I'm feeling much better now, thank you everyone...well, insofar as the bug thing has gone. Whilst husband didn't catch my D&V bug, he has now got a very sneezy cold - he says he doesn't feel ill at all, but is sneezing violently and often. He is a bit indiscriminate about where he sneezes, so it's a bit hard trying to dodge all his germs 😒. I haven't had a cold in ages but have woken up this morning with bit of a sore throat and stuffed up nose. I hope it doesn't get any worse, colds always seem to go to my chest, with a cough that lasts ages. We have plenty of honey, lemon juice and ginger, plus soluble aspirin and paracetamol, so self dosing and staying in the warm will be all we're doing for the next few days.
From the weekend onwards it's forecast to be warmer - and about time too, I've been feeling the cold these past few days, and I hate feeling cold. It's a newish thing for me - for several years, all throughout my 50s, I had hot flushes and night sweats, I almost never felt the cold. Along with the warmer weather forecast though, comes cloud, rain and strong winds. Can't win at the moment. Well, however cold and/or wet it seems here, at least we haven't had -40 deg, heavy snow or floods, so we're actually really lucky to live in a temperate climate country and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
I know we can't do anything about the weather, just have to wait patiently for Spring and nicer weather to arrive. All I can do is keep thinking about the garden, watching to see what comes up and making plans for flowers, shrubs and veggies to grow. Can't wait to see what the apple tree in the middle of the front lawn is - eater or cooker. Doesn't really matter, I'll be happy with either.
I'm glad you're feeling better, finally. Hope your husband's sneezing doesn't develop into anything worse and you manage to dodge whatever it is! It's very wet and cold here, too. Mind you, better than knee-deep snow. The warmer weather can't come soon enough for me. I'm sick of looking like Michelin man every time I go out. I've got so many layers on! xx
ReplyDeleteOh, dear. There's a nasty coldy virus going the rounds here. I do hope it's not that and that it all goes away quickly. Self dosing as as good as it can get really. Stay warm and cosy and definitely no gardening!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have an apple tree in the garden - lucky you. xx
Thankfully you are over your bug, and hope you don't catch your husband's cold. Keep warm and taking your honey etc. and hope you keep the bugs away. Maybe some Glen 20 will help with the airborne germs!
ReplyDeleteI've got a very sneezy cold too. I don't feel ill at all but it's really annoying
ReplyDeleteIt might be worth your hubby doing a covid test. I've just tested positive and it was the constant sneezing that made me suspicious
DeleteI was lucky enough to go through menopause without the hot flashes, but as I age the cold seems to soak way down into my bones. Stay warm and I hope you don't get too bad a cold.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Get well soon! ☕️
