Feb. 8th, 2010 03:10 pmI have survived the cold from hell, almost. My voice is back, and the cough is no longer sounding as if I were trying to gak up a lung. I see no great advantage to the warming comfort of Thera-flu.
I wish I could remember the rap a couple of my 2nd graders did for sharing this morning. They are Saints fans and did a bit about the Colts. Very cute.
Two nights in a row Mother managed to not take her meds. She did however turn off the alarm on the pill minder box, carry it into her bedroom, and remember to take the two pills I leave sitting out on the bathroom counter for her. She also does not understand why she is now taking a pill at 2 in the afternoon. Eileen is with her now, for an MRI, and hopefully explaining all of this to Mother in nurse talk.
I am alone in the house. I could run naked through all the rooms if I wanted. If it were summer, I might even consider it. But being a cold and snowy day, I shan't.
Pat came over this morning and I am not so efficient with my snow clearing technique I was back in the house by 6:48. Pretty soon I'll be so good I'll be done before I start. Pat was going to stop by this afternoon on his way home from work to help me clear again, but I don't feel like it. He will stop by tomorrow morning. I expect tomorrow will not be so easy as today because of the increase in wind velocity that is expected tonight. Price Lab school dismissed early today, I heard. We did not. I fully expect to have a late start tomorrow, perhaps even another snow day, if the weather behaves as is forecast. It wasn't too bad outside this morning or at noon. I asked Ron, the custodian if he wanted me to find any wet spots in the halls for him to mop up. He said no, he'd try to find them before I fell. Mr. Y teacher said he noticed my absence on Friday. I said I was sick. He'll keep a spot for me.
Another snow storm, same song thirty-seventh verse.
