This week so far - by the numbers.

Items completed from my To Do list: 10

Items not completed left on the list: about 1000

Hours in the car tomorrow (min.): 5

Boxes of tissues killed off in my house this week: 8.5

Hours of actual sleep (approx. total since Sunday): 20

Hours of tossing and turning and coughing and hacking: 200,000

Percentage of exaggeration in the last item: Not as much as you'd think.

Hours spent shopping during a massive downpour today: 3

Hours spent staring blankly at Christmas cards in the store, trying to focus enough to pick one out: .75

Are you feeling better yet? Sorry I haven't read sooner - on vacation. Drove nearer to you for the holidays - drove to Dallas/Ft. Worth area. About 22 hours.

Don't hurt your hubby too much; if he is in a body cast he won't be able to nurse you back to health.

am very entertained to find someone else who loves elipses and run on sentances as much as i do.
am thankful for it too.
