Apologies
It's been a week...
I apologize for not getting anything written this week.
There are several nasty bugs going around and I’ve had one of them. Woke up feeling great and by lunch time had to leave work.
And this weekend we might have a blizzard, depending on how far south the system pushes. The National Weather Service is certain of it reaching the city an hour north of us, but still iffy on if Sioux Falls gets just snow or lots of snow with blizzard.
How sick and distracted was I? I started rewatching One Upon a Time… in Hollywood, and fell asleep before that epic fantasy ending (no spoilers here if you haven’t seen it.) It’s a movie that I — and, I suspect, any person who grew up in or lived for any time in L.A. — can watch over and over. You catch some piece of your life’s memorabilia in just about every scene or background radio played. And I fell asleep. Now that’s sick.
Plus, I lose my taste for coffee (heresy, anathema, hard to find strong enough words) when I’m ill, so I had a wretched headache to go with my bug.
And, sin of sins, I wasn’t up to walking the dogs for a couple of days. The eyes they’re making at me…
Stay safe if you’re in the blizzard’s path. I hope to write again soon.


You poor thing!
Oh man! I’m so sorry that you succumbed to the little murderous virus bugs. They’ll knock elders for a loop. Here’s to everyone making a quick return to invigorated health!
It made the rounds here about a month ago. It put Audrey down for the count. Strangely, I began to get ill, feeling the nausea only once. Then, as soon as I felt the first wave of sickness, it was gone. I’m thinking Audrey’s immediate prayers may have worked. The worry she felt was evident in her eyes when she saw it coming my way. I’m thinking the meds I take for my back actually worked against the virus where it came to making one sick.
God works in mysterious ways!
