What a Waste!

I'm under the weather and it's

such beautiful weather we're having too!

Mid-40's to mid-50's in the morning, 

highs in the low 80's during the day.

Perfect weather for anything you want 

(or need) to do outside.

But there is a bug going around at the work place 

and I think it may have found me today.

I was fine until about mid-morning.

I sneezed once and haven't been the same since.

My head feels like it's stuffed with cotton 

and my eyes are scratchy and watering.

I sneezed so loud when I was

walking the chickens down the hill to the coop

that they scattered and ran back up the hill.  Ugh!

Yeoldfurt was counting on me 

to haul some more loads of wood and brush 

out to the burn pile today.

But I think it's going to be all I can do 

to get the horses fed and supper cooked 

before he gets home.

 He's getting pork cutlets, brown gravy, 

some herb stuffing and green beans for supper.

It's Chicken Noodle Soup and saltines for me,

with a NyQuil chaser!

I don't officially have 'allergies' that I know of, 

but I do appreciate a good antihistamine. 

I think if I self-medicate and get to bed early tonight, 

I might just sleep this thing off by tomorrow.

That's the plan anyway.
