Malx, please get through this...Please...

I'm feeling better today, (I've been up all day). Yesterday I couldn't, got up a few times and had to go right back to bed (so I'm doing good now). Thank you Zalphon !!!

[Olen]

Glad to hear your kidneys weren't totally gone, dialysis is a real pain in the pipe. Get totally better soon.

Thanks Olen! And yeah, I don't want a shunt installed permanently - BLEAH !!

[Black Hand]

Aagh, 90% of our patients are dialysis transports, so I know that it's not fun. I wish you the best and hope it works out malx.

I have a stupid cold now! And my winter was going so well! Grr!!!

I know it's not nearly as bad as the kidneys going south, but I'm still feeling crummy. I hate it when my nose gets runny and stuffy.

EDIT: Now I'm paragraphs on Nyquil blur...

words and sedated are beginning to together...

*dizzy*

I need to go pass out for a couple hours.

ROFL !!! I hope you get feeling better. Run a washcloth under steaming hot water, wring it out, and lay it over your forehead and nose (cover your face with it), and lay down on your back till it cools.

It won't help your cold, but the burns on your hands and face will make you forget how miserable you felt.

Gack! I hate Nyquil, and not just because of its taste. That stuff gets me caught in between dreams and awake, so I'll continue to talk while I'm "asleep."

Drink lots of tea and when you sleep be sure your neck it covered. If you're feverish, you may want to try and sweat it out. It feels really gross cause you get all sweaty but it always knocks my fever down by the next day

[Olen]

I swear by chicken soup, though the dried stuff isn't as good. It clears the chest and tastes nice.

Hot toddy helps too, in moderation.

I'm currently trying to work out how to explain the thick smoke which is filling the flat to my flatmate... I burnt some frankincense to cover the stale smell that's been developing due to closed windows and didn't realise just how much smoke the stuff gives off. It's a bit foggy in here now.

Smells lovely though.

OK, so, I am now at the end of another winter storm here at my cloud top abode. School has been canceled for today due to the road conditions (icy, snowy, lots of people crashy), and it seems my hot water pipes are frozen. It hit roughly -10 degrees outside last night (Fahrenheit) so I'm not all that surprised, if not rather perplexed as to why the hot water chose to freeze over the cold water.

Winter is always so much fun.

[haute ecole rider]

Same thing here in Northern Illinois. Seventeen inches of snow. Now the snowing's done, but the wind is something else. It is creating lots of beautiful snow sculptures out there, and recovering driveways that have been snowblowed out. We are still under winter storm watch until three this afternoon.

Schools have been closed, and people in nonessential jobs have been advised to stay home today. Too easy to wander off the road and get lost.

I'm glad to be curled up at home with my toasty laptop and a pot of hot tea working on Julian's Anvil adventures.

[Acadian]

My goodness! I don't think my thermometer goes that low! We'll have to send you each a ring enchanted with resist frost!

Cold is relative I guess. I bet poor minque is freezing her kitties off too!

And I bet SubRosa is SubZero today also.

There is indeed a skim of ice on the surface of my outdoor fountain this morning. That should be gone by noon though with some nice desert sunshine. Mrs Acadian is visiting the children and grandchildren in Perth, Western Australia, so she is teasing me about loving the +100 degree summer days there.

Oooh! Don't hate me 'cuz I'm warm!

I think it began snowing in late October/early November here in Sweden(Stockholm), and it wasn't until December that they started to take it away. Just a week ago it was colder than -10(Celsius) and I swear the temperature is playing with us. It's going up, down, up, down... Which means that unless you've got ice skates, you've got a hell of a work ahead of you just getting to school/work(and I walk!).

Though at least the trains aren't all stopping like last year. The person that came latest ever in my class last year came when we finished lunch, and then several hours had passed.

Sure I like cold much better than warmth, but snow for this long!? It's just daedra annoying! Yes, we've had snow from late October/early November! And if it's anything like last year, it wont be gone until Mars, or was it April??? Lately I've been wishing I'd get sick, just so that I don't have to go outside, but who am I kidding, last time I was sick was summer, and it'll probably take until summer for me to get sick again with my luck.

Dad has been talking about moving to Italy, and I do think he would if he could I can't think of ONE person that haven't begun hating the snow yet. No snowstorms(yet, I wouldn't be surprised if it happened), but it's daedra annoying having all this snow and ice for so long. And our schools don't ever close because of snow!!!

Acadian: +100 Don't you know that's the boiling point!? Couldn't resist.

mALX: Sorry to hear you've been sick, I haven't even met anyone that have had it, but I can imagine it isn't fun.

Thomas Kaira: Hope you get better.

Steam/evaporation. It happens if you put hot water in a bowl outside next to a bowl of cold water too - the one with the hot water freezes up first.


@ Acadian -

Having lived in New York for 20 years, I can sympathize with you folks that still own snow shovels. But now that I live in Ala-freakin-bama, I fear that I have grown soft. It was 45 (F) today with a wind chill that made it feel like it was 44 (F) and I was griping about the cold at work.

I have folks up in New York, and they got NAILED about a week ago. Something like 15 inches, and that snow is HEAVY! Makes shoveling a nightmare and a half.

I've got it easy where I live. It snows a fair deal, but at least it's dry!

[Grits]

It was an absolutely lovely doors and windows open kind of day in Grits World. I really needed it after having flu in the house since Friday. Not me, a youngster. It’s supposed to freeze again tonight, so I expect I’ll be a whiney little umbrella seller about it tomorrow.

Sympathy to the snow-removers among us. I love to sit by the fire and watch the snow. For about an hour. Then I’m ready to hit the beach. Somewhat related, the local groundhog saw his dang shadow today. Furry little honoured user.

Whee, word replacement is fun!

Hang onto something tightly, I saw more tornadoes hit Alabama the last two years - all of them cutting right across from Slidell, Louisiana to the Military base near Phenix City every single time.

I cut through Alabama several times a year going to Louisiana - I'll honk and wave out the window next time I cross the border, lol.
