Sick

C brought home a cold last weekend and liberal applications of Clorox wipes and occasionally sleeping on the sofa to avoid being breathed on did not work. I'm sick. Sore throat for now. he brings home several colds a year from work. I usually avoid them, but not this time.

I got the paperwork from our agency that I was waiting on and spent last Friday night filling out the same information repeatedly...name, address, passport number, name, address, passport number, name, address....

The no abbreviations thing messed me up a few times...when was the last time you wrote out the state name when writing your address? Or the word "department" instead of "dept." Luckily I only had to redo two forms (had to make copies and then fill out...copies of the filled out forms are not allowed...all must be original documents). My hand was cramping up by the end, though.

I still need to call my agency to go through the list...I'm hoping my throat feels better by week end. C says this cold moved quickly for his coworkers...it's stuck in his chest right now, which isn't unusual...he is prone to lung infections whenever he gets sick.

The DFW Knit Out and Crochet last weekend was LOTS of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I missed Knit Night last night due to my throat and not wanting to spread this around. It was the last night for one of our knitters, who is moving to OK. I'm sad I missed her last night.

I've been knitting steadily, but most of what I have been working on are gifts, so no photos just yet....

I won my fantasy match-up last weekend, but only because my opponent, Denny, played Carson Palmer and 30 minutes before gametime, Palmer was benched due to injury and Denny didn't know it. Had he replaced Palmer in his line-up with Warner, his back-up QB, I would have lost. Too bad, so sad. I'll take a gift any day. I am ranked ninth out of ten in the league right now. lots of us have the same record and I am ninth based on points, which tie-breaks the records. I have not been scoring much this season. I hope things improve. C is doing really well, but with Westbrook and Boldin out with injuries, and Peyton struggling to stay upright behind his injured O-line, C's kinda screwed for a few weeks...
