HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY TO CHRISTOPHER!!

----------------------------------------

7:30am

Still no change with feeling any better.
I woke up to cold chills, fever 100.7
and what felt like the Sahara Desert
in my mouth. It hurts like heck in
my chest and ribs when I cough!
I didn't sleep well and took my inhaler to
bed with me. I had to prop myself up
to sleep because it was more difficult
to breathe laying flat.
I called my mom last night to see if my step-dad
could take her to her dentist appointment today.

I got a cupcake train to finish when I feel
the first burst of energy. I'll just pull up
a stool to the kitchen counter because
you know the feeling you get when feeling
a little tipsy? Well that's how I feel minus the
alcohol. I'm afraid of screwing up these
cupcakes because my mind isn't fully functional
at the moment.
Gosh I sound like a big cry baby at the moment
but it's how I feel. I get agitated not being
able to move around and do things.

-------------------------------------

9:30am

Boy the ibuprofen I've been taking helps
sooo much with body aches and chills! If it wasn't
for that I'd probably be back in bed.
I've been trying to work on the train
little by little.
I took graham crackers and cut each
square into fours to make the wood
for the railroad track.

Sitting here looking out the window
and are starting to see snowflakes, yuck!

------------------------------------

11:00am

I got the train cupcakes completed! Whew!



11:30am - 3:30pm

4 hour nap!
Got up and took some more ibuprofen
due to feeling chilled again.

5:15pm

Feeling a little better thanks to the ibuprofen.
Might try to make it to Ci Ci's tonight.
I'll just have to take it slow and easy!
Oh the things I do for people no matter
how I feel!!!!

What are the chances that I just got an email
from Ci Ci's Pizza with a coupon for
2 can dine for $9.99
which includes 2 entrees and 2 drinks!
This could not have been time any more perfect!!
Sorry it's not a coupon I can share as I have
to print out the email they sent.
You can sign up for their EClub HERE
to be sent special offers!

Well I just submitted my cupcake train
to Jelly Belly's contest.
I think it takes 48 hours before it will
show up on the website.
I called it Jelly Belly Express!

------------------------

5:45pm - 8:25pm

Finally home, whew, what a mess it
was out there. I swear it took about an hour
to go down Morse Rd to Hamilton Rd
because traffic was at a crawl with the snow.
The first thing I ate when arriving at Ci Ci's?
Chicken Noodle Soup!

We stopped in Kroger at Stoneridge since
it was by Ci Ci's. Needed some more
ibuprofen and some batteries for Christophers
train he got for his birthday.
I browsed the mark downs.
Found boxes of candy canes for .10 cents
and bagged peppermints for .25 cents.
Got them to suck on since I'm coughing like crazy.
Also found lil bags of walnuts for .50 cents each.
Christopher found a toy he got with money
the grandparents gave him for his birthday.
It was $29.99 marked down to $14.99.
Anyways I'm glad to be back home
to rest! My body feels jittery when I'm up
moving around like I have little energy.

.
.......And of course with my jitters I had
to make a mess all over me!!
