Good morning!
Bright & sunny
I haven’t been on here for a week or so as I’ve been ill -
3 or 4 weeks ago I felt a bit tired & week, in fact I got back under the duvet a couple of times and slept in the afternoon
Then gradually I became worse - still weak & tired, feeling shivery & cold, not much appetite
I managed a few trips to the shops but about a week ago I became worse - really cold, even wearing down slippers, fleece pants, fleece sweater, down body warmer
I put the heating on high but even though I could feel it was hot, I still felt cold, so I turned off the heating and got under the duvet for a day, still wearing all my warm clothes
I’d picked up a urine infection as well, very tender & painful when I peed, which, unfortunately, was much more often than usual
Phoned the doc and got through fairly quickly, who prescribed antibiotics
I’m about halfway through the course, and feel better, but still a bit shivery & shaky
Fortunately thanks to the Lockdown and various other forecasts of shortages, price increases, and other doom & gloom I have plenty of food in - the freezer was full and loads of cans & packets & dried milk so I’ve been eating reasonably well, even though I didn’t have much of an appetite sometimes
A side effect of this is that the place is a tip - no serious cleaning, lots of stuff shoved in corners that should really be packed away properly, dirty washing - at one point I’d worn the same clothes for about 3 days continuously before I managed a shower
I tried reading but couldn’t concentrate, so I’ve spent my time sleeping, & watching daytime TV & YouTube videos on my hobbies and anything else vaguely interesting that YT presented to me
I watched the news about the storms & flooding, we seem to have escaped most of it - rain last night but nothing exceptional
And that’s my news - hope you’re all feeling better than me
