A Thought for Today
It seems to me the others parts
contributing to calendars have too little quiet. Though winter can
admittedly contain too much.
Dear Diary,
I didn’t get a flu shot this year, there weren’t enough to go around. Of
course since I have never ever had a vaccination against whatever winter
virus was poised for attack – though from time to time I’ve thought of
it – that’s even less than a lame excuse for finally catching the bug.
It’s day fourteen and counting of being flat on my back with too much
orange juice, chicken soup, vitamin C popping and too little energy and
time awake to do much of anything productive.
Down time is something I’ve never been able to handle well but after the
first few days of realizing that I have to sweat it out (not just a
metaphor) I’ve relaxed a bit knowing that fighting the flu is no way to
overcome it.
Slugging this bug is the most important thing right now and since that
is up to the whim of time all I can do is try to co-operate by helping
to push it along by staying flat while feverish. Weird, feeling well and
happy but lacking mental and physical energy.
Tempus fidget.
