The Jokes on Me!

 

Remember in my last post,

I stated how my muscles were aching,

and I was sure the exercise was paying off

because I could feel aches and pains

I had not felt in a while.

Well I have some kind of bug

that has pulled the rug from under me.

It must be a swarm of bugs

because I feel like _______.

...................................

My steaming hot bowl of chicken noodle soup,

As I lift my spoon to my mouth

I question,

why is it so heavy.

Instant relief as I swallow the soup,

feeling the warmth

sliding down my throat,

soothing for just a lingering moment,

and then it is gone.

I taste another,

some release returns,

There is a ringing in my ears.

I place my hand on my forehead,

It feels so hot to the touch,

I am shivering,

2 big blankets in hand,

I make my way to the couch,

I get all settled in,

I glance around

and this time my house wins.

Today it can stay as messy as can be.

for when I am feeling like this,

it would not matter if the Queen were visiting me.

And if she does,

I hope she will make me more soup.

It's got to be Liptons,

so I should leave her a note.

I am talking delirious,

so I close my eyes,

and I drift into la la land.

..........

I shall return

but probably not for a few days.

Take care.
