It's the end of November and all the Fall and Thanksgiving stuff must be packed away. But I woke up today stiffer and as sore, both arms, as the day I fell. Took a hot shower, an antihistamine to deal with my cough----I literally coughed all night---and spent some quality couch time and I'm feeling a bit better. My arms are less stiff, but I'm still coughing enough to make it into the final act of Camille.
Mac brought me down a tub that I store most of the stuff in and I'm on my way, whisking about doing my imitation of a one-armed paper hanger.
Christmas is coming and I must not be stopped or slowed by mere human frailty.

When does your air conditioner go out? When temperatures are consistently in the upper 80's that's when, of course. We're luck... -

There is nothing more irritating that a cough that just will not go away - hope it soon gets better.
ReplyDeleteThat's the spirit! Christmas is coming and we must rise up to meet it, no matter what!
ReplyDeleteOh, I do ache for you.
ReplyDeleteDon't overdo it, the aches are telling you to slow down and take it easy, everything in moderation.
ReplyDeleteYou might need a few more days of rest to get all the way better:)
ReplyDeleteHope you are well enough to enjoy the decorating!
ReplyDeleteDo take care ...
ReplyDeletePerhaps you may need a few more quiet days?
Having said that sometimes there may be no stopping you!
All the best Jan
Take care of yourself Janet.
ReplyDeleteIcy Hot is a cream we rub on our sore arms and backs. It takes away the pain. Hope you get better soon. Looking forward to seeing your Christmas decor.
ReplyDeleteYou MUST NOT be stopped! If you can't be stopped, can you at least slow down a little? Take care! xx
ReplyDeletei am sure that you will be perfectly fine before Christmas and will do all necessary jobs related to it with your own precious hands dear.
ReplyDeletetake good care of your arms and stay positive
How about directing Mac from your armchair with your feet up. Do take it easy for a few days. Hopefully you will feel better soon :) B x
ReplyDeleteI am bothered by a cough that often disturbs me during the night so I know how you feel - don't push yourself too hard though it doesn't matter if all the jobs are not completed.
ReplyDeleteI think you need a day of pampering, perhaps a gentle massage for your poor arms, followed by a soak in the bath with a good book to read, and either a steaming mug of hot chocolate or a glass of wine, depending on the time of day. Before going to bed, have a hot drink with lots of honey stirred in - that might help soothe your cough.
ReplyDeleteWish you all the best! :)
