Droopy Saturday

Thank goodness we stopped at Rite Aid yesterday for more medicine!  John was insistent yesterday that we needed to go to the drugstore to get some "good medicine".  When he showed me what he'd bought, I gave him a look and said, "That's the exact same stuff we have at home that I've been giving you the past two days.  We've still got loads of it!" 

But now it looks like we're going to need it - I've come down with the same cold.  Ugh.  I got home from work and we spent the evening in bed with the laptop watching Eureka on Netflix.  John had never seen the show before, and I had only watched the first 3-4 episodes back when it came out originally years ago.  It's pretty good.  If you looking for a relatively light-hearted show with a whole bunch of psuedo-science, check it out. 

One of the reasons we like to shop at Rite Aid is because they sell dog toys for $1 apiece.  Considering Honey rips up all her toys moments after receiving them, we're not going to spend much on toys for her.  But $1 to watch her face light up at the sight of the new toy, and then play joyously with it for a few minutes?  Totally worth it.

Hopefully John feels well enough to get some schoolwork done today.  He's got quite a lot due on Monday, and because he's been sick hasn't worked on anything since Wednesday.  Me?  I'm going to spend most of the day in bed, alternating between doing laundry and resting and taking care of Honey.   

My car Really needs some cup-holders

John is home in bed, sick with a cold.  He doesn't get sick often, but when he does, he completely shuts down.  Since attendance in required in all his classes, he got up and went to class this morning.

We carpool - him to class and me to work.  For one thing it saves money on gas and parking!  Today he was planning on staying on campus all day, and then leaving when I got off work this evening.  Instead, he showed up at my office at 11 am asking if I could take an early lunch to drive him home.

I took him home, with a brief stopover at Rite Aid to get him some medicine.  He went to get comfortable while I made him some soup and set up the laptop by the bed in case he wanted to watch anything.  When I left he was just tucking into some soup ... hopefully he can rest and feel better soon!

Since my hour was quickly disappearing, I stopped at Chick-fil-A to get some lunch for myself, along with a Coke.  Which then tipped and poured its entire contents all over the front seat as soon as I turned out of the parking lot. 

At least I have the weekend to scrub the car clean!

To end on a happier note ... the house sold!  The closing went very well, and that is one thing off of our plates!  Yay!
