What’s the difference??

Here I sit with a whopper of a cold OR Flu….What’s the difference???…I ask!?!  I feel absolutely horrible, altho not as horrible as yesterday.  The ears are popping, the head feels very heavy, the sninus full(YUK), and the throat is scratchy.  At least it hasn’t attacked my stomach. You know I don’t feel good when I haven’t been online for days. Just didn’t want to crawl upstairs to the desktop ‘puter. Heck, I haven’t even watched TV till today (nothing on as usual).  Finally crawled out of the bedroom to the great room(why was it called that?….it is not so GREAT) plopped down on the sofa…sorry Ms Kitty…and waited till my head quit spinning, turned on the TV, dropped my kleenex box and while picking it up I spied the laptop under the end table on that dust-catching shelf(another WHY…as in Why did I buy that piece of furniture?…too long ago to remember)  AH-HA…Eureka!…I could go online without risking passing out on the stairs.  I have never liked the laptop, want my familiar mouse and not this uncontrollable thingy. What’s it called anyway?  A 2 inch square that you glide your finger over….very lightly or you’ll end up on some other website without even trying.

Update on my e-mail friend….no response.  I did send another note just to say Hi, How are you…..no response.  I guess I’m done, gonna put it behind me and enjoy the new friends I’ve found here on OD.

Last week I spent lots of time reading some other diaries.  I am soo impressed with so many of them. What neat and diverse lives people live. Would love to trade at least a day or two with a couple of them!  I live such a boring existence compared to most.  This OD is such a fun place to visit.

I probably need to fix myself something to eat soon.  Last meal I had was Tuesday evening and I didn’t eat much of it.  Nothing tastes good and I’m just not hungry…that is so not me!  In this area a truck comes once a month from Nov thru April bringing boxes of fresh fruit from Florida. I got three boxes (2/5 bushel ea) of Honeybelles.  Now, if you have never had a honeybell, you are missing out on probably the best orange ever.  Not really an orange…much better…so juicy and yummy! I have gotten these every year since 1974 when a former neighbor introduced me to them.  I’m gonna go get a couple of them now…..maybe the vitamin C will help me feel better…..
