I swear, we were just filling and re-filling prescription after prescription for strep throat... and then it was summer, and KAPOWIE!! We're at it again.

Ahhhh....laughing over here. :) (not at your sickness) Seriously though, do I HAVE to pet the pugs? Music is on, my dinner has FOUR colors tonight AND I'm resting/relaxing. But the PUGS? How about Ben's elephant, does that count? xo

Man, that makes me tired...off to rest and relax!
Get better soon, it is getting close to Christmas!!!!!
So sorry for your woes! That smoothie does look enticing though, it would make me feel amazing too..

Craving that smoothie in pink! That's about the only thing pink I"m interested in right now.
Amy Jo and her fear of PINK make me laugh!
Happy Healthy Thoughts to you!!!
