I've spent this past week stoically attempting to NOT get sick. Because, really, I do not have the time or patience for this flu stuff. I had felt the beginnings of a scratchy throat and sniffles and immediately began a regimented dosing of Zicam, herbal tea, Emergen-C and chicken soup. But yesterday, I finally succumbed to the fact that I have a sinus infection and no amount of homeopathic remedies were gonna fix it. So I headed to Walgreens, plopped my request card down on the pharmacy counter, and turned over my firstborn child for the right to purchase Sudafed. And within 30 minutes of taking the pill, I no longer had the desire to shove a pencil into my eye socket to relieve the throbbing pressure. Sometimes, drugs are a good thing.
Of course, in exchange for ridding me of my excruciating headache, the Sudafed left me with the feeling that my head was floating a few inches above my body, a disconnected sensation that proved to be less than conducive to performing normal mommy tasks. So I napped. A lot. And possibly reacquainted myself with the daytime programming on MTV. Shhhhhh! Let's keep that between us, ok?
Today I'm feeling much more normal and wanted to post my layouts from the November Jenni Bowlin kit. It's chock-full of the newest releases from the JBS black & red line and will work fantastically with all those holiday photos you are going to be taking in upcoming months. Here's what I did with the kit:
And with that, I'm signing off. I need to run over to Walgreen's and try to bargain with that pharmacist about the whole first-born agreement. I've got too many scrapbook pages with that kid on them to give him up now. :)
Happy Friday!
