She’s alive…

The fact that I felt good enough to take my camera out of the bag is a good sign. Actually taking a shower will be next on my agenda.

Chicken noodle soup and Robitussin CF Max have given me a small glimmer of hope. I can breathe through my nose and I’m only coughing 40% of my awake hours, as compared to 95%.  Yes, those are very scientific measurements. 🙂

I miss my camera, my friends, my job… (Hey the camera is still new, I’m sure my friends will move back up the list soon).

I’ve watched enough CSI and Law and Order SVU to give me nightmares for the remainder of the year. I’ve drooled over foods I can’t eat or taste on the Food Network. I’ve cheered on this season’s Top Chef All-Stars. I’ve rocked some pretty scary bed head hair and I’ve used up all of my pajama bottoms and tops.

I’m just ready to be done with this stupid/miserable cold.

    I was meaning to ask you what kind of soup you like. That looks really good, even though I’m sure you are pretty much ready to eat something else!

    I am glad you are feeling a little better. I thought of you when I watched Top Chef All-Stars last night. 🙂

      I make a super simple chicken broth based soup. Cooking is the last thing I feel like doing, but I pretty much hate canned soups, Amy’s Organic being a small exception. I use Hormel instant chicken bouillon, chopped celery, carrots and noodles – just recently found Barilla cut spaghetti (I love the size), ground pepper, parsley and a pinch of crushed rosemary.

  1. I’m glad you’re starting to feel better and I hope you are back to normal soon!!

  2. So you’re where I got my cold from!
    Geez – nice sentence, Sybil!. GAH.
    I’ve heard that Zicam rocks, so I’m testing it. I hope to be able to breathe soon.
    Glad you’re feeling better!

    Glad to hear that you are feeling a wee bit better. Wish I could just snap my fingers or wiggle my nose and make you all better…..but time will do that, I hope.

    Love you honey………….keep warm and cozy………………Mommers

    Honey, I can sympathize and empathize. I am sick as a dog right now, but can’t take off work because of looming deadlines and I feel like poop. It sounds like this hit you pretty hard though – so I’m so relieved to hear you are feeling better. I haven’t seen you down for the count this long and I was worrried! I hope Higgy provided a good blanket for you – hope you are 100% soon.
