The Bare Minimum

I'm fighting a head cold right now.  Not such a fun thing to do.  But when viruses invade the home and the life, the home and the life change.  Right now I am doing the bare minimum.  Like:  laying around, drinking plenty of fluids (including water, tea with honey, and yesterday: Coke Zero), blowing my nose like crazy (Puffs Plus with Lotion, my nose thanks you!), using lots of hand sanitizer, eating (I never stop wanting to eat regular meals--even when I'm sick.), sucking on vitamin C drops, brushing my teeth (because sucking on those drops leaves a nasty aftertaste in my mouth), showering (I think the hot steam helps.), and that's about it.  Everything else can wait.  And if it can't wait, my fabulous husband has taken care of it for me!  Thankfully, the girls are able to entertain themselves quite well.  They aren't suffering one bit.  I guess I might have to make lunch at some point, but that will be a very simple affair.  Oh, and while I'm laying around I can spend some time with my Bible and Jesus, too.  Now that's a bonus!
