Flu...Fires, and Food




Good morning, friends...oh my goodness!  It's been a long while since I've been able to post.  Larry and I both have had a good case of the flu.  I took a covid test but, it was negative.  I think that was a good thing though... Started out with a headache and really lethargic...then, waking up with a sore throat...some low-grade fever and then finally, a cough.  Averaged being sick...about two weeks.  We both are now better but with a lingering cough.  But nothing like it was.  I think we're going to make it.





Praying for those poor people in California!  Texas is helping as are other states and I believe Canada is, as well... I hope those Angels can put those fires out soon!  16 are now dead...heartbreaking!!  I also pray that there's a thorough investigation into where all the funds have gone to and why!  DEI before funding the Fire Departments and Police???  I don't think so...
190,000 people displaced now, and that number is steadily growing.
God help them...









I hope this is true!





We went out to eat breakfast sometime before we became ill.  The price was really reasonable, as you can see in the next photo.










I had made a 10" hot pad...was cruising along crocheting the edges...the last row simply slipped off the loom...and I tried everything to get the loops back on to the frame!!!  So, I hooked together what I could and will worry about redoing it later...I was heartsick!  So much work!  Larry gave me a good idea though...I'll try looping a rubber band onto the ends so it can't pull off the frame.  We'll see if it works...soon...I'm not ready to pull it all out yet...sigh.






Someone explain how this is fair.  This is a photo of some women from the 1970's... then now.  I know our bodies are preparing for "the final event" but...lol
I'm still fighting it...although, since I've been ill, I put back on at least 5 pounds!  Need to get back to my walking!





And what's a post without Sloane?  Her cousin Arlis is all boy! lol

Well, I made this one a little shorter.  I've got things to catch up on and sitting in front of the computer won't get it done.
Praying you all are well and safe!  So, until next time...
