    Hong Kong Fluey

    By Samantha | March 11, 2008

    What is it you ask? It’s like my version of the flu. I swear, and my boss laughs at me but I swear it is true, that I got the flu from opening our shipment of shoes from overseas. I called it Hong Kong Fluy just cause it sounds cool. I don’t really know where ‘those’ particular shoes came from.

    However, I do believe that my dear boss is having second thoughts about nay saying me on the ole fluey patooey because he ain’t feelin so fine himself this evenin and yeppers he unpacked shipment this week since he finally taught me how to work the register which is something that I really wasn’t crazy about learning. Me and money? eh…not so much. I’d rather unpack boxes or help people. I like helping people. Normally.

    I digress. So all last week I was sick and I’m only feeling up to about 50% so far. We’ll see how the rest of the week goes. There’s been lots of stress at my house and I hate to even bring this up but if you don’t see me for a little bit I want cha to know why. My hubby, the man that puts up with all my nonsense, works in the construction industry and if you follow the news even a little bit you know that his industry is sucking wind bad. Especially for residential. Well, it finally hit us and we got the news quite suddenly last week that like he wouldn’t have a paycheck at the end of this month.

    Wammo!

    Tell me that doesn’t suck right? So we’re scramblin’ and trying to make arrangements and figure stuff out so if I seem to be a little well, off kilter shall we say? You know why. It sucks. It’s life. And we’re gonna make it through this but if you could see your way to like keep us in your thoughts. We’d sure appreciate it!

    Till next time, you guys stay well and don’t let that Hong Kong Fluey catch you!!!!

      {{{{{Sammie}}}}} I hope and pray that both health and work improve for your family. I know the type of stress things like this generate. Email me if you need to vent or just need an “ear.”
