Well, Chrissie is back and stirring about now and this will be my last blog for a while. She’s actually started getting dressed in the morning, instead of lying around in her PJs all day. I take that as a sign of recovery. I think what brought her back from the brink were the oatmeal-raisin cookies I baked her on Wednesday.

Don’t they look yummy!

These are her favorite cookies and once she took a bite her whole aura got just a little brighter. But then who isn’t happier biting into a fresh baked cookie?

I think she will continue to milk this sickness for as long she can. Now, when she can’t reach the TV remote sitting just a few inches out of reach, she’ll give a little cough and ask me to get up from across the room to hand it to her. She doesn’t think I notice the gleeful smirk that appears when I turn around but I can see it out of the corner of my eye. I’ll let her pretend for a couple more days. Who doesn’t like a little extra pampering anyway? Besides, my wife is worth it 🙂

Thanks for reading.
