I hope you are all having a better Christmas season.
I started to get sick on Thursday, then stared get bronchial on Friday night/Saturday morning. Suffered though most of my hockey games on Sunday, but felt feverish Sunday night and got out of my last 5 games so I could go home.
Popped a 103.2 temp yesterday, went to urgent care, got a Z-pak and codeine cough syrup...feeling a little better today, but still coughing because I'm only supposed to take it for sleeping. And the coughs aren't very productive, just frustrating when they happen.
Which meant I missed dinner at my sister's yesterday and wasn't able to buy gifts for family as payday was the 24th.
So, my Golden Oak Chapter, OES (Order of the Eastern Star) is doing a "speed fundraiser" -- and we are selling See's Chocolates. Specifically, we are selling the small gift boxes in the Holiday wrap or a Jolly Snowman box for the retail price of $6.80 -- and these are the perfect size for the Office Staff, Gift Exchange (add a Starbucks gift card to bump the value), stocking stuffers for the adults in your family.
I can take orders via PayPal, drive to you if you are in the Bay Area, or you can pop a check into the mail. Our order goes in on Monday the 10th so I need to get your orders now. I will have them in hand no later than Thursday the 13th and can deliver them Friday/Saturday/Sunday.
I'm biting the bullet...as I've got to work on a better mental attitude without the help of Rx or a Dr (thanks to no insurance for over 2 years). So, I'm issuing a personal challenge that for every crankypants thing I post, I have to post two good things. No, they don't have to be related. Yes, they have to be in separate posts and tagged so I can see how many good things I have in 2013. Yes, I can repeat an item (like glad to have a job) as it does reinforce that I need to be glad for things (or people) that are in my life.
If you also like the idea, go for it!
Oh, and just a reminder: these posts will be Friends-Locked, so if you weren't added back after the "housekeeping" earlier this year...please nudge me to do so.
Just a quick public note with comments screened...
I'm going to be adding people back to my Flist...but only those who really want to be a part of my life. That means you aren't here to snoop, spy, or share stuff beyond these digital walls. Yeah, yeah...I know anything posted is fair game as copy/paste/post can and does happen. But SRSLY...when I hear that I'm the one who dumped someone when no dumping actually occurred, makes me wonder who has my best interests at heart vs. other people's desire to know the dirt on me.
