in the midst of winter...

At Trader Joe's on Monday, they were selling daffodil stems. Stems, not bloomed or anything. I put them in water and today this is where they are. I would love to capture them on film each day, but at least I did today.

I am home, sick. Yes. You read that right. The fortunate thing is that the fever (low grade, 99 F) has seem to have gotten me out of my "funk." I find this--if I get a cold, my body decides that it can't take being depressed AND being sick, so it tells the mind to shape up. Not the best way to cure depression, but I'll take it. I'm home. I need to find out where my orange juice is. I think it might still be in the foyer.

Got the car warshed, and so now my car has a "Got milkweed?" bumper sticker, from my mom. (Milkweed is the life source for monarch butterflies in the mating and pupa stages.)

Okay, that's enough for now. ISO orange juice, then maybe a movie, and I might fall asleep.

I don't think it's a cold b/c it didn't respond to the Zicam daytime liquid I took at 9am and at 1pm.

TTFN...

Dude! We have had more than enough sickness at our house for the past ... um, MONTH ... so I feel your pain! Get well soon, yo! Rest and fluids; rinse, repeat.

Badger,

Thanks, hon. I'm working it. I don't have a fever anymore, so that's a blessing--I can't believe how long you had yours.

xo,

I bought some daffodils yesterday at the grocery store. I couldn't help myself! Mine are planted so hopefully they will last.
