Day 1 age 47

I woke up feeling “older” today. It could be the fever that I can’t seem to shake, or maybe it was the stiff neck that has plagued me since I got sick. Either way, I felt tired, achy and old. Bah!
The phone rang and it was my Australian friends to wish me a Happy Birthday! Great to hear their voices. It always amazes me how they can sound like they are next door when they are on the other side of the world!
Since I have been doing NOTHING for a few days, I decided that today I needed to shower and put on actual clothes! I’ve been living in my jammies for days and well, let’s face it, after a while, you start looking downright silly in pajama’s with kitty cats and puppy dogs on them. So, I hit the shower and scrubbed myself off and dressed in warm clothes. But I’m still freezing, (due to the fever) so I guess the blanket will be coming out to my chair to keep me warm.
After showering I had an easy breakfast and then looked at the kitchen and realized that either I had to do a little cleaning, or the crumbs would take over.
Then I did grown up stuff, like paid bills, went through the mail and started some laundry. I’ve got most everything under control now, except the laundry, which I will work on over the course of the day.

Anyone see “The Apprentice last night? I’m so glad Clay finally went home. He seemed like a nice enough guy, but was so hyper and critical, and that would have driven me nuts!

Fritz gets his stitches out today! His neck looks good and I think it will heal up well.

We had snow flurries this morning, off and on for about an hour. No accumulation, but the flurries looked very pretty swirling around the yard. Is winter around the corner? If it is, I’d better kick this cold soon, ski season is nearly upon us!
