One day you’re sweltering in the heat and 72 hours later we’re all bundled into sweat pants, fleece lined sweaters, and huddled under blankets on boat rides across the lake. Now here we are second week of school and the kids need a jacket in the morning, and a sweater for the chill winds blowing. These seasons change on a dime, about 3 weeks earlier than they should. It’s not autumn until the 22nd of September, but you wouldn’t know that if you looked outside, or took sight of a thermometer.
Not that I want it to be all humid and gross forever more, but these quick dips makes it easy to get sick. Now my cough is likely to be from running my dehumidifier at too high a setting to keep the basement from being damp and musty, but in the process drying out my nasal passages, and hurting my lungs/throat with the constant dryness. I hate damp feeling sheets, so it’s an issues I’ll need to live with until the snow comes, and the humidity evaporates anyway. Life is a delicate balance.
Day 13 of my cough and it does seem to be getting better, slightly. No meds since Thursday morning, and I have longer stretches with no coughing. Leaning back, reclining and lying down will still trigger a cough, but oh well. I pulled a muscle over the weekend in my abdomen from coughing. That hurt. Like doing too many crunches/sit ups without a break. Could have done without that!
Domestic Duties Monday is here again! It’s two of my brothers birthdays today. They are 47, and 49 respectively. Happy birthday!
