Rainy Saturday
I ended up not going to visit my elderly father-in-law yesterday. I felt tired and a bit out-of-sorts. In many ways I wish I would have gone, but that is in the past now. Instead, what I did, because I knew of the impending rain we would get all weekend long, is, that I mowed the lawn.
Whatever this illness I had first acquired 12 days ago, was a doozy. While physically I am much improved (today, I would say B+ as I feel a bit more run down than I would like), it is a long-lingering sort of cold/flu where you do not bounce back as quickly as I would like to. I have heard this from others as well, as it seems to be an illness that is "going around" these parts. Most say they are worn and wiped for 2.5 - 3 weeks.
I am hoping my vim and vigor return soon. It is aggravating to have so much residual phlegm still and to also get tired so early in the evening.

Pipe, I hope you return to full well being soon. I am lucky in the fact that I haven' had a cold, virus, or infection in years. Probably a decade. My diseased brain makes up for it, though.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever had a co-worker come in one morning after having been been absent the previous day and say "I had the flu yesterday"? And they are standing upright and look fairly healthy? I don't know what they had "yesterday" but it was not the flu! The fly will put you "out of order" for at least a week, maybe more.
ReplyDeleteNot "the fly" but "the flu" - sorry 'bout that.
ReplyDeleteA: You are not young anymore, so you bounce back slower.
ReplyDeleteB: You smoke, don't expect that to help with age.
C: Beautiful weather here for a change, just fucking beautiful.
D: Ah hell, forgot what D was. LOL
In due course.
ReplyDeleteWait...until then, there's brandy with lime and honey...
