i like eating noooodles

the worst part about sleeping in, is the stale coffee.
we all drink it around here (in mass quantities) so whoever gets up first thing in the morning makes a full 12-cupper pot. by the time i get up lately, there’s nothing but the stale, muddy leftovers.  the problem is, there’s enough left that i SHOULD have it because….i don’t want to waste it. and maybe a touch of….i’m lazy and would rather just go right to drinking?

i feel kind of…queasy.
it’s post nasal drip on an empty stomach. BOO.
i was getting over the nasty sickness, and woke up with a sore throat yesterday.
however, after checking off all my symptoms and the fact that i feel utterly fine in every other regard, it’s allergies. oh joy. do you know that…my allergies were 100% non-existent in charlotte, despite the year-round pollen and other things that had people sniffling and sneezing constantly? so that means my allergies are triggered….here. of course they are. in the dead of winter, no less. 

i personally think it’s the plethora of animals.
specifically dogs. since i never so much as sniffled after swiping my face over odin’s fur.
mix that in with rarely leaving the house…..

so i took a claritin about an hour ago.
i already feel better. ugh. back to allergy meds that make me tired, i suppose.

i went to bingo last night in an attempt to get out.
in addition to grandma & amanda, mal went too. she’s the only one of us that won….$30. 
you know i go probably, twice a month (sometimes more, sometimes less). 
i’ve won $10 about 3 months ago. what is that garbage??
my grandma & amanda win amounts in the $100’s…amanda won $375 two weeks ago.
when am i gonna get a piece of that?? BOO!

i hear little man kicking up there, so i have to go make his breakfast.
i hope he feels better today. he was MISERABLE yesterday….had a fever ranging between 102-103 all day and motrin barely helped. it was the side-effects of last week’s shots catching up to him. his doctor told me the fever happens 1-2 weeks after with the ones he got so don’t be surprised…poor thing was so upset. but MAN did he sleep!! ALL day it seemed! i just hope he feels better today, i absolutely HATE seeing him so sad 🙁

oh ps! i got an email from provo craft the other day saying that "something sweet" was coming to CHA (this big craft convention going on that all the craft blogs are talking about!). i guess some insiders found out what it was because i got an email this morning….they are making a CAKE machine!!! i don’t know exactly  how it works, but it looks like it cuts out fondant into shapes and you collect the different cartridges for this, too. they are insane…seriously.
