It was not much, but it was snow.
I used the ac Wednesday night, wore a summer nightgown and thin throw over me. When I left to go to the ER, I forgot to turn off the ac. It was 61 F yesterday, so the ac was needed but not all day long while I was gone. Last night, once again, I used just the throw, the $2.50 kind from WM.
Today, I wore a spaghetti strap blouse and light cardigan with nylon jacket over that. It was just right outside.
The became fierce and I saw tiny pebbles of snow dancing around the streets, on the ground and on my windshield. It was a wild and beautiful sight. It made me really happy. Of course, since I am getting better, regaining my health. Nothing stuck even a little bit.
As I lay on the bed without changing my clothes, I felt chilly. Finally, after fighting the cold for an hour. I realized it was 24 F degrees. Needless to say, a sweatshirt replace the spaghetti strap top.
I am actually going to cook tonight instead of just eating a sandwich or going out to get something. The injection last night and meds today have worked miracles on me. I have actually picked up stuff from the house. For a month, I just have let things go.
On the news tonight, I heard that flu can live on door handles for 24 hours. I hope scientists can guess better next year to formulate a vaccine that will work on the strain that comes next year. Because of this ordeal for a month, I will become that paranoid person who wipes, sprays, and never touches anything in order to avoid the flu.
Now, to go cook. I will put beans on, cook pasta for a jar of bought pasta. I want to cook potatoes, too. I may cook the potatoes first, then the beans. I hope I don't give out before I get three easy dishes done.
All the Christmas candy has been separated from the trash of the wrappers I discarded in the bag of candy. I can share this tomorrow with some teens.
Glad you are feeling better! Stay warm__It's cold all of the sudden.
ReplyDeleteAnne,
DeleteSoooo cold. I thought cold was over for us.
Glad you're better! Don't overdo though- stuff can wait. We had a balmy day yesterday but now today it's turning cold again. I think I'm going to bake.
ReplyDeleteNAN,
ReplyDeleteI waited...lol. Just boiling pasta was enough as I did not have the strength or gumption to work more. Baking sounds like a good idea.
Wash your hands; don't touch your face; use wipes and such to open doors/handles.
ReplyDeleteI always read the magazines. No more. I was obsessive about this in the ER. I touch my face too much! Now, I am much more aware of my actions now. Thanks.
DeleteJust catching up on your posts ... glad you are feeling better.
