I know where rainbows end up

Just imagine if there really was a lot full of used rainbows. LOL Wouldn’t that be cool!

This week I’ve been spending my days trying to update my sites. Yes I’m still working on getting a few sites upgraded to WP 2.33 and then once that’s done I guess I’ll do it all over again for WP 2.5! Some of my sites have really old themes so I’m replacing the theme and widgetizing those sites. It’s slow and tedious work. Sometimes I think I’d rather be looking for Branson real estate or a great holiday deal than staring at my computer and tinkering with code!

Oh and I still have the flu or some kind of bug or maybe the flu that I had earlier this week bothered my Crohns … something’s still going on. I just feel yucky and feverish. Hopefully I’ll be back to as normal as I get soon!





Glad I wasn’t on that bus!

Tell me I’m wrong and that’s not a double decker bus squished under that bridge? I certainly hope that there weren’t any passengers in the upper level when the bus crashed! Can you imagine the kind of injuries!

I’d say that the driver had better start sending out cover letters as I’m sure he or she is out of a job! I wouldn’t want that accident on my record!

I hope that everyone had a great April Fools day. Did you play any good pranks on anyone? What did you do?

What do you get a kid that has everything?

I just remembered that it’s my nephews birthday next week. I hope that I’m feeling well enough to go shopping tomorrow.

Our nephews in Chicago so I’ve got to get something fast and then send a package off to him.

What do you get for a hockey loving 15 year old boy? Yeah, something hockey would be obvious, but he plays hockey and trains year round (he’s the one that comes to Ontario for hockey camps in the summer) so I don’t think he needs anything in that area.

I was think of maybe getting him some cool boardshorts since they fit his style and maybe a video game. Does that sound like a good gift?

If you have any ideas let me know as I’ve got to get something by tomorrow!

Knocked out by the flu bug

by

I was just saying in another post on my other blog that I spent the entire day in bed! I didn’t get up until around 9 pm! Of course now I’ll probably end up being up all night. Thank you flu bug you really know how to ruin a day.

Well I guess my body must have needed the rest. I do feel a bit better.

I guess there’s worse things that I could have been doing with the flu rather than lying in bed. I could have spent that time in the bathroom getting to know the bathroom fixtures intimately! LOL

I think I’ll just relax and watch TV for a while now. My husband was channel surfing and he’s just come across a BBC taping of the Rolling Stones in Concert in 1968 on PBS. I love the Stones. I’m happy to watch that for a while.

Now I’m getting the flu too

by

Oh oh, I think I might be getting that flu that Chris has now too. I felt like crap all night last night and all day.

Chris got up today to go to work, but he came back upstairs at 8:30 to ask me to call in sick for him. I’d just fallen asleep. Well, I’d fallen into a light sleep full of really strange dreams and then Chris came in the room saying “I’m sick – call my boss for me?”. I didn’t mind doing that for him, but I wish he hadn’t woken me up.

If this is the flu it’s a weird flu. I feel a little bit nauseous, but then I feel that way on and off with my Crohn’s too. Mostly I just feel blah … and weak and dizzy. Oh and my tongue feels like home theater carpet. Maybe I should go get some water?

It seems that the flu is really hitting Toronto hard. We’re apparently in an “unofficial” quarantine. I’m not exactly sure what that means … maybe there’s unofficial travel advisories?
