isabelladangelo | Really sick now

I'm pretty sure this has gone from a cold to the flu. I pretty much got sent home. However, I can't really sleep so I'm basically all foggy headed (yeah yeah, I know. Nothing new) and miserable (Tea! And Lemon water I'm told. Although I was also told that Ginger Ale was perfectly fine). I want this to go away before the weekend.

In good news, I somehow got a "Time Off" award. I have no idea how. All the sudden, I checked my time card and I have 3 extra days I can take off...which is awesome because it means that I don't have to do a whole lot of comp time in order to go to Pennsic...unless this stupid flu/virus/cold thing keeps up. It better not.

This is the flannel I bought at Joanns. Like I said, rainbows, stars, and strawberries. It's perfect for three pairs of PJ bottoms.

Evidence I did cut out Mom's Turkish coat finally. It's all cut out. I folded the muslin in the middle like that because the muslin is the pattern for my Turkish coat and Mom is petite. I made sure it will fit her so it should be okay. The lining is pink striped linen. Hopefully, I'll get around to sewing it either tomorrow or Saturday. I need to finish that up and her chemise so she'll be properly clothed for Day in the Middle East....

When I had my chest cold a couple weeks ago, people kept recommending that I basically take advantage of being sick and drink a lot of hot toddies. I didn't take that advice, because we didn't have any whiskey, and instead drank lots of hot tea and liters of diet 7-up. My doctor has always told me that as long as you consume tons of liquids while sick, as long as they're not super sugary, it doesn't really matter what you drink.

The strawberry fabric is really cute. The pj bottoms will be rockin'.

Unfortunately, no alcohol here either. I have tons of tea (Southern thing) and ginger ale so that's what I've been downing.

Thanks! I love PJ bottoms. They are easy to make and instantly wearable.
