I don't think I've ever had a chest cold, but fuck if I don't have the killerest one now. My chest feels like a 20 pound weight is on it and my coughs are obnoxious. The coughing makes my chest hurt even more. This crap sucks! I'll take my usual sinus cold over this nonsense any day. Cameron is in my boat, too. Poor kid! Except he doesn't whine and complain about it like the 33-year-old baby.
In other news, it has been Extreme Painting Weekend at the Maddox house. We've painted the living room, the entry, the stairwell (I don't know how we did it, but it's done!) and the upstairs hall. Paint color = Sauteed Mushroom. I'll take some pictures tomorrow in some good light (and when my camera batteries have charged). We still need to put pictures back on the walls...and get the curtains drycleaned. I kicked ass today...I actually painted so hard that I broke the roller! Ok, so it was an old roller - let me have some fun anyway. Special thanks to Amy and Shawn who helped with the living room Friday night, and to my mom who entertained the kids while Tony and I knocked out the hallway and stairs.
Hey, guess what? I'm going to be an auntie again in September! Amy's going to be a mommy! I'm so excited! Someone's having a baby and it's not me!
Peace out. Cough, hack, cough, cough, cough.

Awwww! Congrats to Amy and Shawn!!! You must be so excited Mel, when you're not hacking away. I can't believe you could paint while feeling like crap! You're an animal.
Congrats to you, Aunt Mel! That's awesome news for Amy & Shawn!!! :-)
I know all too well about painting, but kudos to you on doing that while you were sick--I couldn't have done that!!!
Hope you feel better!!! ((((((HUG))))))
