So what have I been doing? Not much. Last week turned cold, wet and chilly and sure enough, I caught a chill, a cold or *something* anyway.Ugh. I hate feeling like this. And the cold part isn't too bad except for sneezing. It's the cough that gets to me. I don't think my dr. will be in today, so I have to wait until tomorrow. *sighs*

Anyhoo, Monday I did laundry. Long overdue, because I have to line dry things. *If* I can manage it, I might have a dryer this winter. Just because I love clean, warm sheets, lol.

Tuesday was errand day, so I went into Hastings and paid bills (gas, lights and car insurance) so I should be caught up for this month. I also got special vet food my old gal Lucky and went to the Evil Empire to faff around. Picked up some necessary things, and went a few other places as well.

Yesterday was spent catching up on things here at home. I was going to work outside but I felt to chilled to do so. I made the Chicken-Barley Chili, which is yummy! Also, I had most of the things on hand already, which was a big plus too. [g] Plus, I wrote more for the bigbang. :)

Today I plan to go through some of the stuff in the garage so I can hopefully get the car inside *soon*. This is a priority, believe me.

And for those of you who are musically inclined and might want to save things in musical notation form, there is this free software:

I haven't used it personally but it looks easy to work with. Maybe one day?

I think I have a cold. Ugh. Not a full-out one, but just enough of a sore throat and sneezing to make me feel miserable. *sighs*

As for the weather, it is cold and chilly and just plain icky out.

Tomorrow I may or may not run errands since it is supposed to be nice -- and what better way to celebrate the holidays than by mixing and spreading cold germs? [Ok, yes I know -- so not funny.] But I have no one to send on errands and I want to be sure and get a few more things that simply are not available here. So, *if* the weather warms up *at all*, there will be errands.

I stayed inside to see if I could keep my cold from getting worse. Some better. Experimented w/new chili recipe; not too bad. Saved the rest for tomorrow. Must get mail, bread, noms and misc. tomorrow though. Hopefully I will be in and out just long enough to avoid possibly getting my cold any worse.

The weather is still bad (extremely dense fog), and there is talk of a storm this weekend.

Oh Great

When I hauled the dumpsters out this morning, I think I managed to get a cold. Yeah, just that quick. Only a very few minutes, probably was less than five and now -- ick. It sure feels like one is starting anyway because I am sneezing like crazy. Damn.

ETA: I drank some tomato soup earlier, and the store had a sale on orange juice. That should help. I *hope*. Also, I got my gas bill today. The horror, the horror... ($260, which is humongous for me.) Hopefully the next one will be less so.

Oh goodie, I think I have a cold. (I blame the weather you know.) So it looks like it's time for the chicken soup and chili cure. Not together but when I am out of one, I fix the other. My fault for not having soup more often though.

Talked to C. last night about the Beast of Gevaudan (History channel special) and we will undoubtedly continue our discussion tonight. [I have always been fascinated by were-beings of all sorts.]

Now it is time for a nap; maybe I can get some writing done when I wake up.
