Thanksgiving!

The day was one of quiet anticipation and finally joy and then exhaustion.
But to be honest aren’t all holidays pretty much the same?
We all hope for and look so much forward to the day of all the year that we hope something… special will happen, but in reality the waiting and desire does not always match up to our thought processes which are usually a wee bit beyond reality and more so than the actuality?

As you might have noticed from my ghastly words of gibberish, ok over explanation then, I am beyond gloriously tired and very nearly too close to the walking dead of fatigue; how awful a statement is that?
Sorry but weariness in this severe strength does have that affect on me.

Moving on though…
To be most honest, the day was extremely tentative only in the respect that my ills had been so nasty the night before that they almost had me running to the hospital for relief.
And so in turn they did not allow me to sleep and no refreshing respite was forthcoming until I took somewhat drastic measures…
By calling one of those hospital nurse people that answer medical questions all night long, and once I informed her of what exactly was going on with my throat/glands swelling and or abscess tooth or medication causing possibly the problem she insisted that I go to the hospital before I had trouble breathing.
I asked her if ‘Benedryl’, the antihistamine might help if it was an allergic reaction… and she said… that could work!
But if it didn’t I should get to the hospital immediately!
And so I did take two the adult dosage and in within about an hour or so I was pleasantly in dreamland.

So now you all understand why the exhaustion and I tried my hardest not to say anything to number one son with his gal here, but Hubby blew my cover… and the cat was out of the bag before I could stop it and so I had no choice but to ‘fess-up’ (An old slang term for confessing) like they used to say in those really bad ‘B’ movies of the 1940’s.
And my not eating certain food was explained away appropriately!
I even made a joke about if this continues this could be just my way of shedding some of my nasty LBS!
And so all was ‘okey dokey’ (Folksy OKAY) and we continued to chat and number one even helped Hubby get us online at our new address and supersonic transport service called DSL!
And now we are like all you regular folk; no longer the poor relation on dial up!
WE CAN COMMUNICATE WITH THE BEST OF THEM, YEA!

A true Thanksgiving story, NAH!

Onward and upward with silliness to continue for ever I do hope!

I would love to wish all who celebrated today a very happy THANKSGIVING and to ask you all to count those blessings with those loved ones and share those overages with the others and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, OK?
