I’m trying to decide if I have a mild case of flu, or whether I’ve just had too much exercise and a cold front has come in.
\nElegante Mother and I got flu shots on Wednesday morning. In the past, they’ve never bothered me. My arm felt a tiny bit heavy last night, but I figured it was most likely due to the gardening I’d been doing.
\nIn all fairness, I’ve led a very sedentary life lately. Then, the Dragon Lady needed a stand in, so I rose to the challenge. I led exercise on Monday and Wednesday, and on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, I spent the afternoons cleaning out the gardens and getting a little raking done. This morning I moved about 650 pounds of bird seed into the winter bins.
\nA cold front has moved in, so I got that gardening done just in the nick of time. It’s been gray all day, and now is so dark that the sun must have decided to go down a couple of hours early. We’ve had a fitful rain, and are expecting snow showers this evening.
\nSo….am I sick, or am I responding to unusual exercise, coupled with a major drop in temperature? Darned if I know. All I can do is wait it out.
\nI think I’ll collect the cat and a quilt and go sit in the recliner for a bit. He won’t mind, and I’ll enjoy his warmth. Maybe I’ll take a book with me, just in case I can keep my eyes open.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
