I can't complain about cold when it is going to be in the low 70's with winds from the north. It was -4 degrees at my Cape Cod home this morning. I checked the thermostat and the heat was holding thank goodness. Now we are a bit worried about Mike's place as no one is there while the bathroom is being redone. Hopefully the plumber who is doing the work had the foresight to leave the heat on high enough so the pipes are okay.

I did not take the Topamax last night as I have yoga this morning and there was no way I could do a downward dog or anything similar with the dizziness I had yesterday. I will probably resume it tonight but if it doesn't recede in a few days I will have to give up on it. I really felt lousy yesterday until about 3-4. I definitely wasn't hungry but I also felt like crap. Not worth it.

We aren't sure what the plan will be today. It is likely too cool to go to the beach though sometimes the pool is an option if the wind is blocked. We shall see.

Have a superb Saturday!

I had a really nice evening last night, drinking wine, eating charcuterie, laughing with friends... But today I wake up with a cold. I thought it was coming on. Yesterday I was sneezing a bit, tickle in the back of the throat etc. I hoped it was from the extreme dryness. Now, cough, congestion, runny eyes and nose...Oh well. I don't have to push through anything today, I can stay home, drink tea, nap, and have DH bring me treats if needed. So not the worst thing in the world.

Warm up on the way here. Maybe 30 degrees soon! Not that I'm going anywhere :)

Sorry you have a cold - you must pick them up from school? I rarely get sick - only 3 times in the last 3 years and 2 of them were COVID where I knew exactly who I got it from.

Grateful for upper 30's and sunny. No wind makes it even better ! Sadie's play date was rained out earlier this week and we made it up today. She and Luke are in love !

My Eufy vacuum tried to eat a cord today. The shrill notification cued me in time to prevent disaster.

I was finally sucked in to Oprah's gummies on FB. I could stand to lose 10 pounds by my 50th HS reunion in June.
