Thought of the day

You may or may not have noticed that I didn't update my blog last week. For the sake of my ego, we will assume you did, and that you've been on the edge of your seat waiting for my return.

Well, I caught a truly miserable bug. I have a strong suspicion it was my old friend "Jonah" (because it rhymes with Corona ... virus), though I didn't get tested to confirm it officially.

The last time I had Jonah over for an extended stay, I was so freakin' exhausted, had headaches galore, and lost some of my sense of taste.
Well, that is exactly what’s been going on for the last week.
I didn't go to medical school or even play a doctor on TV, but it’s safe to say I am comfortable with that diagnosis.

Today is the first day I made it past noon without a nap, so I am calling it progress.

Some other news while I was away:

• Lucy went to one of Hayden's softball games. It was a little overwhelming for my baby basset, and she was done after one game. 

• We herded cats for a friend for a few days.
• We lost power for two days because of a gnarly windstorm.
• The same gnarly windstorm blew my sister-in-law's gate open, and her dog escaped. I just happened to be on the road where the dog was running around, so I saved her. Yay me! 
• Another reason I think I had Jonah is that I left the gas hose attached to my car and drove away. Fortunately, it was one of those pumps that had a safety feature and the hose detached with minimal damage. 

Hope you are well.

Talk to you soon.

I will persevere.
I will keep moving forward.
I will be the stream.
