Sunday 28th 27F/-2.8C [8.15] A white frost. Mixed forecast of sunshine and cloud. 64F/17.8C in the room. 37F/2.8C in the greenhouse. I had better light the stove.
Up at 7.40 after the worst night ever. The fire bucket was half full this morning. I am still trotting off to the bathroom at 15 minute intervals. Not sure what has happened to the cold symptoms. They have changed. I am sweating and fuzzy. Nose bleed in my left nostril overnight and visible when I blow my nose. I struggled to eat my muesli. I'd better keep the fluids going.
9.30 The stove is going well. Two more baskets of logs brought in. Last basket of kindling. Ash pan emptied on the compost heap. I upset the gorgeous white horse. I hadn't noticed it was grazing near the boundary. It cantered effortlessly to the top of the hill. Beauty in motion. It is definitely a bit chilly out there. The Morris' windows are frosted even under the carport. I don't feel up to having a walk today.
A tabby cat and male pheasant are in the drive. The pheasant is running away. The cat sneaking through the absent neighbour's garden.
Lunch, then a nap. Then I drove to the village. To catch up on the shopping. Several mature ladies smiled as I drove along.
Dinner will be poached eggs on toast. I can't face a cooked meal.
It's lucky I keep a good stock of issues. Sneezing and blowing my nose has become a pastime.
