Yumm... chicken liver from last night. Only 3 days until Christmas. It's been a busy week and I think it'll be like this until after New Year's. It's a good kind of busy; lots of excitement with just a hint of stress. Before you know it, another day's done and you're down for the count at bedtime. It rained today. Had leftover chicken liver {delicious!} for brunch. Opened a few presents {not mine} after dinner. One was a set of stainless steel fork, spoon and chopsticks in a neoprene zippered pouch - it was cute; the pouch was cute. We started planning for Noche Buena . That's only 2 days away. I saw a couple of Christmas gift baskets with food here so the staples are pretty much covered - ham, cheese, pasta. Can't wait.

someone told me that jollibee's sausage-"silog" was the most substantial meal on their breakfast menu. i want to try the corned beef next. we had an appointment earlier. we were out the door by 6 a.m. and arrived early for our thing. the thing was done in less than an hour. on our way home, we bought jollibee takeout because no one wanted to cook breakfast. we were home by 9:30 a.m. i ate and then i slept. it was a productive morning.

Glad the appetite's back. So far, when I get up from the dinner table, I walk like I'm full-term-preggy. Harhar.

was out of it last week - caught a virus. it was sudden. couldn't do much but rest, take tylenol for the aches and fever, 'ascof' for the cough, and wait for it to run its course. it started dawn on saturday, nov. 24: fever and chills for 4 days {mainly at night, in bed}, blunt pain around the rib cage started on day 2, productive cough started day 3, general icky-ness was gone by day 6. now, it's day 8, still nursing a barking cough but apart from that, i'm a-ok. thank goodness.
