catching my breath.

good morning.....

do you ever feel that when your health nosedives or takes a new direction you get the memo last?  are kept out of the loop?

that's how i feel.  some congestion, sinus pressure.....sneezing, achy, chilly, yucky.  at first i thought it's the normal congestion, but now that my chest has some tightness i think ohhhhhhhh.  ok, sigh. bummer drag dude.

finally drug my bones into the shower.  should have stayed there, moved in.  it's so warm.  eases achy joints, bones and muscles.  get out and all i think is well shoot now my head is c c c c old......this too passes every time.

moving on.  things will wait.  like it or not.  another day of lots of tea coming my way.  liquids help and have a calming balmy effect overall.  i fell asleep in my recliner and couldn't wake up enough to move to my bed.  feel VERY VERY guilty about not  using my CPAP last night.  other than my trip to the mountains i've used my cpap religiously since january.  does a cold/flu trump cpap?  maybe, for a little bit. 

my home looks very nice.......but yes it has been neglected in some ways.  too much clothing, shoes, kitchen stuff......too much stuff in the garage.  gotta stay on track and do a little bit every day.  the whole of the home is very cozy, comfortable and pretty.  i like the infusion of colors added in since 2010.  i used to have some quiet greens......beiges.......all very subtle and hush hush.  but now you'll see jewel tones......lively yet still soft now rich colors.  it helps since this is what i see each and every day.  do i know i'm blessed to have what i have?  absolutely........but like any patient sometimes i want the circus to come to town........have a little adventure and wish for visitors.  expected ones though, not the kind that show up and bang on the door when your hair is wet and you're in pj's......

someone to come for tea.  to watch tv and talk, that would be nice.  naps are always allowed at Sparrow Cottage, there is always a stash of pillows and throws nearby to lean on and lie beneath.  a very relaxed atmosphere.  i'm so tired.........how are you this quiet Monday?
