I have bronchitis and a sinus infection. Despite medications since Friday night, I am not up to posting anything exciting. I can't remember the last time I stayed in bed so long, other than giving birth to my kids.
I will post in a few days, when I hope to be feeling better. I can't breath too well, and despite cough syrup from the pharmacy, I am still coughing.
Also, I don't do well with drugs. They make me sick. So....on top of being sick, the drugs make me sick. In this case, I didn't have a choice. I got to the doctor before pneumonia set in. I keep taking my temperature also. It's been about 98.8. I can't remember a day when I did have fever. I've never been this sick.
Take care.

Preparing
Although wood splitting took a halt, until we repair the chainsaw blade, I have been busy preparing crafts for winter projects.
I have started cutting circles from leftover scrap material. These are mostly from old sheets and pillow cases. These will be later sewn into yo-yo's for other gifts or for my home.
I also volunteered to help crochet and knit scarves for this winter's homeless. I am getting a box ready, but need to fill it with a few more. I may need help from the girls to fill the box.
Our garden is finished. The Swiss chard is being consumed by something. I have no idea, but whatever it is, it sure likes my Swiss chard. I have failed to bring in my rosemary. I may try to even though we've had a few frosts here already.
The wood burning stove has been cleaned and we have brought wood in. Today is a good day to start it up, as the temperature in my house is very cold.
I haven't felt like doing much baking lately. I've been sick for over 3 weeks now. I finally booked myself a dreaded doctor appointment today. I sure hope it's worth the time and money spent. I'm just tired of not getting better. Last night my ear hurt. I haven't had an ear infection in years, and it sure felt like it.
