Things I've learned in the last 24 hours

1.  It is NOT a good idea to take non-drowsey Sudafed Sinus at 2 am (unless you want to be exhausted and unable to sleep the rest of the night).
2.  It is probably NOT a good idea to watch TV during this semi-foggy state and see an infomercial for a buy one get one free G2 Swivel Sweeper (we've worn one out and had been meaning to replace it).  Because you might go online with the intent of buying 2 and accidentally buy 4.  I'll save a couple for nice gifts I suppose.
3.  I'm not a great bookkeeper.  (This always becomes obvious when my husband prepares our taxes).  Fortunately my husband is a great tax accountant.  And...he understands my ineptitue in this area and explains things with a smile.
4.  My 12 year old son makes great pancakes for dinner when all I want to do it curl up and hide.  (And just so you don't think my 15 and 10 year old daughters were slacking.....I had them on laundry duty.)

I just have a sinusy cold thing (or maybe the flu since I don't think you get fever and chills with a cold).  Nothing major.  But unforunately I didn't kick into high alert don't spread the germs mode.   I thought it was just my allergies....until the fever and chills...and until I shared it :(
