Under the Weather

Sorry I haven’t been around much – after so long with no health issues other than MS, I finally succumbed and caught a bad cold. I had been dealing with my normal allergies that arise when I unpack all my Christmas decorations, but this year, it seemed to last longer. I was sniffling and sneezing every other day. I was bad on Christmas day at my daughter’s – they have a dog. On New Year’s Eve, I was sneezing at our friends’ house – they have two little Cavaliers, but I’m never bad around them. Then I learned that they were puppy sitting for their daughter’s dog, and I am allergic to her. On New Year’s Day, I was hoarse, and by Monday, my voice was fading. Yesterday and today, I’ve had laryngitis, and a full-blown cold. I’ve just stayed inside, curled up in my soft fleece throw, drinking liquids and watching TV. I can’t really complain because I haven’t been sick in years. So I’ll put up with the stupid cold – I know it will be gone quickly, and I’ll look forward to a long stretch of good health.

It’s freezing around here right now, so I’m glad I’m indoors. They say it should be milder by the weekend, so I’ll be patient. I don’t remember a winter like this – warm temps for quite a while. I’ll take it!
Hope everyone else is feeling well.

Peace,
