Sick...again

I'm certainly convinced that something is afoot. After returning from a few days rest and relaxation in Mesa, the sore throat began, then the tight, phlegmy chest, hacking cough, fever and headache. Jeez. This is getting ridiculous.
Two days on the couch (sorry for the lack of fun during your visit, TC) and every pharmaceutical in the cabinet later and I'm still feeling crap.
So in between bouts of sweating I've decided to deep-clean the house (in case there's something afoot in the cave here). Beautiful days outside and I spend most of them either couch-bound or in the office.
Oh, and I'm feeling very sorry for myself.

Spring???

Well, it's March. We have very little snow and are having 50+ degree days. Weird weather, but nice to get outside in shirtsleves. The Gardiner dust bowl is in full swing - no snow cover to keep the dust down. I think I'm going to suggest that our friends here splurge on a load of gravel to cover some of the dirt in the parking areas on our road. We'll see how that goes.

I'm on my "shift" taking care of Ruffers. Has not been very fun to tell the truth. He's been pooing in the house and I've spent more time cleaning carpets in the past week than anything else. The good news is, I think I've tracked down the source - he's raiding the cat food when left alone at home. He's fine when spending the day in my yard and nights at my house. The cat food is getting put away when Ruffers has to be home alone (sorry to Lucy the cat!)

Add to that I'm having issues with my computer suddenly deciding to go blue screen of death on me on a regular basis, and it's been an interesting week. The darn thing is just out of warranty, of course.

Been doing a ton of schoolwork and work-work as well, so super busy. And not much of a social life. The nasty cold/flu/strep crap looks like it's finally clearing up so that's a plus.
