Okay...what day is it?

Lemme think...Saturday? Yeah, I think it is Saturday.

This cold has still got a firm grip on me, but, it's changed tactics a little. I'm still fulla goop, but the sinus pain has let go for the most part, my throat doesn't hurt like it did (but I am still coughing) and the achy body part is better. Now with this crap, I'm deaf for the most part and I have no sense of smell or taste. Deaf...yeah, I'm deaf UNLESS I'm eating cereal...THEN it's loud as shit. Sounds like I'm crunching rocks. My voice is all husky, which I like anyway and I can sing again. (I know that's dumb, but it's one of my 'tests'...lol).

As for the house....I pretty much made it. By the time they got here, all that was left to be done was a little bit of vacuuming and a coupla loads of wash. Eric did the livingroom for me, so that was a huge help.
Tell ya what, though...no shower has EVER felt as good as that one did last night. My body was HURTIN'...

*Zoned out momentarily watching a movie called "A Bunny's Tale"*

Okay...so where am I already?....hmmm. They got here, house was good enough and that shower was excellent and I went to bed. Right. Got up this morning, finished off the wash, didn't finish vacuuming (pffft) and then...then I got an early birthday present from Eric. He got me a saddle for Storm. A Western one. It needed a cinch (girth, some people call it) and I went and got one this afternoon. It fits Storm and my butt and I love it. The sound of saddle leather squeaking in the rythym of the horses stride is so cool. I'd forgotten.
We (Storm and I) went all around the fields and in one stretch, along Bristol Rd. for a bit. Lotsa traffic and he did great. We were in the field, right along side the road and he never even flinched. He did however, decide he didn't wanna walk through two telephone poles that were about 20 feet apart. We backed through that, then spun around and went on. It was kinda cool. Fooled his ass, I did. We came back up the driveway and Eric was waving at me through the window. I waved back and rode right on by...(lmao). I didn't go too much further. I came back and let those guys do a few rounds. While I was in here grabbing a Sloppy Joe, they finished up with Storm, walked him down, brushed him up, bedded him, fed him and came in to do the eggs.
They're just finishing them up now. I'm just sittin' back watching. They're so cute to see all together. Hmmm...seems those egg wraps don't fit jumbo eggs...still, it's fun watching 'em struggle.

Lord, I'm beat again. I can tell by the way my nose is starting to feel that it's getting close to time to take my Nyquil.
Oh yeah...it's supposed to rain for the next four days. I'm trying hard not to believe that has anything at all to do with the fact that we now have a saddle...

Okay...I've read this three times so far and it's taken me over an hour to get this much typed, so I feel a need to apologize for the disjointedness herein, but...it's pure...right from my muddled lil brain to the keyboard.
I think it's a double-shot of...whatever it is. Half the cold and half exhaustion.
Whatever it is, it's making me make minimal sense, I think.

On that note...I'm goin' to bed now.

Peace.

P.S. I just yawned and one ear cleared up. Yay! That's a sure sign it's letting go of me. I may just live through this...cool.

Happy Easter, y'all!!!!!
