You know that scene from You've Got Mail where Meg Ryan's character has just lost her job, and then she gets sick? I love the part where she gets a knock on the door, so she has to scramble around and get rid of all the tissues she has lying around the house.
So I am working through my second cold in the last month (not November, but the last 30 days). Ugh! The first one lasted like 3 weeks, starting right as I was finishing up my last job. Then this last one started on Sunday. This one's more of just a sniffle that should go away in a couple more days.
But there are so many more things I'd rather be doing than laying around sick! I guess the big question is whether I'd actually be doing them if I wasn't, and the answer is, probably not.
Maybe that's what I'll learn from it this time around: to appreciate the ability I have to do other things besides sitting around.

Yesterday, I got dressed in possibly the most frumpy outfit ever, and this is because most of my cold weather clothes are worn out or frumpy. So even though I was sick, I decided to go out clothes shopping. I didn't find anything I liked (it's hard for me to like anything when I'm sick), but I did buy a sheet. I plan on making a dress out of it. If it turns out well, I'll post a picture of it on here. If not, you may never see it, as most of you didn't see the last dress I tried to make.
