Man, It is Cold Out Here!


Just gathering up my energy get up from the couch and move to cuddle up in my bed- I have been avoiding every illness that has blown by... Hey- nurses never get sick!... and then, my nose started dripping (allergies?) and I got a little fever (hot flash?) and finally, this morning, I was forced to capitulate... I had to miss my Saturday outing with my girlie-girl... She went off to visit a college with some of her gal-pals yesterday and returned today, bringing me some ice cream (since she had this bug, she remembered that was all  SHE had wanted.) Fortunately, my sweet husband person saves the day, picking up everything I (try not to) touch with mitts (I asked him where he lost his MASK!) and kind son dropped by to visit and chatted from the doorway- We are all devoted hand-washing, elbow sneezing & elbow-coughing zealots...and I appreciate them "hanging in there" with me...
