Oops...First "Bad" Day

Today is John's first "bad" day.  He's having some nausea and the rash/swollen lips are not going away.  So he's taking his first sick day from work in, literally, 13 years.  I guess he's entitled.  I'll keep him pumped up on full doses of Benadryl since he's going to be home and able to sleep.  As I write he's snoozing on the couch in front of the fireplace with Abigail and Token curled up with him.  There's nothing like "kitty comfort" when you don't feel well.  Fortunately we are well stocked with ginger ale, homemade chicken stock and -- of course -- tons of ice cream.  And there's some leftover lobster mac & cheese should he want some comfort food.  It's trying to snow but it seems Mother Nature can't quite make up her mind.  We were spared the recent snowfall with the bulk of this past week's winter blast hitting Mt. Vernon, about 40 miles south.
Any "feel-good-juju-vibes" you can send John's way would be much appreciated today.  Thanks for checking in.  Nurse Nancy signing out....

  1. I hope he feels better soon! And happy birthday to him. Kind of a crap present, getting so sick, but I'm glad the kitties are doing their best to help him feel better too.

    Lots of yay-unallergic-happy-feel-better vibes *waggles fingers* I'll continue to think in that direction. Take care *hugs* and hopefully I'll see you guys sometime relatively soonish.
