When Mama's Sick

Sometimes life calls for compromise. This week has been rough because the little guy has been sick and now I've come down with the crud too. In an effort to 1: make the little guy smile and 2: get out of cooking, I let him choose what he wanted for dinner last night. His menu:

- Chocolate ice cream with sprinkles
- Squeeze cheese with crackers
- Peeps (thanks Nana)
- Guacamole dip with chips (OK, this was my menu addition)
- BBQ potato chips
- Milk (his choice, I promise!)

Hubs walks in, looks at our buffet spread out on the counter.
Him: What's for dinner?
Me: You're lookin at it.
Him: Dip? We're having dip for dinner?
Me: Dude, I'm sick, gimme a break...it IS homemade...
Him: I'll fix a sandwich...
Me: Fine, more guacamole for us.

    Sounds like something my daughter would want, although she'd probably add some sort of ice cream. Hope you both get well soon! :O)

    All I have to say is: What's wrong with this menu? Is it supposed to be unusual in some way? Are squeeze cheese and Peeps not part of a well-balanced meal??? Now you tell me! P.S. Hope y'all are feeling better.

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
