Snow + Sick

Greetings from the North Pole!  Yesterday we received 7" of snow (a record in these parts) and more is on the way.  The kids are loving it.  Unfortunately Mr. and I have been sick since last Friday. I've had a fever most of the week and feel like my head has doubled in size.  The house is full of large hungry bodies teenagers and the sun isn't shining.  So those pictures I planned on taking of projects in the works haven't happened yet.  I've been pinning, blog reading and checking in on instagram once in a while (from bed or the couch).

Funny story...

Tuesday Mr. took me to the doctor.  I was showered, but for all practical purposes looked as if I was approaching death.  Un- flat ironed hair (100% grammatically incorrect), no make-up, ratty sweats.  You know the look right?  Right?  Anyway, we left the doctor and I decided to go back to bed.  Suddenly we realized we had an appointment to get passports - in one hour!  We had grand plans of having everything ready for the appointment ahead of time, but the sickness threw us off. I scrambled to find an acceptable picture on the computer of the boys and me.  We worked and worked to get the photo size right for the passport, etc.  Finally we had it!  Only to find out it was all wrong and so my picture had to be taken at the passport office.  With my nappy hair, no make-up, ratty sweats, fever ridden, head doubled self.  Barrump!  Hopefully Italy will let me in.  #mugshot

By the way, I've embraced the nettie pot.  Do any of you use one?  I'm curious.  Do you have any good cold remedies?  I'll be back tomorrow with Friday links so long as there's electricity.  Stay warm lovebugs!
