It is a week since I last posted here but it feels like
months ago. My body has been fighting
something, and throwing chills, headaches, shortness of breath, and utter
exhaustion at me.
I thought it might have been Covid, but the Rapid Antigen Test
came back as negative so I presume I have simply picked up a bug of some sort
somewhere.
Thankfully, I am on the mend again. I still tire easily and everything takes a
lot of effort, but any improvement is welcome!
Winter has arrived with lots of rain this last week. This morning we had 100% humidity and a thick
blanket of fog sitting over the city – one of the joys of living on
predominately swampy land beside a river.
However, it cleared by lunchtime and we had some blue sky
and sunshine before the clouds descended again and brought another round of
rain.
Mittens and Millie are not impressed by rain. They sit at the door and glare at it, before
venturing out to do what they need to do (which lately has been bringing lots
of mice back into the house).
Then, Cat Duties fulfilled, they will curl up in a nice warm
spot and sleep off their adventures.
Have a happy week, my dear friends,
Margaret 😊
My Angel used to love going out in the rain as long as it wasn't too heavy. Now I have Lola, and the law here says cats are to be kept inside or restrained to their own yards. I don't have a yard, so she lives inside.
ReplyDeleteI have mousers too. Unfortunately, they like to leave them in strange places like my shoe.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you've been poorly - hope things continue to improve.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon...just take it easy and let your body get back to normal.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you’re recovering, Margaret. The flu has been making the rounds here, making people think they had Covid of course. If it’s not one thing…
ReplyDeleteSo sorry...
ReplyDeleteThink those rapid tests, can be unreliable. It surely sounds like "Damncovid."
Whatever, keep resting. Your body has been through a *war,* and needs rest to recoup!!!!
Lots of gentle hugs...

Glad you´re on the way up again!!! Here we go down with the temps again alas.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're not well Margaret, it's certainly a year of bugs, isn't it! I've close friends who have been knocked absolutely flat by something that sounds just like what you have had, and after a number of RAT tests the doctor even got a ?CPE? test - which was also negative. So it was this flu, not Covid, but very, very nasty. Give yourself time to snooze with Mittens and Milly.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Virginia
I'm sorry you've been unwell. Take good care of yourself and get lots of rest. Hopefully soon you'll have more energy. It's hard when you just don't have it.
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret- good to hear you arr on the mend after being unwell- nothing worse. Cold and windy here- down to 10 Deg C to-night...we need to stay rugged up all the time. I like your new Introduction photo- looks very good. Best Wishes. KEV. (Sydney- Australia).
ReplyDeleteI hope you have more sunshine than rain and get strong fast!
ReplyDeleteI am really sorry to hear that you have not been feeling well, I do hope you are able to rest and recuperate as you need as you get better. I am with your cats about the rain I much prefer to be indoors especially when the temperatures are low too.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you are very quickly restored to full health.
