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...

I'm glad to hear that you're both starting to feel better, though that flu sounds like it was rough! It's great that the COVID test came back negative, but I can imagine how exhausting that two-week recovery must've been. Hopefully, that lingering cough clears up soon. Thanks for the update! I just shared a new post; let me know what you think. Have a lovely weekend ahead.
Sorry to read you've both been ill with the flu - people often say they've got the flu when it's just a cold, real flu is really debilitating! Keep warm and well, bless you both x
Keeping in prayer...and yes, sickness is going around. I am glad to know you are feeling better. Have a beautiful day my friend.
Donna, thank you for your prayers for the fires, it is devastating. I feel so saddened for the people down south, no homes, evacuations, and deaths. I love the angel picture. So sorry you and Larry have been sick. Those coughs can last a long time afterwards. A cute picture of Sloane and her cousin. And a delightful picture of the friends now and then. I will pass that on to my best friends, who I've known for 50 years. You did a nice job on the hot pad. Too bad that happened to you while crocheting, but it still looks very nice. And your breakfast looks delicious. Take care, and feel better.

Sure hoping that you both are feeling much better....the flu symptoms can sometimes linger for a good while after the fever stops. take care! That Sloan is certainly a cutie and her little cousin is a cutie as well. I haven't had breakfast YET this morning, I think I'll grab something off of your post. All of this food looks so yummy. Have a Blessed Sunday.
I was wondering where you were. Sorry to hear about the flu, it seems to last quite a while so take it easy and hopefully normal life will be restored soon.
Donna, so glad you are back and feeling better. I have said many times how precious Sloane is, and now we see an adorable boy cousin. I only had boys, so I know them, and always wished for a girl. while you were sick we spent those two weeks with Beau sick and ended up in ER to the tune of 1500.00 which made ME sick and then day before yesterday a 225.00 vet visit for infected ear.. Dogs cost as much or maybe more than we do and also he is my child and stress of him being sick was bad... thank you for your suggestion on my blog this morning and i have learned a lot while researching it
Glad to hear you both a feeling and getting better. It's tough to be sick especially in the winter. I haven't been sick but I fell down a few weeks ago and still feeling pain in the right leg. It's feeling better and I am thankful for that. Take care!
I'm sorry you've both been so sick! Thankful things are looking better though.
The fake rhino horns would be a great use for that technology.
I used to make those hot pads and I remember how hard it was to get them off the loom and finish them.
Guess what? I got the air fryer you have and that you recommended to me. We are loving it!
I'm so sorry to hear you and Larry had flu, and I'm not surprised it completely wiped you out. Last time I had flu - and first time too as I don't think I ever had flu before - was in December 2022, and it took about a month to be completely back to "normal".
I can't get over how cute Sloane is looking with that dress and matching socks and bow! So sweet! xxx
