bed at 8:30. Yesterday I was woozy from the 2 Benadryl I took the night before and spent most of the day trying to wake up. Today I'm sneezing my head off, I have a runny nose and my stomach hurts. I'd love to go home and sleep the rest of the day but I can't. All I can think of is my daughter's slumber party on Friday night and all the preparations I have to make.

Of course, the slumber party should be fun. . .it's a 1980's party! My daughter is planning on wearing jeans with leg warmers, a big t-shirt cut at the neckline to hang off one shoulder, lots of plastic bangle bracelets and, of course, some big plastic earrings that were mine in the 80's. Since she has naturally curly hair, it'll be easy to duplicate the spiral perm with an old banana clip and she's planning on wearing make up that I will put on her, just like I used to wear. I'm really looking forward to the party, if only I could get over this cold!

I hope everyone is enjoying their day and please remember to pray for our troops. My cousin, Jan, deployed to Iraq today so say a special prayer for her.

Hi Jade,
Hey, I think I have that cold too. My throat hurts, and my sinuses just cleared enough to smell the dog. Boy, he stinks.

I'm giving him a bath now.

I'm beginning to feel better today. Hope you're feeling better, too. I'm sure the dog does!

Jade,

Hope you're better and ready for the slumber party. I know Nicole will have loads of fun with her friends. I remember when I had a few slumber parties in my young age. They were the BEST!

Miss ya!

The slumber party went off without a hitch. The girls seemed to have lots of fun and looked so cute in their 80's outfits!
