I'm exhausted. I allowed myself to sleep an additional twenty minutes this morning and didn't hit the treadmill (bad girl) but I really needed that little bit of additional sleep. I'm really looking forward to tonight - for the first time in two months I will be able to sleep in on Sunday morning. This is the ultimate luxury! So I'm writing a celebration to sleep today because, quite honestly, that candle I hold that burns from both ends does singe my hand now and again.

I'm so tired I almost fell asleep over my keyboard while doing the final edit on my AinA story last night. I'm almost finished with this edit, then I'll consider it a complete story and my goal is sending it off by the end of the week. I need to move on from this magnum opus and write something shorter - LOL. I also have the MPTT Anniversary Story 90% complete. I wanted to have that posted yesterday, but I'm looking at another one or two days before it will be ready. I'm trying, but working without the Chickie is difficult. It means that I am the front-room person, the one who interacts with each customer walking through the door, and product still needs to be processed - received, packed and tagged.

So, Tuesday night we have our appointment with our new accountant for our personal tax return. Our previous accountant we had for 20 years, there was a comfort level there that we really liked. Now it's rather like stepping off a short cliff. It won't be life-threatening, but it is going to be more uncomfortable because we won't automatically be talked through the details. I haven't gathered anything together. Anything. I am planning to work on things tomorrow, and I know it won't be enough time. Bad me. But I'm just not in the mood and when I'm not in the mood to do something I can push things to the background extremely well - shove things under the bed in essence.

So the cough syrup is finished, the last antibiotic capsule has been taken, and although I still have 70 doses of inhalent left, there were a lot of doses all around for that and I'm breathing fine.

I finally was able to get some sleep last night. I went to bed (the recliner) at 9pm, causing my DH to make a hunt all over the house to find me later because he forgot I said I would use the recliner - duh!

 So, my nose is no longer running like a faucet, more like a slow drip.  But my cough won't leave, so I suppose I get to have a soft cough for a while.

We finally got the second quotation from an electrician for my Father-by-Marriage's home.  There is a $3000 differential between the two quotations, and we aren't seeing enough in the higher quote to justify the additional $3000, so even though we know additional work will probably have to be done on the lower quote and that it will come in higher than the actual number currently listed.  But either way, the work will be done soon and competently, and we will have one less thing to worry about with my FbM.  At this point, I'll take anything I can get to lower the stress level. 

Thanks to all of you who commiserated with me when I was feeling so horrid yesterday.  I was asleep by 8:30 pm last night and feel much better today.  I'll still dress warmly today, I am a believer in sweating illness out and I get cold too easily when I'm not feeling well.  My on-line friends mean a great deal to me and your wishes helped me a lot.
