Where is summer??? I’m cold!!! Last week I only worked one day and on Thursday I came down with a killer head cold and a lot of congestion. On Wednesday last week hubby and I spent most of the day wearing extra shirts and got a big chunk of our winter wood split and stacked for the winter.
Eddie split and I stacked.
He had already stacked two ranks when I joined him.
The wind blew all day but I was never uncomfortable and we did this for about five hours taking short breaks every so often.
At the end of the five hours we only had this stack of sawed wood to split.
We had this stack of wood that didn’t need split to stack.
And these logs to saw up, split and stack.
We were tired but very proud of the big job we got started. I fixed supper that evening after we finished our regular chores, took a hot shower and went to bed. I woke up the next morning barely able to move and a head full of the awfulest mess you could ever have. I started taking meds for it and slept off and on for forty eight hours. I missed this entire week of work and am recuperating but still not able to be out amongst folks. Eddie worked more on the wood pile today but I have been in the house trying to feel better. My inhalers and Muscinex are helping but everyone is telling me it’s going to take time to get completely over it. I truly hope that summer comes to visit next week because this crazy weather is NOT my friend!!
I hope you are feeling better! Sounds like a nasty cold ..

You know how these colds/sinus grab hold of me but I’ve shaken it for the most part. The wind just kills me.

Oh, Rita, so sorry to hear that you’re not feeling well, especially this time of year. The weather has been up-ended all around the world, with places unusually hot or unusually cold, unusually wet or unusually dry. It’s bad enough to worry about being able to plant or harvest because of bad conditions without being sick as well. Take good care of yourself.

Hope you’re feeling better…
I’m not fond of this hot to cold weather we’ve been getting either, but I will take it after last years rain almost daily… 😉

The weather has been so strange this year! We’ve been in the 80’s here in Texas, when we’re usually having our first 100’s!
