Here in the south there are always wonderful terms to describe the most mundane things. Take the word "busy" for example, sure we can add words to it like "insanely", "crazy", or "stupid" to really drive home the point. But check this out, Here one would say, "I'm just covered up!" Said with a sad smile and a little shrug of the shoulders and you might even get a hug from the person you are talking to, you will definitely get a sympathetic " well, bless your heart..." and a pat on the hand. That friends, sums up my last few months. Ive simply been covered up! In the grand tradition of a picture is worth a thousand words, Ill let these few do the talking and catch up with words when I can string them together again in a semblance of coherency.
