I completely did it to myself!

I have been burning the candle at both ends lately trying to keep up with the many hats that we wear around here; it is deep into wedding season you know. As a result, a quickly caught cold waylaid me yesterday and put me down for the count. I felt miserable, didn't want to do anything (if you know anything about me, that is NOT me!), and generally tried to fight it. I gave up around 5 pm and took a nap. Wow!
