Softly Falling
It's supposed to snow tonight, maybe. And to get really cold for us again. Down as low as 6 degrees by Tuesday night. Many inches at Ski Bluewood. Nice for the the school break skiiers.
Recovering from Flu A. And yes, I got a flu shot in September. Spent five days in isolation in the hospital including Christmas Eve. Thank God for family and a loving kind staff. I'm home tottering around and opened my Christmas Gifts. All wonderful. Sweet smelling little lavender pillows, new jammies, framed photos of faces I love. So glad to be home.
My new favorite poem. Author unknown.
I wish I was a glow worm
A glow worm’s never glum
Cuz how can you be sad or mad
When the suns shines out your bum.

I've heard many comments about catching the flu even after a flu shot. HOpe I got the right one. The picture is so pretty.
What a great uplifting poem. Yep, that flu shot doesn't prevent all versions of the flu. I now get the (double dose) shot which they give to elders and while I can still get a cold and chest infection, I have not had the flu in a looong time.
I have read that the flu shot this year may be less effective with the most virulent flu :(. I have not had a flu shot in probably 40 years because I had such bad reactions to them-- again and again with it getting worse. I have had the flu once in that time. But I am religious about washing my hands and not touching mouth or eyes when out in stores. It's not a foolproof way to avoid but it cuts the risks. There is, of course, no way to avoid it once it comes into the house-- which happened to me that one case. I just hold my breath through this season... well, not really ;)
Ha Ha you are a glow worm. Glad you are better.
I like your glowing poem! Glad to hear you are home and on the mend.
I haven't gott'n the flu shot, every single one of my friends who have gotten it, have gotten the flu.
Get well soon- flu is never any fun and it's worrisome to be that sick. Happy 2015 may it be healthier and even happier! Cheers!
Oh,my, I am so sorry. Thanks so much for taking time in your shakyness to leave me a note. You bet I am so pleased that you are home getting better. I send hugs from here.
I love that photo--while I love the water, I also love the open fields and the mountains... Nice poem.
Did I give you a thank you for all the gifts you have shared with us this last year. May you enjoy health and happiness in the coming year.
