perfect remedy:

I haven't been feeling super great the last couple of days...and by that, I mean I've been feeling HORRIBLE!

* Sunday - I spent all day in my pajamas, mostly curled up on the couch.
* Monday - I taught my classes in the morning and then came home, put on comfy sweats and slept until Brett got home at 4:30.
* Today - I felt as though I might be coming down with the flu. Headaches, chills, nausea, the works.

However, I took my temperature and all was normal. I took another nap (along with some Tylenol) and woke up feeling much better. Maybe it was just a little bit of morning sickness I experienced - at least that's what I'm hoping. I keep freaking myself out that I'm going to come down with the stupid swine flu.

Even though I was feeling crummy this morning, I had a lunch date planned with my good friend, Katie (who's visiting from Southern California this week) and I didn't want to miss out on seeing her. So, I freshened myself up and ventured out.

Getting out of the house was the start to my perfect remedy. It gave me a much needed energy boost and after a great lunch & catch up time with Katie, I decided to continue my outing and made a few stops at TJ Maxx, Ross and Borders. I don't know if it was the simple act of shopping, or the great deals I found, but by the time I got home, I was feeling MUCH better! :)

Here is the list of items I found and the wonderful prices I paid for them:

Ross:
3' x 5' area rug (to be used in our kitchen) - $7.99

TJ Maxx:
4 bath towels - $10 total
2 bath mats - $8.99 total
6 kitchen hand towels - $4.99 total
1 cutting board - $5
&
1 of these:


$3.99





I just love a good deal...
