Happy ... and Unhappy ...

On the "unhappy" front:

Ugh. I'm sick. I don't mean sick in a good way. I mean sick in a "my-sinuses-have-gone-nuts-and-liquified-my-brains", "using-up-twenty-eight-boxes-of-kleenex-a-day" kind of way. My kiddo has been stopped up and a bit out of sorts ever since the weather change blew through here a couple of nights ago. Lovely Alberta Clipper, bringing howling winds that tossed around our porch furniture. Not to mention it was probably carrying along all sorts of things to which I'm allergic -- a good bet since I'm allergic to pretty much everything that grows or walks around on four legs. Anyhow, I wondered if, maybe, it was some sort of allergy thing for her, as Benadryl seemed to help her a lot. Plus, she still plays and eats normally, which led me to believe it was nothing more serious.

Now, though, I wonder. Last night, I started feeling bad. The energy-draining body aches, the sinuses from hell + headache, yadda, yadda, yadda. So, I'm wondering if she might have caught a little cold and passed it along to me. Time will tell, I suppose. I took some Claritin this morning, and my sinuses feel better. So, maybe it is just allergies. If so, it's a pretty bad attack.

So, yeah. Bleh on my sinuses and a pox on all weather changes. I swear, any time the barometric pressure changes even a bit, my stupid sinuses go haywire. Makes me just want to have the darn things removed and be done with it. Which, I'm not even sure if they can do, but ...

Anyhow ...

On the happy, happy, joy, joy front:

I got a little package yesterday, so I was able to make another small update to my cel gallery. (Yeah, you knew it had to be cel-related if it makes me happy, right? ^.~ Since Tex died, that's about the only thing that does get a happy reaction from me. :\) I swear, I keep on saying I need to hold off on updating when I know I have a few things on the way. That's the case now, and I know I should wait and add them all at one time, to make for a more "impressive" update. But, I just feel all happy and fangirly when things arrive, so I can't resist grabbing the time needed to scan and upload. Plus, it takes a lot less time to add a couple of things than it does to make a big update.

These are things I had lusted after for a while, so I'm super excited over getting them. I can't believe I was able to, really, considering how long I dithered around, debating on if I should or not. (Sometimes, I have a problem with indecisiveness. *nervous laugh*)

Also on the happy front: SNOW!

It snowed for most of the day yesterday. I love that. I love standing at the window and watching it fall. Especially when it swirls around in the wind, like yesterday. I'm hoping to get my kiddo out to play in it after while, provided she doesn't feel too bad and is a bit less stopped up. This snowfall is a big treat, to me, since I feel like we didn't have much winter this year. So, it was nice to get a bit of snowfall this late in the season. Keep in mind that I stay at home with my kiddo. I would probably feel much less charitable toward the snow if I had to commute to work in it.

Snow aside, it's a really gorgeous day today. Sunny and bright. Kind of a nice change from the gray days we've had recently.

Hmmm ... I know there was more I wanted to say, but it's all gone now. Yes, it's true. A mind is a terrible thing to waste. ^.~
