Happiest of Fridays to you

I didn't run away. I've been busy cramming everything in, so I could have a day off. One project plan, three appointments, a consult, a specialty service visit, four phone calls, one patient portal enrollment, one transferred patient and a grand rounds presentation.

So today, I escaped.The sun came out after what seemed like weeks of clouds and rain. I found my sunglasses and wore them.What a day it was!

I visited friends I had not seen in a long time. I shopped and went out for breakfast, lunch and dinner, which meant no dishes for me to wash ALL DAY. It was like being on vacation at a hotel without leaving.

I also celebrated another birthday this week. It was fun. Health IS wealth, and I feel like a millionaire now that I am almost done with my antibiotics (from whatever URI I got around Thanksgiving.)

Hope you enjoy your weekend wherever you are!

More to come...

The joys of sinus headaches

And yes, indeed, I do have a doozy, since the cold remainders are still hanging out in my upper respiratory system and sinuses. Laughing (or breathing just right) leads to coughing which leads to rattling the remaining junk...ugh!

Too many things to do today, so it's gotta go away.

Stay tuned...

Either will...

Or sheer luck (and scrupulous hand hygiene) kept me from getting sick so far this winter season. Now I am feeling the effects of a nasty upper respiratory infection that is trying to beat me up.

And now it's snowing...yet again. The flakes are beautiful but everything is getting covered. I'll never get anything done today, since the roads right now are a mess.

Back to vegetating and watching the flakes fall in the street light. Reminds me of the blizzards as a kid. Watching snowflakes fall can be very relaxing, as long as you have nowhere to go.

Stay tuned...
