Sniffling Thankfuls

Yup that's right. I caught the plague. Whatever Matt, my office and the entire Valley of the Sun have got, they passed on to me. I'm in the early stages and I'm doing everything I can to ward off the evil, so we'll see how it goes. If I'm sick for Thanksgiving I'm going to be PISSED.

That complaint out of the way, I am thankful for stuff today:

1. Advil Cold & Sinus Non-Drowsy. You saved my bacon you beautiful little orangish-red pill, you.

2. Comfort Food. I know I'm supposed to be eating well but while feeling under the weather there is nothing like the food you feel comfort in eating to make you feel a little better. I have a crock pot full of vegetable beef stew simmering at home and I can't wait to get there, make some biscuits, curl up in a blanket on the couch and indulge.

3. The thought of seeing my Grandma in a week. Shirley is one of my life's biggest blessings and I can't WAIT to see her next week, do some shopping, eat her fabulous food and just hang out with my Grandma and bestest buddy for life.

4. My sweet husband. He has been SO sick for almost a week and SO frustrating to me because he won't just TAKE IT EASY. And while that's frustrating to someone who knows just how sick he is, honestly, I'm grateful for that part of him. He works so hard to provide for us and give us a great life. He has never done a selfish thing as long as I've known him and this morning he apologized for making me sick and asked if I needed anything. He is an amazing man and I can't believe he settled for me.

5. The Neiman Marcus Christmas Book. Even though I can't afford even the staples that hold that thing together, it makes me happy just looking at the pretty green, butterfly embossed cover and drool over the designer shoes.

Can't even afford the staples? Hahaha, you're funny even when you're sick! Sorry you don't feel well - take some of your own advice and take it easy! Love you!

Awwww, poor sickly Kate! I hope you both get all well, FAST! I hope you don't get as sick as Matt's been! (And I love the title of this post. hahahaha. You're a trooper for still trying to find things to be thankful for!)
