Let's Make a Deal! Or not.

Photobucket

Can you believe it's been a week already? Where does the time go? Did you learn anything this week? If not, maybe you should check out What I Learned This Week over at Musings of a Housewife. Couldn't hurt...

For this week's post, I'll be reposting one of my early blog posts. Why? Because it's fitting for what I learned this week.

It's time to play... Let's Make A Deal!

Monty Hall: Okay, Wendy, do you want what's behind door number one, door number two or door number three?

Me: Oh! It's so hard to choose! I think I'll go with door number two, Monty!

Monty: Jay, tell her what she's won!

Jay Stewart: She's won a new case of pneumonia! It comes with weeks worth of incredible chest pain, a hacking cough, and burning lungs! But wait, she's also won complete and total exhaustion!

Monty: Uh... What a great prize... But doesn't Carol Merrill look lovely modeling it?

Jay: Wow, that's a Zonk if I ever saw one...

Me: And to think... I never win anything.

Yes, I went to the doctor yesterday and I've got pneumonia. Again. I really need to stop wishing that I had something to post about for this blog carnival. I guess that would be two lessons learned this week...

Now how about checking out my Life is Funny blog carnival? It's completely pneumonia-free!

Bless your little heart! I have never had pneumonia but my brother has and it was BAD. You take care of yourself. Maybe you should come to the sunny south?? :)

Wendy said...

Casey - Are you trying to kill me? You know that Florida and I don't get along...

Oh boy...put your feet up, stay away from shutter painting and relax! I hope you're feeling better soon. This is definitely a you've got to be kidding me moment.

Casey said...

I am beginning to think it doesn't care too much for me either to be honest with you.
I'd pick door #3 next time. :)

What a coincidence. Bob and are going to the doctor this afternoon to find out then nature of our "prizes". I have my finger crossed for a bladder infection. Wish me luck....

Jo said...

Double bummer. Did you at least get some good meds out of the package? You know, so you can sleep without hacking up a lung or two?

Kristin said...

I hope you feel better! A few years ago I had pneumonia, and I had a one and three year old at home. Hubs had just started a new job and couldn't take off... I felt like I was left for dead! He felt terrible about leaving me. But I will say, as soon as the antibiotics kick in, you'll feel so much better, really quick! I bet you'll even feel a little better by tomorrow. Feel better soon!!

Oh no - wishing you "get well" thoughts from Ireland.

Take care.

Well, bless your heart Wendy, I hate this for you. Yesterday I mailed out a couple of things to you...it will be perfect timing!

At least it's not the swine flu!

Bummer! Even worse when you're sick in the summer.
Hopefully drugs will help . . . in more ways than one. :)

Ugh! Poor you!

And I've been meaning to ask where in Washington you live. I'm driving out to Seattle at the end of July. If you're close by, we should have coffee. Oh, and what ever happened to my "prize"??? I need to re-post that too, don't I?

Helen said...

JACKPOT! It's a urinary tract infection for me...

Lori said...

What a hilarious post! I love the format - how smart! Hope you're feeling better again soon. :)

Candy said...

I feel cheated. All I got was a rash.

I hope you are feeling better soon. Maybe it will cheer you up that I am checking out your blog because someone left me your link on my Bloggers I Admire post: http://elementaryspirits.com/2009/06/bloggers-i-admire/

Love all the music. Very cool!

Nice to meet you!!
