A Winter's Saturday

I woke up this morning knowing that once again I have been hit by that bug that’s been trying to take me down. I’m sure it got me while I was back at work last night.

While standing on a dead game (where there were no players), my boss approached me for a conversation about the air filtration system. After professional testing the company was advised that it’s become necessary to do a thorough cleaning. There must be something bad in there.

I can attest to that just by how I’m getting sick every time I go in to work lately.

Well, I’m up and moving around and getting things done anyway. I’ve taken a couple caplets of cold medication, always careful that medicines I take are safe for me by not setting off any diseased cravings, seem to be holding down most of the symptoms. The news told me that a couple off our major freeways have been closed but I’m moving through the coziness indoors, watching snow continue to fall through my kitchen window.

We’ve accumulated a few inches on the ground and it’s absolutely beautiful outside.

There were calls to return today. One to an Al-Anon member who knows I’m interested in taking over her Public Relations commitment. Since she is also a health care worker she recommended to me a homeopathic remedy that can help me stay healthy by building up my immune system.

Calling my friend Laney, she also recommended the same product. When we hear the same thing from two separate people on the same day the message becomes worth listening to. So I’ll be going to the vitamin store to shop on my way to work today.

The cats are in the window, mesmerized by falling flakes. I’m gracefully getting through the agenda of my day, taking care of tasks that need be done before I go to work. I made some chicken and rice soup with a cup of hot chocolate. Life is good.

That’s all I got to share today.

Every day matters.
