It has been a while since I posted. That is unfortunately because of Covid. Allen and I have been very ill. I had several trips to the Emergency Room and one for Allen. I ended up in the hospital for a bit, Covid was not gentle with us. Allen struggled through the agony to keep the beasts all well cared for, he suffered for that effort. He kept us going.
The illness came into the house at a very bad time. We were having new floors put in and the man doing it brought Covid with him. It hit us while the house was torn apart, beds in the kitchen and shelves in the bathroom boxes of books everywhere. It was difficult moving around with high fever, harder to not fall and trip over everything.
We love the floors, but I have to admit the joy of having them lost its shine as we struggled to reassemble the house through our exhaustion. We had so many offers of help from family and friends but Allen and I are of the same mind. The only thing worse and having Covid is giving Covid to someone one else.
We are grateful there was no snow during our illness, that may have broken us. We bent pretty far but we came out all right. I hope we never have to deal with anything like that again.
Our hopes are 2024 will be better.
May you all see nothing but the best in the coming year.
