The flu.

So I have the flu or something very similar, every single fiber  in my body has been aching, especially in my thighs and it really hurts while walking in stairs 🙂 🙂 Not so great when the computer and bedroom is upstairs 🙂 🙂 It still would most likely hurt really bad but I’m putting on anti inflammatory ointment and it helps enough so that I can hav walks with the dogs and get to the bedroom without wondering if it wouldn’t be better to just sleep in my sofas 🙂 🙂

To be honest it also helped a lot by walking the dogs, terrible in the beginning, got easier the more we walked and it felt almost normal when we arrived back home again. However an hour or so later it felt worse than before 🙂 🙂 🙂 I’m freezing like a doge every no and again, not especially sour in my throat but almost no coughing, so far that is. So this could have been far worse to be honest.

Between walks very little has been done though, lots of resting and tea drinking and watching tv programs I haven’t enjoyed and I’ve also read a lot. I only wish I’ve had some rose-hip soup at home so I’ll make sure to buy some next time I’ll go to the store. Warm rose-hip soup with tiny almond biscuits/cookies (when asking google about the name it suggested almond macaroons but to be honest I don’t think that fits at all) they’re only 1cm (two fifths on an inch) big and not in two pieces as macaroons always seems to be. They more or less only works with rose-hip soup or as a sort of snack to be honest 🙂

Yesterday we had a nice thick fog almost all day and today we’ve had a grey and dull weather bit with frost instead. We were supposed to have fairly much snow but only had a dusting and that’s just enough. Still a long time till spring but I don’t mind if it comes early and I really don’t want a snowstorm like we had last April, the snow melted away after a week and then spring sprung but I still didn’t like it even though it happened when Malkolm just had arrived and I was forced to have a week of vacation since I couldn’t leave a puppy in the dog house/ yard in there while I was working.

I think it is time for that last cup of tea for the day and then find that book again. I think I finally have found a way to move the photos from the editing program to the blog, I’m crossing my fingers and holding my thumbs for good luck 🙂

Have a great day!

  1. So misty and foggy there! It probably echoes how you’re feeling, with the flu. The muscle aches of the flu are the worst part, but they usually move out soon.

    I did buy some powdered rose hips the last time you mentioned the soup, though I haven’t made it yet. Since I have a small cold myself, I may get to the kitchen and try making the soup.

    I’m glad you have that new laptop and are learning your way around it!

    Remember that sleep is the best medicine…

    1. Hi Goodport!

      We’ve had fog, some better some worse, every day here now but tomorrow they’re guessing we’ll have sunshine. Last time they guessed that we had fog all day 🙂 🙂 🙂

      Yes the muscle pain is really bad but I think if the coughing starts at night that’s even worse. Today is the first day I don’t want to cry when walking in the stairs 🙂 🙂 🙂

      Is the rose-hip powder sugared? If not have some close because otherwise it is pretty tart 🙂 🙂

      I’m so used to PC that a Mac feels like driving without hydraulic steering 🙂 🙂 🙂 This will soon be just the same but at the moment I’ve started to think about what I’ve done but not in a positive way 🙂 🙂 🙂

      Lots of napping here 🙂
