Couple of Miserable Days

Two days this week I laid on the couch with a heating pad on my chest.  I had pleurisy.  Yuck.

I have very specific instructions about when to call the Dr.  A fever over 101.4 is one of the major rules.  In the afternoons I got to 100.4 but then it would edge down to 99 before bedtime. 

So I didn’t call anyone, just used the old fashioned cure and it seems to have worked.

I’m still not back to my normal but I am eating today, regular food, not chicken soup. 

The dogs were very patient with me.  I have found if I cover Bandit up with a light throw he is very happy.  He didn’t even get up when Lory and John stopped by.

We did have enough snow to cover the grass and put a cap on one of my bowling balls.  I get colorful bowling balls at thrift stores and put them around the yard as gazing balls.  The snow had melted by noon the next day.

There were a lot of accidents and some black ice.  I’m grateful I have a warm house and don’t need to go out if the weather is bad. 

Planning to feel a bit better each day.

later….
