Violet is still ... under the weather. Unwell. I thought I heard her say she was feeling "wretched" this morning when she came in from work. I'm sure she didn't mean it.
I am getting worried about her eating habits, though. She keeps picking at those candy dishes she has laid out all over the place. And her breath, well, it smells a little, weird. I keep trying to get really close to determine the various notes, but every time she starts coughing and wheezing and getting all drippy.
Yep. Must be those Ricola candies she's constantly eating.
I think I'll take them away from her, one by one.
Abby is here to help you, my pet.
feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you Char. Welcome. I saw I had a new follower - will have to check out the rest of your blog later, lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteHi. just visited your site and have decided to follow it..i like the way you write and it interests me to know how a Canadian woman thinks and feels about this and that..i like the pictures too
ReplyDeleteWell, thank you deandean. I'm glad you like. (and this way I can't be spreading my germs!)
ReplyDeleteGet well soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you LGS. This is turning into a "man flu"
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon and I hope Anton Piek doesn't show up in your fevrish dreams. His images do have that sort of quality, but then I was raised with them and I probably don't appreciate them as much as you do. When I was a child, I was scared of them. When I grew up, my mother thought I liked him, because he was Dutch and bought me articles with his prints on them. Wrong choice, Mom!
ReplyDeleteGet thee to a doctor forthwith! (If you haven't already) My friend went around like you for weeks, barely dragging herself around, and when I finally persuaded her to see her doctor, she had walking pneumonia!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I could eat Ricola like candy, especially the lemon mint.
As Susan said - DOCTOR NOW and get yourself checked out, if it is a bacterial infection the sooner treated the soomer gone. Hot water with lemon and ginger in is a good cold busting drink
ReplyDeleteHoping that you are soon fighting fit, lots of healing hugs being sent.

This particular strain of cold is very virulent. I had it a couple of months ago, and it took forever to get rid of it. You might want to get to the doc, as others have suggested. My brother had it, and it turned into bronchitis. We don't want that now, do we?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Susan. Don finally went to a doctor after his nasties held on for weeks, and he had a sinus infection. Now, after antibiotic, he feels great.
ReplyDeleteIrene: That is so funny. We don't often appreciate the art we grew up with do we? I personally do not like Krieghoff. My mother found a print once a couple of years after I returned from Holland and gave it to me for Christmas. I was so touched that she recognized it and remembered I had liked him. I bring it out every winter, although it does not go with anything else in my house. I prefer looking at the books.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, no fevered nightmares.
Thank you, all.
ReplyDeleteThat is a long time to feel ill - and you've still been working?? Yes, I agree with everyone else: time for the doctor!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. I have a touch of it myself. Not nice.
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain, she says, coughing and wheezing and blowing her nose. And now, as the cold was slowly disappearing, I fear I've caught another. Damn.
ReplyDeleteget well soon, xx
