The Flu Kind of Sucks. . .

Thank goodness, I'm feeling almost like a human today.  I've had the flu since Tuesday, and I have been in bed sleeping almost all of that time.  Today I actually got up and accomplished a few things.  Just a very few, but at least something!

While I've been sick, I've had some weird dreams, probably due to antibiotics, but they have been weird.  Like crazy chickens running around.  Weird.

Today Kaleigh is babysitting so I've been able to do a little laundry and clean and sort out my sewing area in peace.  K. and I are soon to make some changes around here as far as responsibilities go.  She doesn't know this yet, I'm still working out some details, but I'm tired of doing most of the work around here while she and her boyfriend sit on the couch, watching Psych, or whatever the heck they watch.  As teenagers go, K. is very low-maintenance, but it's time for some growing up.  She's not going to love it.  I have to do my job as a parent, which is to teach her to be independent, and I don't think I've done that recently. 

My sewing area looks awesome.  I can't wait until I can get in there and start sewing something.  Maybe tonight, if I don't run out of steam.

Tonight for dinner I'm going to roast some chicken, and make rice and peas.  A real dinner.  Since I've been sick, I haven't cooked a thing, and I'm looking forward to real food.  I love soup and all, but I'm over it.  Maybe I'll go crazy and make gravy.  Yummy.
