Surfacing

Whew! I know I BWO (blog without obligation - see logo bottom left) but this time it's because I've been down with whatever creeping crud Joshua had last week. Yuck. It started on Sunday evening. I totally missed Rosh Hashanah and hearing T sing. Instead I slept, sniffled and coughed and made my own 'music'. heh... or not. Tuesday? Double yuck.

As of yesterday afternoon I seem to be coming out of it a bit. I spent a few hours at Copper Pom's house spackling walls, had hot soup for lunch and came home to rest. Big day, huh?

Today is my first real day of work this week... and a 10 hour work day! My poor chapped, pink nose and I will be spending a few hours this evening with a colleague working a room at a networking event. This event happens to be a five course meal and wine tasting at an 8,000 sq. ft. mansion/museum on the lake. I know, rough life, eh?

Besides trying to hide my nose under makeup, the worst part of tonight is that I don't DARE have wine with a cold like this. Not only would it stuff my nose up even more, I have a feeling it would hit me like a ton of bricks. Some networking event. I can see it now... "Hey, weren't you the gal on the floor?" or weeks later, "Didn't recognize you without the lamp shade on your head." Oy Vey.

Wish me luck.
