*Croak*

A morning of talking while I caught up with my parents and did their taxes. My dad is doing great and has been cleared to start his rehab to build back his strength. Follow that up with a lovely, slow, yappy lunch with Jax. Combine that with the cold I was fighting, and this is now how I sound:

Sigh. I *always* lose my voice when I get a cold!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I will try the tactic of Sayesha from American Idol, the gal who lost her voice in the first day in the Hollywood round. She walked around with a notepad the entire second day and refused to speak so that she could sing on the critical day 3. So I am shutting it down. Don’t call me. Just email or text. I’m not talking the rest of today or tomorrow unless totally necessary so that my voice will be back for Monday. Good thing SportsBoy has no games this weekend.
