Hey everyone. Are you all surviving the wintry blast most of north america is getting? We have had a goodly amount of snow and the promise of more on the way; frigidy temperatures that dove well below the zero mark – an unusual feat for those of us sheltered along the shores of Lake Michigan; a couple of snow days that made my children sing; and Super Sunday… As you can see it has been an eventful few days here at the Christensen Huis!
Sunday EVERYTHING was cancelled – and I mean everything, from church services to Super Bowl parties – even knitting super bowl parties. With visibilities of less than zero, all of West Michigan hunkered down in their homes to stay warm and cozy. And then it hit….
By Sunday night I was not feeling well – I could not put my finger on it, but I just did not feel great. This was not the harbinger of something wonderful – rather the foreboding of what was to come. I came down with the flu – I will refrain from the gruesome details – suffice it to say that on Wednesday morning when I pulled my feeble body from bed to get to the office, there were 10 less pounds of me. I was so miserable I could not even knit! I am telling you – it was not a pretty sight – no knitting, it has to be really bad!!
Wednesday the schools determined that the kids could again venture out to classes again – and wonder of all wonders, the SUN came out! By the time I left work yesterday afternoon – it was a balmy 20 degrees outside! We are having a virtual heat wave here!!
More snow is on the horizon for the weekend, and still cold temperatures – but the weather man says no more frigidy coldness like we had.
Watch for pictures of my socks for Amanda’s Bloomin’ Feet Swap – they are still coming along beautifully! I promise to get some pics posted this weekend.
Gotta fly now – have an awesome day all!
Take care of you and get to feeling better soon. I hear a warm front is coming…hopefully
so sorry to hear you’ve been so sick! i hope you are on the mend and aren’t pushing yourself too hard by going back to work already!
hope you feel better soon.
Get better. Kat! WE were delighted as well to finally see some temperatures above 10! Enjoy your weekend, and rest, rest, rest.
So sorry to hear you have not been well. Not a fun way to lose weight, eh?
I hope you feeling a bit better now 🙂
Hope you are feeling much better now! I’ve had it with the cold already (do you ever feel like your fingers are too cold to knit?) and can’t wait for spring!
Sweetie, I am in the same boat. How did you get back to work so soon. I’m on day 5, and just starting to feel human again. Be careful, this thing will bite you if you don’t pamper yourself.
