My Life (In as many posts as it takes) #76

 In which I've had a cold, and have gotten nothing done. 


This week has been pretty pathetic for my to-do list. I had been hoping to write, clean and get ready for Christmas but then I got a cold. It was not bad but I had a fever two days and now I've had a soar throat and stuffed up nose for two as well. 

But lifes good, I get tomorrow to finish recovering before the holidays hit me. 

I do have one funny story to share though.
I went to a nursing home to pick up my siblings who had been singing Christmas carols there, and while waiting out in the hallway a ninety-six year old man stopped to talk to us. After a moment of conversation he looked me up and down and said "You are as cute as a teddy bear in cotten." It was so cute yet so funny, I was grinning so hard. I wanted to laugh, but he meant it so sweetly I couldn't. Needless to say, I doubt I'll ever forget that complement. 





Mushroom.




A rose bud.

Have you ever been given a compliment that's sweet and funny at the same time? 
Comment below and share your story, please!

    Your photography is just so perfect! I don't think that I've gotten a comment like yours. Hmmm. If I remember or have an experience I'll come back!

    Lovely pictures <3 I love the mushroom and purple flower!
    I haven't been very productive either lately - today I have about a bajillion presents to wrap and hours' worth of piano to catch up on. *sighs* Well, I guess I'd better get right to it.

    Aww, that's such a cute compliment!! I don't think I've gotten a compliment like that. Oh, I hope you feel better soon!! It's never fun to be sick around the holiday season, so I hope you're feeling better by Christmas. :) We have actually been really lucky and haven't gotten a cold yet this season, which is really surprising actually! ;P But yeah! I hope you have a Merry Christmas!!!
