Shall I Take A Poll?

Why there's a new tool button on my "Add an Entry" page!  Has it been there all along, or is it new?  It seems to be an "Add Poll" button.  Please tell me it's new and hasn't been there for ages and that I'm not just now noticing it!!

Makes me wish I had something on which to poll everyone!  I know!  I could take a poll to see if anyone else noticed a new "add poll" button!

I think I made my way around all the journals I normally read yesterday, and I even commented in most of them.  I was sick all weekend with some kind of allergy crud.  You know the kind -- starts out with itchy eyes and nose and throat, stuffy head, sneezing your head off all day long, leading to a sore, blistered throat.  I treated all the allergy symptoms, drank lots of orange juice, ate soup, gargled with warm salt water, and slept and slept and slept.

     Yesterday I felt much better, but not altogether well.  Right now I'm awake because Thomas just left for work, and the strange sleeping pattern I've had for the past few days seems to be keeping me from going back to sleep right now.  So I'm brewing some coffee, and I actually think I could eat breakfast right now, as early as it is.  I have a feeling I'm going to have to go to the doctor; otherwise I think this is going to turn into a sinus infection if it hasn't already.

And I wasted a really great weekend.  Andrew was gone practically the whole time, camping out with friends.  Thomas and Eler Beth spent quite a bit of time fishing, and I could have had the house to myself for most of two days out of three.  Think of all the reading I could have done, or computer time I could have logged, etc.  And I had to spend it sleeping or sneezing or disinterestedly changing the TV channels, not really wanting to do anything.

Yesterday Eler Beth had an easy day of school work, because I just didn't feel like doing much.  She did a lot of reading and some math games on the computer.  She may just have an easy day today, too! 

I had all kinds of things I was going to write about last week but didn't get around to doing.  I hope I can remember what they were!  If I do, you may see another entry from me today. 

I hope everyone has a good hump day!

The add a poll button was installed last night.  I think I have the crud you just got rid of.  Throat is killing me!  Have a great hump day.  I hate short weeks sometimes.  I still feel like today is Tuesday!
