Tuesday Truth 5/1/18

I am very, very, very sorry indeed to not have a new bit from Cole and Gina for you again this week. I know it’s been a few weeks since you saw anything new. I have reasons…

The move is complete. That amazes me. About 2.5 weeks ago I think I got the flu again. My temp was 101.8 and I had the usual chills and body aches. But after a few days I felt a lot better. That was a huge relief, considering that I was packing for the move to the storage unit. But then the fever was back, and even higher, and my chest burned. Then when I drew a deep breath I felt like I was being stabbed in the back. I went to the doc and after a chest Xray and a blood test she told me I had pneumonia. Again? I asked. I just had that in December! Yes, again. But last time it was viral pneumonia and this was bacterial pneumonia. She gave me a prescription for an antibiotic and told me to rest.

Rest. When I still needed to pack and clean the old place? Right.

Somehow I did manage to get everything done. It wasn’t easy. I honestly don’t know how I did it. All that carrying things down three flights, and scrubbing, and trying to breathe? Amazing. I am still paying for it, but I did get through a full day of work yesterday and today. This weekend I am doing NOTHING. Nothing except sleep, knit and write. I promise a new snip next Tuesday.

Meanwhile, I found new inspirations for Cole. I can’t decide which I like better. What do you think?
