Still Life with Kleenex box and thermometer<\/p><\/div>\n

Hello blog followers.\u00a0 It has been weeks since I touched base.\u00a0 First I was one winter break then I got the scourge!\u00a0 This is my first day in eight without a fever, and I must say my brain and body are not quite up to speed.\u00a0 I will keep it brief, since my mind keeps going blank, run don’t walk and get your flu shot if you haven’t gotten it already.\u00a0 This is a slow burning fever flu that leaves you with no will, no humor, no wonder just a wistful, listful longing for one more blanket and a box of Kleenex to cover the deep, thick cough .\u00a0 So that’s it, that’s all I can muster on day one of no fever.\u00a0 Be well and carry your hand sanitizer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
