A Well-Decorated Box of Puffs

About two weeks ago, I came down with a bad cold, and I've been using a lot of tissues. At work our office-mom keeps Puffs as the regular stock, but here at home I normally have Scotties. Rob suggested a few times that I buy some Puff's as my nose has been suffering, but I didn't want to as I kept thinking I would be better "tomorrow". Finally, on Saturday (about a week and a half into my cold) I broke down and went and bought some. (As a side note, going to the grocery store on the Saturday before Easter Sunday at about noon is NOT a good plan - horrifically busy!). Then on Saturday night I visited my parents, Puffs box in tow. Apparently I was being rather possessive about my Puffs box, or else Lisa's creative genius had a sudden surge, as I brought it home looking like this:








The Puff's are well worth the money at the rate I was going through them - I emptied the box with Lisa's artwork in about 24 hours! Thankfully the second box is lasting me a little longer. It, incidentally, thanks to Lisa again, is also similarly decorated, as Rob and I were at my parent's again last night, me again with a Puffs box in tow.

Last Wednesday morning I woke up feeling punched it the face, which is how I feel when my sinuses are sore. Today I went to the clinic, as my self-diagnosis was sinusitis or a sinus infection of some sort. The doctor confirmed sinusitis, and I now have an assortment of medications to speed me on the road to recovery.




However, don't feel too sorry for me - my little nephew Alex not only has sinusitis but also an ear infection. But he's on antibiotics as well and hopefully in a few days both Alex and his Aunt Karen will be feeling well again! I'm certainly looking forward to that!
