1. Oh you lucky....
I'm counting the days till summer. No vacations for the Grumpy's!!!

Me, I have to fake it. I take a hot, hot shower and then use suntan oil instead of lotion. It works and puts me in a better, more sunny frame of mind.

:hi:

2. Good morning Matcom!!
It's just cold here in St Louis. Well, cold by St Louis standards. I think it's 29 or so with some wind.

'Tis a cold wait at the bus stop this morning!

Chisle out!

8. Survived an ice storm in 1998
6 days without power and a grumpy ex. They're fun if the power doesn't go out here in the South. Everything closes.

11. I hope I didn't get you sick at Ruby's!
Sorry I missed y'all on Saturday. I took your advice and went back to bed. I slept like a rock. :-)

I feel better, but not 100% yet. :grr:

13. Probably not your fault
I've been fighting something off for weeks and I wasn't doing too bad until late Saturday night. Yesterday was wretched and today isn't starting out too good either.

I just called in and I'm gonna take my advice too and go back to bed for a while.

15. I've got my mom hat on...
be careful with that fever. If you can't bring it down with aspirin, call the doc. Drink lots of fluids too.
