This and That

Here it is Thursday, Where did the week go? I am sitting here wondering where I have been. Oh yeah, sick with a cold.
I can barely talk, I cough and cough but no temps so it is just a cold. An old fashioned cold.
Coughing, Headache, coughing, body aches, coughing, loss of voice or almost total loss by evening and did I say coughing?
I feel not horrible though, just do not want to open my mouth for fear of passing something on.

I did learn something I need to pass on.
DO NOT buy the oversizes, more grain, Rice Krispies. YUCK!!! and I say that as strongly as possible.
They get gummy or something. Not sure what, but me, a lover of cereal can barely choke them down.
In fact I am giving an unopened box to the shelter.

I finally made it to the quilt shop only to find the actual quilters gone for the day, I have not made it back yet. (I mean back to the shop I did make it home).
I really need opinions on finishing this quilt. So far it is pretty but it needs something, something I cant put my finger on.

Got my hair permed. I look like my Mom, it is short and curly. LOL
As soon as Scott finished he said, "So what do you think?" I said,
"Looks like my Mom is sitting here."
My hair was cut in July, not since, It was such a horrible cut, and so short and possibly thinned. It is just growing slowly. It was pretty short to perm. But I can see the style I am going for in a few weeks, at least by Christmas.
(Quite unlike the Brillo pad I see in the mirror now.)

I have only been up about half and hour and forced my self awake. I put my flannel sheets on my bed and I hate leaving them on these cold mornings. It is in the 40s outside. Sun is shining but the temp is pretty low.
I did force myself outside yesterday and picked a bouquet of lavender and two of roses.
I have one bouquet of Black Roses. They are so unique. A good Halloween decoration.
Not that I decorate for that but I do have my bowl of candy.
Now keep in mind we live on a country road, no one will come here but someone I love insist we have candy for kids, Just in case.
We know who is going to eat all that candy, All 180 pieces of it. It is the little single bite candy bars. snickers, Kit Kat, Butterfinger, Almond Joy, M & Ms, (plain and peanut) Reeses and Krunch bars.
Sounds like a good thing to do, but I can't eat them I really want some though. Maybe just a few. I want the almond joys and snickers. I have to watch my blood sugar. It is pretty much under control, I want it to stay that way.
So that is my life, however dull.
I love it.
