Steady improvement, thanks. Slept well for the first time in ages.

That's great news, Gary!  I hope you regain your energy also.  Off to bed.  Looking forward to the next chapter.

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening to all!

I spent the day reading the new anthology stories.  A lot of great short stories that may become new books are in this group.  I recovered from Friday's excess, but tomorrow I'm going in to see the doctor.  I have an angry red lump on my thigh that is probably infected.  I see many days of antibiotic pills in the near future.  Otherwise, Aod and I are doing well.

Good morning/afternoon/evening to you as well.

Have you been sick?  It's been over a month for me and I'm still not where I used to be.

Hey Mister T, hey to the rest of the gang  

An infected lump you say... 🤔Humm... Terry! Have you been in very close proximity to a certain Texas who's also taking antibiotics for an infected lump to the point of you both having a lump?!

I miss having enough time to catch my breath, lol.

I had a productive day! Made a load of laundry, had lunch with great-aunt at the steakhouse, returned a sport t-shirt that was too big, bought some boots and a cardigan and spent some time at the second hand bookstore where I've found some great children books for just 2€ each! I'm planning to go there every month to see what they have new to slowly build my teacher library. 

The weather has finally activated the fall mode with 15°C and a grey sky with a couple of rays of sunshine.

Yeah, I've been feeling poorly for quite a while, and just got treated with antibiotics for Lyme Disease as a precaution while I wait for blood work results. My doc says the blood test sucks, and almost always come back negative even when positive. Said it also could have been covid... possibly long covid... in other words, no idea.   Feeling better than I was, though. Not great, but better. Had bad body aches, headaches, heart palpitations, shortness of breath and very low energy, and all that has improved.

Well, glad you are feeling better regardless of the cause!

Like I could probably write right now.  But I'm also really enjoying my book.

Hi Clo!  No Clo.  Aod is the only one I'm that close to.  When it comes to the Texan, I usually try to keep at least an ocean distance away.  I have had that lump for three weeks almost, but I noticed the thing was much less swollen, less painful and has less of an angry red area.
