On Wednesday night, I woke up in the middle of the night to hear that Bracken had a runny nose. Yesterday, we came down with something. I wanted to stop by here to say that we will not be making it to market tomorrow, even though we were very much counting on it. I said aloud “I wonder what picture to use for this post?” and Jeff pointed across the room and said “How about that bag of tissues?” (haha. You can always count on him for a dose of humor.) With continually runny noses, we have been going through a crazy amount- roll after roll- of toilet paper. I thought a picture I took recently of the dandelion Bracken stuck in his pocket, would be more enjoyable. An epsom salt bath felt good on an aching body today. And when my throat felt a bit sore last night, our coconut oil treats with frozen blueberries felt wonderful going down. Apparently I reek of garlic. Jeff says he can smell me from across the room. It’s worth it. I was up with Bracken for much of the night. His runny/stuffy nose would wake him up and, half asleep, he would ask for tissues. We finally got some sleep, but not enough for this tired mama. I am feeling much better than I was. But that’s when I’m sitting down, not doing anything. So we’ll be staying home this weekend, filling up our online shops to try to make up for not going to market. Not having a nap today, I’m very much in need of an early bedtime tonight.

Wishing you all a good weekend & be sure to come back tomorrow for a great giveaway!
