Pearl Chaser Down

It was only a matter of time, right?  It was inevitable.  Bound to happen.  All sewn up. Open and shut.  Met my Waterloo.  Yes.  I caught the flu.

I made it all the way to March 9th.  I washed my hands at every sink.  Stopped at the sanitize dispenser every time I passed.  Clorox wiped every shopping cart.  Rested. Exercised.  Stayed hydrated.  Ate well.

But, no.  That little bugger (literally) found me.  Laughed at me and my OCD behavior as it rode my nostril passages like a slide at the water park.  And now I am down.

What does the Pearl Chaser do when she has been cut off at the knees?  Think hard.  It will come to you.  Yep!  I have been watching TLC’s Say Yes to the Dress all day.  But, I am sad.  I am bored.  I am being avoided like the plague (again, literally) by my own family.  An outcast.

But I want to thank you, my dear reader.  My blog gave me a reprieve.  I felt wanted, and I had something to do for an hour.  I am down but not out! I shall return. I will win this war.

Today’s pearl – chicken soup.  It is a classic.  And this is all I got.

  1. Oh Micki. Sorry to hear but You will feel better very soon. A pearl may come out of it. Keep writing. In fact this is a perfect time to write and research things you love and want to do. Speedy recovery I bet!!

  2. Oh! My poor beloved Micki!! I can vouch for your OCD cleanliness – so sorry those bugs won! It’s only a temporary set-back. You have a month to recover and Tea Leaf Salad and Poki await you in CA! xoxoxo Feel better soon.
