Imaginary Fights

I have been a bit AWOL around the blog world recently - work, school, home, and all other areas of my life have kept me busier than normal.  Way busier than normal.  Last week I had a conference, meetings, a big project for work due, a final, lots of shopping, holiday parties, and much more.  I'm tired just thinking about it actually.

The week so wore me out that I now have a scratchy throat.  Yeah, depressing thinking about having a scratchy throat so close to the holiday.

So today on the bus, instead of reading (because I have no more nutrition to read so I can read whatever I want!!), I imagined my white blood cells killing off my scratchy throat virus bodies.  The entire ride home.  Well, until I fell asleep (fighting viruses is tough work!).  I just kept imagining and imagining in hopes of feeling better.

I do feel a tad  bit better but I can still feel the congestion and achy-ness of a cold coming on, so I think I have some more imaginary fighting to do before I go to bed.

Oh, boogers - I will be so mad if I get sick and have to drive all the way up to Vermont with a cold.  Completely unfun.

Here are some spots from the last few days - I wasn't too busy to not appreciate a few spots of happiness:

* finding a restaurant close by that sells yummy baleadas and sopa de mondongo
* finding a nice-looking sweater that I can wear for Christmas and New Year's and not look like a dork
* spending time with my husband
* getting almost all my presents wrapped
* using the beautiful gift tags I bought from Scrapin Sara's Etsy shop
* church and brunch with our golf/church friends
* making yummy peppermint whoopie pies for a work potluck (they didn't look this good though...)

* the work potluck
* cookies my bus-friend Jackie gave me (they really helped my imaginary fighting)
* Christmas music (of course!)
* post office box filled with Christmas cards for hubby and me!
* getting a belly full of excitement every time I think about going to Vermont
* and many, many more things

Sorry I've been missing in blog - the holidays do that to you!

Merry Christmas Week!!
