Saturday Rolls Around, Again!

Days seem to follow one after the other!  I will say that this week it has been hard to know which day it is…lack of routine, I believe is the cause! I continue to see improvement in how I feel…but still can't say that I feel great.  Improvement seems to just bring on another problem.  Today I am having trouble with sinus drainage…a bit of a problem, since I am not to blow my nose and it is even hard to clear my throat.  I have pretty much had a Kleenex in my hand most of the day…not that I can do a lot with it. 

I had my Cottey College Alum Bookclub Zoom meeting this morning.  I mainly sat…talked very little and, at times had to hunt the mute button when I got to coughing.   But it it was interesting, as usual.  We are an eclectic group.  Today my friend since early childhood days, who I grew up with, went to church with, and, to elementary school, high school, and then to Cottey with, was able to attend our Zoom meeting again.  So it was good to see her.  

After our meeting, which always ends promptly at noon, I got my lunch ready.  I had thawed a Penne pasta bake that I had made and had ready in the freezer to pop in the oven.  While that baked, I made some homemade chocolate pudding.  I’m looking forward to that this evening, as it has had time to chill since this afternoon. 

The cooking and eating efforts tired me out so I took a little nap this afternoon.  I was awakened by an unusual sound…rain on the roof.  It hasn't rained here in a while.  It continues to lightly rain…nice to hear it.  I hope the earth and the flowers and plants and trees are enjoying a refreshing drink,  Also hoping that the rain settles some of the pollen that has been so thick in the air lately.

I guess I can say that I am improving every day, but that the improving has been a bit slow for my liking…oh, wait…that's right…I have trouble remembering that I am supposed to be a patient patient! I’ll keep trying to remember…but hopefully, while I try to remember to be patient, this feeling of not being well will end quickly!!! 😏

To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
