Veterans Day 2025

I woke up Monday with a hint of a sore throat and tickle in my nose. 

I almost didn't go to Inklings, but you can't stay home every time you have a slight runny nose and I wasn't sure it would turn into a cold. 

 So I went, but then all day I felt worse and worse.

Whoops. :(

I still did all the things at home, but was so happy to turn off my alarms and go to bed.

I wanted to adventure on Tuesday, but in the end I laid around all day sick.

This veteran had a good day though! In honor of Smilin' Jack, he went all around Southern Maryland collecting freebies. He brought home sandwiches and blizzards and chipotle and it was fun for all of us.

This was me half the day, just blending into the couch with my double sweatshirts and wool socks. 

A hot pack on my sinuses feels sooooo good, I heated that rice pack up so many times. Lots of hot gingerbread tea and emergenC and rest mingled in with a little bit of laundry. We also had a nice slightly longer family night because we had all day.

It was clean sheet day and after I made our bed and came out of the bathroom everything looked so pretty and neat with our little bedroom christmas tree. 

I love our bedroom, even though all those pillows can be a pain.

And because I felt gross and you have to shower on clean sheet night, I took a late shower and busted out Matt's towel warmer for its inaugural run. Warm shower + warm towel = heaven. This was a Lu gift to Matt a few years ago and it's pretty bomb.

Now it's Wednesday afternoon and I've spent all day in bed. I made myself stay in bed and it's been a lovely day. I've blogged a little, read a little, sudoku'd a little. Our little Henners is coming for the weekend and Mimi needs to be firing on all cylinders! Gotta get rid of this cold!
