  • I'll be back

    It's been a while since I've posted, I know!  For the last 10 days or so, I've been under the weather, with the nastiest cold I can remember.  It started with a cough, and I've been coughing ever since.  A trip to Urgent Care got me a prescription for antibiotics and Mucinex -- and I've taken those faithfully.  I'm finally beginning to feel a little more human again, and hope that by the beginning of the week I'll be ready to get out and take some photos.

    It rained last night -- fairly hard for short periods, I think -- from the time I went to bed until I got up in the morning.  After a gray day today, it's supposed to warm up (from 60 today) gradually over the weekend.  I expect we had about 1/3 inch of rain -- not enough to solve the drought, but enough to give the idea that there still is such a thing as rain!

    I'll be back in business soon.

  • Colds are the worst! Hope you recover quickly.

  • Feel better soon, Janet. I'm sure you are self-doctoring, with hot tea and lemon. This has been quite an unusual storm for the region, and I am glad to see the rain, and even the snow. It'll warm up soon, but no guarantee of how long before the next storm.

    • Thanks, Gary! No -- I went to Urgent Care on day 2 of this one, and have been taking antibiotics and decongestants ever since! It's a nasty one, and they were concerned it might go to pneumonia (even though I've had both shots!). It's quite chilly here, and has been gray all week, with one good overnight rain. It's good to know there's snow on the mountains!

  • Hope you are feeling better soon!

  • So sorry to read that you are not feeling well. Praying that you soon feel better.

    • Thank you, Doris! This has been a nasty one, but I am beginning to feel more human again!

  • Said a prayer for you, Janet.

    We had some rain as well, but as you know, we need so much more.

  • Hope you are better soon! I had that bug and thought I'd die. I still cough a little at night and it has been almost 6 weeks! I wonder if there are any heron chicks or if they've already fledged...

    • Thanks, Val -- it is a nasty one! I think I'm on the road to mending now, but I haven't been away from home for 10 days except for food -- not even to see if there are heron chicks, which would be about 10 miles away! I hope to do that pretty soon, but today is still pretty gray and damp.

  • So sorry you have been ill. Sure praying you will feel much better soon.

    • Thanks, Char -- I'm feeling better today, but still am staying indoors and away from too many people!

  • feel better soon Janet...these spring colds are the pits. Eat some horse radish, I swear it works and doesn't taste near as nasty as some of the ovtc cold meds.

  • I hope the medication is fixing you up! Summer colds are the worse. I'm glad you got a tiny bit of rain. I hope more will come! peace always

  • So sorry you have felt so horrible health wise. I am glad you are feeling better now.

    • Thank you, Zakiah! I do feel human again! I'm still tiring easily, and coughing more than I like, but otherwise I am feeling much better.
