More Fun

 Started developing a cold a few days after the blizzard.  I assume I caught it from Proge and that he picked it up when we did our pre-snow market run.  I have been rapidly improving...........until I woke up this morning with a sight temp and lungs feeling tight and congested.  Things are loosening up and phlegm is clear so it's more of a nuisance than a disaster.  BUT STILL!!!

I also realized that a tick bite I got a while before the storm has not cleared so I started antibiotics this morning.  I am supposed to start them if a bite has not cleared in a day or two.  It may not bee full-blown Lyme but active enough to cause problems..  

Excuse me....but....I fail to see the need for ticks in the balance of living things!

Meanwhile the snow has been melting nicely due to warmer weather and heavy rain last night.  We now have a yard full of slush.  Toes crossed any freezing temps are fleeting or else we will. have giant skating rink on our hands.  It has happened!

We go on Daylight Savings on Sunday.  To which I say AAARRRGGGHHH!!!  I have gotten to the point where the sun shines directly into my bedroom window so have not needed my SAD lamp.  Not so fast, girlie!  I'll be back to using the SAD lamp for the next three or four weeks and continue with all the other stuff I do to fight this.

On a happier note the marigold seeds I planted are sprouting nicely.  I love growing the little French variety.  They bloom quickly and have such cheerly little yellow to orange flowers. They'll be ready for their first transplant in a week or so....time to gather supplies.

We're going to do a quick market trip this afternoon.  Think I'll look for primroses.

Stay strong, stay safe, and as always, thanks for stopping by............*s*
