Mood:  spacey

Good morning!

I promise I am not getting into a “no-write-on-Monday’s” trend. Yesterday we were at Mr. 2yr old’s house (he is like 4 now). Flyboy apparently made plans to go over there sometime early last week and never told me until they called Saturday afternoon asking what we were bringing. !!! You know, it would be nice to know these things on or the day after payday, before I set money away for savings… men.  

So yesterday I spent the day at a place I really didn’t want to go to (I have a few issues, that I wish not to get into) and we played D&D (dungeons and dragons, ((a role playing adventure type game))) with a house full of sick people. I wish they would have told us they were all sick to begin with. Mr. 2yr old’s parents were coughing and hacking, as well as Mr. 2yr old, who of course had to be Flyboy’s and my shadow the whole time. Then the people who came over were coughing, and sneezing, and I think one had a fever, she really didn’t look well at all. THEN they opened the back door to breeze out the house, since it was getting really warm with 9 people in there. Well this is pollen season, and it has been really dry out here and yesterday although it was a pretty day out, it was windy. Poor Flyboy, he is definitely coming down with something. =/ He told me that if he wasn’t feeling any better by tomorrow morning, he would go to sick call and see the Flight Dc. That may not sound like anything, but he fears the Flight Doc. Well, every flier fears the Flight Doc because the Flight Doc can make you DNIF (Duties Not Including Flying) with the click of his pen. When you’re DNIF you are not a very useful asset to the flying community and if you are DNIF for too long it gets harder and harder to get back to flying, even if the Doc gives you a “clear” to return to flying status. Anywho, Flyboy is willing to risk it, he feels that awful. I think he left with a slight fever this morning. I know, I know, I should have dragged him to sick call, but he has a training class today, which ironically is a bunch of lessons on ORM, Operational Risk Management. In a nut shell the course is about how “up-to-par” you are feeling on a fly day or really in general, so you know if you are able to handle the day or operation’s events. The better you score (like on a scale of 1-10) the more “okay” you are, the worse you score, well you probably shouldn’t “risk” it. *no pun intended* It is ironic because Flyboy is scoring really bad and yet he has to take this course because it keeps him current with, I have no idea what the next word I am needing is. It just keeps him current and the next class open isn’t for a few more months, you know? Don’t worry though, Flyboy said that after the course (which shouldn’t last too long) if he is still feeling the nasty, he’ll talk to leadership and see if he can come home. I did pack him some chicken noodle soup for lunch just in case. I also packed him some orange juice and apple juice (I have no idea how his throat or his tummy is feeling, so I gave him both that way he could choose. I gave him some fruit and some of my granola bar. (It really boosts his energy)(This time the granola bar has his nut mix, some Grape Nuts ((ew)) some peanuts and I added some smashed mini wheats. I think there might be some more stuff in there, but I can’t recall, it was another one of my experiments)

I am actually drinking some orange juice now, I can kind of feel something coming on, and I do not like it. =S

I better go for now, I need to do some dishes and figure out something for dinner. I have yet to make the Tin Plate Special, it looks really tasty though. =) Flyboy just threw the weekend plans off so I wasn’t able to get around to it. =/ But since he is at work, I can start on it now, I have to go to the store first, but yeah. Thank you! =) I hope you all get to feeling better! Take care!
