Just Stay in Bed

When I left for work this morning, Lion was vertical. I’ve since learned that didn’t last long. He wrote a short post and crawled back in bed. I told him to make sure he drinks OJ or water and he should eat something. There’s leftover soup from last night but he can eat crackers if that’s all he can manage. As long as he eats something, I’ll be happy.

Lion forgot to remind me it was punishment day on Saturday. I figure he’s lucky he could make it to the bathroom when he needed to so I’m not going to punish him. I forgot too. Of course, it’s not my job to remember. But if he’s not feeling well he shouldn’t have to remember either. It’s more important to get well.

We watched our football team actually win again. That’s always exciting, especially since they weren’t able to get out of their own way for most of the season. Our rookie running back is very impressive. It’s fun to watch him. I’m sure that went a long way to make Lion feel a little better last night.

I fell asleep toward the end of the game. Between Lion’s coughing and my own, we didn’t get much sleep. We only took short naps yesterday. We’re taking baby steps toward getting well. Tonight maybe we’ll even manage to snuggle a bit.
