My Thanksgiving holiday is ending up not that great. While I did mange to get some crafting done as well as some school work that I had to do (yes, even on vacation), my hubby has ended up with a major cold. It started off the day before Thanksgiving with a soar throat and a few aches, but he put in half a day of work, and then came home and chilled with the idea of “nipping it in the bud.” Yeah, well, the bud was not nipped, and now he has a fever as well as major aches and pains. I’m hoping we can get him to a doctor tomorrow because not only does he feel awful, but he’s pretty much driving me crazy. He’s too hot. He’s too cold. He needs some soup. I need to check on him more. Then I check on him and end up waking him up when he was finally about to fall asleep. Where is his 7UP? What’s wrong with this pillow! Geez!
I was so not meant to be nurse, and the worst part of all of this is that I woke up with a tickle in my throat today, and there is no way I can miss school this week. I have early morning classes, student presentations that have to be done this week, and one last craft club meeting, not to mention all the research papers that are stacking up in my drop box for me to grade.
Hopefully, some of my fellow craft bloggers had a better holiday!
