Head colds hit us hard over the weekend. I just thought I was feeling better on Friday. It was one of those weekends where we never left the house, and we were just in survival mode with a 3 year old. I stayed in bed all of yesterday, and Kevin felt a bit better. My head hurt so much I couldn't read, and I didn't have the stomach for coffee. That is when I know I really am sick. It was rough.
I did have some yummy tea though.

Boyd wanted to show you his fruities that he had for breakfast this morning. We didn't make it to the grocery store, so we scraped together what we could for meals.
My poor babe has barely left the house all week, but he has been so good.
At one point I wanted to call one of our moms to come help, but the last thing we wanted to do was get someone else sick. Is 38 years old too old to need your mama?!
I learned a few things while watching entirely too much tv over the weekend.
I'm so thankful for a bed, but even after a while they hurt to lay in.
I'm thankful for our comfortable home, and that we live in an affordable place. I watched a lot of House Hunters over the weekend.
Whitney Houston's funeral was so moving. I loved Kevin Costner's eulogy, and when R. Kelly sang, and Bebe Winans. It made me think that we all deserve second chances & lots of forgiveness, and none of us know what she really went through.
I watched Oprah and Tony Robbins last night. I wish I had the extra money to go to one of his seminars. He is amazing. I had pre-conceived notions about him. I don't anymore. I would even do the firewalk if I went. Did anyone else watch it?
I'm hoping for a well week for all, and lots of coffee drinking. The weather is supposed to be beautiful all week. Enjoy, whatever your plans are.

P.s.s It's Erika (Noah's Mommy) I don't know how to leave comments anymore without my blog
Man, sad to hear you are still not feeling great. I know it's bad when coffee doesn't sound good! You should go to the doc if you don't start feeling better soon. Sometimes those head cold can turn into sinus infections and linger forever!
You are right, we all need lots of forgiveness. It is so easy to be judgmental of celebrities...good point!
I hope you're feeling lots better today!
I watched part's of Whitney's funeral too. So sad...
Hope you guys have a good day!
I'm so sorry you all are so sick, do you need me to help in any way? We will be in Keller a ton this week getting ready for the redo later this week. I can go to grocery store or just bring food, or cupcakes.
Kevin C had me on tears.
I hope you will all get well soon. The 3 of us are all sick as well, and with this cold weather we're having here the flu is at it's best going from one person to the next.
I did not have the opportunity to watch WH's funeral, but I agree that it is too easy to judge. Success is very difficult to handle. Sometimes celebrities end up saying that they miss the life they had before as normal people and I think that says it all. Money isn't everything in life.
I hope that you're feeling totally better very soon. Trader Joe's tea has to help a bit. Glad you were able to get a lot of rest and that Boyd has been a trooper.
ugh, i've been there too - to the point where even the bed and continuous hgtv hurt ... so sorry :( feel better, friend!!
Hope you're feeling better today. I was down and out all weekend too...that cold is really kicking our butts! I'm glad Boyd was good for you...I think they can sense sometimes that we need that!
I didn't get to see Whitney's tribute on t.v....I loved her. I wore out her tape in high school! I made Brady sit and watch a few of her videos on youtube with me...I believe that children are our future song made me cry. So sad her life had to end so early.
I hate it when I don't feel good enough to read (that's when I cry out "Cruel, cruel world...why me?).
Oh dear!!! That is no fun! Especially when Mama goes down hard!!! Hope you are on the upswing now!
Hugs your way...
Kris
PS you are never old to need your Mama!!!
Hope you are feeling much better!
Have a great week.
blessings,

Everyone has been sick in my house except me. Hope you are back to feeling great soon. I love that tea.
sure hope you are starting to feel better nicolle!!
i spent the first half of sunday in bed as well. i hate getting sick. luckily i think after all that sleep i did feel much better. sure throws you out of the loop for a bit though doesn't it?
get well my friend!
Wow...I was hoping y'all would be 100% by now. Praying it comes VERY quickly! :)
Did you see the Houston Stockyards on The Bachelor? We were flipping channels last night and spotted some big cattle roaming a street so Sam yelled "STOP". To our surprise it was your Stockyards on ABC!
Sorry you were feeling bad...hope this week is way better! The bed and the TV can get really old...quick! At least you had that yummy tea!
your pictures are soooo good!! I wish you would teach me a thing or 12!!
I am sorry you are all ill... it is the pits! (however I did giggle at your 'too sick for coffee' comment!!
You are never too old to need your momma... that's what I tell myself-- and i hope my kids always take the same motto with them!
Hope you are coming out of your fog. We might be starting up here. Middlest is complaining of a head cold. The tea however sounds great. All the TV seemed to have a good effect on your morale though. Poor Whitney. She could have had the world.
Take care of yourself.

Hope you are feeling better, what a bummer to get hit by a cold. BTW I LOVE that tea and ration it out in my house. I usually pick it up at TJs and it is so yummy. It tastes like dessert to me. I might have to ask my hubs for a trip to your area so we can hit TJs for some staples, my stash is running low.
Hope you're feeling better! I know what you mean about having too much time in bed it hurts. I hate when I feel so yucky I can't get out of bed, but that's all I WANT to do. So totally opposite of how I normally feel about crawling into bed.
