A.....Ahchoo!!

I am only a bird in a gilded cage...la, la...la......

Flu...yetch.....Flu....to nasty to give away....Flu.....You can have it, I don't want it..it's too much for me!!!!   down time...that's good;    hot toddies.....that is good.....aah soup, the elixir of life...and sweets make it all go down slow and easy.    

I did go out yesterday and walked the thrift store and found a tiny black vase to cheer me up....smile.    Had lunch out at the Bowling Alley where the food is always very good.  Surprisingly so.    There is nothing like a good hamburger to put a smile on your face and help chase the flu bugs away.   The outing did more good than harm,it was good to exercise as I walked the aisles and stretched the legs as well as the mind.  I didn't talk to anyone so didn't share any of my germs, they are all mine...yetch...and more yetch!!

So it is flu weather.  It is that time of year.   I would suggest when you go shopping this week you add some juices, some soups, and a bottle of "hard" stuff to your cart so you will be prepared if the flu bug decides to visit your home.    You might as well make yourself comfortable and enjoy your down time.    There is something about a very tiny stemmed glass filled with the amber color of cognac that makes being bitten by the flu bug a bit more palatable.  

Put your feet up, snuggle down and nap......take it from a pro...I am really getting the hang of this flu bug.  I'm off to feed a cold and starve a fever.     

Be good, be kind, be gentle and be selfish and do not share the flu bug.    Save all those hugs for when you feel like your 'old' self....just avoid the flu as long as you can....stay healthy and happy.  Hugs to all.
