it's gonna take more than sugar...

...to cure what ails me. I feel like crap. Again. I've been downing cold and cough medicine like my life depends on it. Which I'm pretty sure it does, at this point. Pretty sure I have strep throat. I've been in denial. When I was still in school, I got it about twice a year. Since then (about 8 years) I've gotten it about 5 times. I'm going to have to admit defeat and go to the doctor. Clearly this is going to take antibiotics. *groan* Antibiotics make me sick. I'd rather just die and get it over with. I can't sleep because of the swollen burning of my throat (yay!) so I'm hopped up on My-Quil and posting my Spoonful.

Nothing sounds better than a really good soak in some really hot bath water. Filled with something designed to make me feel better. So I found me something. Now if only I could have it now. Right now. It comes from Raw Beauty. It's called "Get Well Bath Tea".

There's a whole bunch of other really cool stuff in this shop. Including something called "Sex Kitten Bath Tea". Hello...not that I'm having sex. Probably another part of my problem. Anyway, not even sex sounds better than a nice long soak in this bath tea. Soothing for my achy muscles and my sore throat, cough, and sniffles. Plus it comes in the absolute cutest jar ever! I love jars like that.

I'm going to lay down before I fall down. Night all.

avoiding life, one sugar covered post at a time...

I feel like crap today. My nose is runny & stuffy. My eyes itch. I have the worst sinus headache ever in the whole wide world. Everytime I so much as raise my arm I feel like I'm going to pass out. And still I have work to do. Ugh. Just so everyone knows, the scent of stain severely aggravates a cold. I still got stuff done today, but then I took a soaky bath with a eucalyptus bath bomb. Now I'm sitting in bed in my PJ's watching TV and shopping online.

I painted my toes today. It's kind of a pinky-orange color. I call it "Hooker Orange". I also have "Hooker Red" and "Hooker Pink". Do we see a rather disturbing pattern? Not that I think anyone would ever name their nail polish hooker-anything. I probably would though. It would make me laugh and I'd buy it just because it said hooker in the name. Maybe I should start naming the stuff in my shop hooker-something. That might generate some business...

I like it when people heart me on Etsy. It makes me smile. I make sure to always check out the shops of people who heart me, and my Spoonful of Sugar for today comes from someone who just hearted me this afternoon. It's a pretty little treasure chest from Sister Butterfly.

There are tons of beautiful treasure chests to look at! Plus having a treasure chest would just be cool. It would be like being a kid again when every rock you found was a treasure. Unfortunately, my taste in "treasure" has gotten a bit more expensive since then, but shouldn't beautiful things have a beautiful home?

Just so everyone knows, I try to contact everyone I feature in my blog. I'd so want to know if I got featured somewhere. Even on a dinky blog like mine :) But sometimes I forget to do it! So I'm sorry if you've been featured and never got a message.

I'm off to wallow in my misery. If I spend money today, I'm going to blame it on the anti-histamines.
