Hello,My Name is Housewife: sick day

   TODAY IS THE DAY!!!!!

Welcome back after a long weekend! Hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday! We had a fantastic time with our friends and house guests. Nothing better then a weekend of laughing therapy. Did you know that in India there is a type of yoga where people get together in a park to laugh together for health reasons.
One of my kids was pretty ill in the middle of the night and I woke up this morning feeling tired and under the weather myself. Last time I was sick was a year ago. Today I'm taking a well deserved sick day.
HOW TO ENJOY YOUR ONLY SICK DAY? First, I take a shower and put comfy cloth on. Then I ask for help. I almost never do it, but today I 'm getting my IOU cards out and plan on spending the day in my pajamas watching movies.
My stack of films: The Lion in Winter
   The Sound of Music
   Hopscotch
   Soap Dish
   House Calls
   Moonstruck
I'll be a lucky girl today if I watch two. I'll start with KUNG FU PANDA.
I took the kids to see the second one this weekend. Surprisingly, I liked it. It was a good action film without the blood and foul language. I recommend it even if you don't have young kids. All five children with me (Ages 4-18) said the first one was better. I am about to find out. See my comment tomorrow.

   GOOD TOMATO

Did you know that if you store tomatoes stem side down they stay fresh longer. Try it next time you buy them. Big difference! Also, NEVER refrigerate tomatoes!
