The cold has got me down.

I am sick. It is the annoying sickness where your ears are plugged up, your nose is stuffy and you have a hideous cough that makes you feel like 500 bricks are sitting on your chest. Good times.

I have been in bed for 2 days because this sickness has sucked all the life out of me. It isn’t a dayquill friendly sickness. No. it just won’t go away.

So, I figured, this is a great time to do a ton of homework and get it out of the way early. But, alas, I seem to read the same paragraph over and over and none of it processes. So, I blog.

Things are well. I mean, things aren’t horrible. But, I am getting really tired of job searches and working on my resume. It is a tedious path and it seems to be going nowhere. BUT, carrie is faithful in believing that there is a magic job waiting for me out there, and so, I pause and relax until she gets here for a visit on the 12th. Then, she will join the job search and resume work and help me to release my inner rock star. It’s easier to be a rock star when you have a screaming fan. And Carrie is a loyal die hard fan.

Wesley is incredible. He is just on the cusp of giving lectures (in full sentences) on nuclear physics and playing the violin. Smart cookie, that boy. He has been carrying around this miniature violin and bow for the last two days saying, “Biolin, momma! and resin bow!” Me thinks I have a violinist on me hands. Or a football player, a pianist, a painter, or a comedian, or a stunt man, or a lawyer. Maybe a doctor. He is very good at telling me to “Beel better, mommy!”

We are having the strangest winter here. It really hasn’t been that cold. Well, I think it was freezing around the time I got back from Texas, but I can’t decide if that is because I came from a 70 degree November where I wore flip flops and tee’s the whole time to immediately needing a winter coat and gloves. Maybe i just wasn’t  acclimated. Seems Seattle got the snow we usually receive, while us Missourians have had a fairly consistent 40-60 degree weather report.

Ok, that’s all. I’m going to attempt that paragraph again and see what happens.
