So, this weekend was a mixed bag, so to speak. The Mrs. and the kids took off to the inlaws farm for the day. I had a few things to do on the "honey do" list. No big deal. Got that done in no time at all. I had been thinking ever since the wife said that they were going for the day that it would be a good opportunity to get girly since I haven`t for about a month or so(hunting and fighting a nasty spider bite). Wouldnt you know it, one thing lead to another and I find myself parked in my recliner and/or glued to the TV. Next thing you know, the fam comes home(always love that part:)) and I realize that I had missed my opportunity. Darn. Evening arrives and my exhausting day catches up with me and I fall asleep on the couch. 4 a.m. rolls around and I crawl into bed. 5:30 a.m. rolls around and wouldn`t ya know....sick as a dog and spend the morning as such. No church with the fam, can`t eat anything, ache, fever, nausea and then some. At one point I had come alive enough to read the Sunday paper. Other than that...bedridden.

Wasted weekend? It gets better.

This morning rolls around and I spend most of it in the bathroom. My wife says that my 6 year old daughter wants to have a friend come over to have a tea party. They do and dress to the nines. It was cute to watch them. I sure am glad that someone got to have fun here. I finally felt good enough to head to work albeit late. Wasted weekend and a bad day, maybe, maybe not, but a blown opportunity for sure.

Sorry about the weekend, I can relate when you get a small opening it hurts so much when it is wasted.

Wasted? No, those times when you get to spend with your kids and they happen to put a smile on your face are always the best; even better than x-sdressing. Hugs!

Don't take it so hard, Natalie. Sometimes this is the way I view my whole life. But then I start thinking about some of the good things I've done, and it's not all so bad. You'll have those days, you know.

Count your blessings. I'd give up my entire wardrobe (well, almost! LOL) to have a little girl who calls her friends over to have a tea party all dressed up to the nines. You're a wealthy man, my friend, sick or not.
