Oh for goodness sakes! Yes. Another cold, sickness, yuk has taken over my house. I was the first to fall down, then Mother started coughing and getting all congested, and now W is a nonstop running nose. I know when you are sick your body tries to force you to slow down so that you [...]

I was trying to think of a way to describe the kind of taffy-pulling-super-stretched-every-which-way my days are going lately. Then I looked over at my coffee.
