It's Christmas Eve! Weee! Now if I could get over this dang cold it would be lovely. Yesterday I had such a good day compared to the last week and I really thought I was on the road to recovery. Apparently I was quite mistaken! I woke up at 4:30am this morning, wide awake I must add, with a nose that would not stop running. It still hasn't. Eyes constantly watering too. I'm supposed to bake bread and make corn souffle today as well as Christmas dinner tomorrow. How am I supposed to do that like this? I will be spending all my time in the bathroom washing my hands!
On the plus side, Faythe has finally stopped "spilling" (as she likes to call it). While she still has stuffy nose, she is at least keeping her food down. I was talking to my friend, Tara, last night and she was telling me about how her daughter throws up when she has a cold. That made me feel a lot better! Unfortunately all that phlegm and grossness is going straight to her tummy (and hitting her gag reflex). Makes a lot more sense to me now.
We are going to my Mother-n-law's for dinner tonight and then I'm making dinner tomorrow for Alan's other Mom & Sister & Niece. I'm going to be making the turkey and whole works so hopefully I can get this cold to calm down by then!
Normally when I'm in Illinois we go to my Step-Mom and Dad's for Christmas Eve and then go to my Mom & Step-Dad's on Christmas Day. It sure is strange at times to not be there as those traditions were such an intregal part of my Christmas every year. It is nice to be here with my own little family tho.
Well I better run, have lots and lots to do today!
Merry Christmas!
