A Formal Introduction

I would like to introduce you to the love of my life.

Meet Mr. Kleenex.

Isn't he sexy? Oh hell yeah. We have really bonded over the past few days and I think this relationship is going to last a while.

Yes that's right. Worst cold of the season.. and it's one day shy of April! What the?!

It's really been a rough few weeks in the Ondrey home. Jakob and I (and everyone else we know and love) were hit HARD with the flu a few weeks ago. I'm talking can't-crawl-out-of-bed-because-it's-the-end-of-the-world flu. Thankfully, we have wonderful family and friends who were there to baby us since we were too sick to "ohh pookie honey bunny are you okay?" each other back to health.

And now a doozy of a cold. Uncontrollable sneezing.. check. Watery eyes that make it look like you have been watching Titanic all day.. check. Red chapped nose.. check. I have officially become quite the facial tissue connoisseur over the past few days. I'm talking three ply lotion infused tissue or bust!

The only great perk of a nasty cold? Endless hours on the couch watching How I Met Your Mother reruns. I really can't complain. Barney and the gang are my new best friends (along with the love of my life Mr. Kleenex of course) and I am happy to embrace them!

Now if I only had stock in Kleenex*, that would really perk this lousy week right up.

*Because the internet gods are so lame I must let you know that I was NOT paid by Kleenex to brag about their amazing facial tissue with lotiony goodness. I'm just a tissue snob, simple as that. I am also a sucker for a good dessert and can not pass up a box that looks like a piece of cake... with a chocolate covered strawberry... I mean common!!
