I was only gone 40 minutes!

Today is day 12 since that awful bug came to visit.   I think all the medicine has finally worked.


 
I woke up hungry so I guess that means I am feeling better!   I planned to make a quick morning trip for some food, petrol, and to return library books that are due Tuesday.  All 3 places are close to each other- first food, then petrol, then Library, a nice easy loop.  
 
I only spent $40 at the supermarket, just a quick shop to grab a few things to get by.
Petrol was high, so I didn't take time fill up either.
Being Sunday, of course the Library was closed, so that was a quick drop and go.
 
I know this girl can be naughty, so this time I took extra time to make her a treat (she has a bone that I can hide peanut butter deep inside which is meant to entertain her for ages),   clear the benches, close the bedroom doors, and cross my fingers!
 
I was only gone 40 minutes and this is what I came home to.
 
 
 
 
 
Ewww.....lots of tissues I didn't want to see again... blechhh.
 
 
See just in front of the sofa? That is my medication box on the floor.  I took my meds just before I left, so I know for sure that was on the bench in the kitchen!
 
 
Too guilty to even make eye contact.   Butter wrapper in foreground.
I found chewed up plastic bags in her bed too.   Naughty girl. Very naughty girl.
Not to worry. I still love her but I'm just not speaking to her at the moment LOL.
 
Thanks for the get well messages, they worked!

Gratitude

Yesterday when I checked the mail, instead of a yucky bill,  I found a nice squishy parcel instead.
I was a recent winner over at dear Cheryll's blog.  She said her hubby chose me LOL.

 
My goodies were wrapped in pretty paper and signed with hugs from Cheryll.
 
 
Cheryll  sent me two fat quarters. They are in lovely neutral light browns, making them easy to add to a new project.  Thank you so much Cheryll for sending me some nice *fun* mail.  Smiling here.
 
Today, dear De and her nice hubby came over.  Nice hubby fixed a door for me that wouldn't close due to the lovely salty air I live in.  This morning it was 14C in my house, so I can tell you I will be very happy to be able to close that door tonight!  I think the new girl was cold last night too LOL.
 
 
Here is the new girl just awhile ago.  She wakes me up at first light by nudging me in the head until I get up and feed her.  Of course, I am awake and then she sleeps most of the day.  She is all worn out from the visitors who just left  and now she is sound asleep. Me,......wide awake.
 
My thoughts are in North Texas the past two days.  The recent tornadoes were only a 1/2 hour drive from my old house and where the rest of my family still lives.  This is the closest to home they have ever been and I am sad for those who were lost. I used to love to go to Granbury for lunch and to explore the antique shops.  So sad to see the damage there.   I guess we just never know who will be next...
