Maybe I should have just went back to bed yesterday!

Have you ever had one of those days where you just want to crawl back into bed and start the day all over again? I had one of those days yesterday. Actually it started Monday night. I did some laundry Monday after getting up from a nap (worked Sunday night). The sheets dried nice and I threw in our big blanket. This usually takes two rounds in the dryer as it is so big but it gets dried. My husband brought the blanket up for bed and threw it on the bed where I was already. It was still really damp. I thought that was weird but I didn't worry as it wasn't super wet and it would dry.

When I woke up Tuesday I realized I finally came down with that nasty head cold that has been going around. Great! I can't get sick right now. I had avoided it for almost 3 weeks. Hubby had it the week before I left for Blissdom Canada and I managed to not get it. Oh well it has finally found me. Now to work on getting better before the end of the month.

After having a coffee I decided to start a load of laundry and check out the dryer. I turned the knob and pushed the button to start the machine and nothing happened. I tried again, still nothing. Hmm, I guess this is dryer #2 that has died in 6 years. I will be hanging clothes outside for awhile until we figure out what we want to get. I am happy we don't have the white stuff on the ground yet.

I did get in a nice walk with Miss Molly after we got the kids on the bus. Yesterday we did a 6.98km walk in the morning and it felt great to get out and clear my head.

Just before lunch I feed the animals and checked in on our rabbit, Preston who is 9 and 1/2 years old. He didn't look good at all so I pulled him out to sit with me. He did not stay with me longer than 15 minutes after I picked him up. This was really hard on myself as I have had him for what seems like forever! Especially for a bunny. He was a beautiful chinchilla color New Zealand Giant and the friendliest bunny I have ever known. He wasn't a biter and would actually lick and suck on your finger.
He loved to hang out and hop around the house and play with the cats. I had to explain that Preston passed away to the kids when they arrived home and the tears started all over again. Both of the kids are very attached to all our pets and A has been looking after feeding Preston for awhile now. She took it pretty hard and wants to get a stuffy that looks just like him. He was suppose to live forever she said. P was upset and shed his tears but was able to understand that Preston lived a long and happy life. He is with Poppa up in Heaven and will be happy and healthy there.

After having such a rough morning I decided that a bucket of Chinese food from the place near us was in order. I took the short walk over and spent all of $5.65 on this very tasty lunch. It didn't make my day better but it did give me a full belly and some comfort food.
