… another year… another WTF…
So yeah… Happy New Year has taken on a new meaning in my world. A year ago this week, I felt like all hell was breaking loose. I was having trouble breathing and eventually hospitalized twice in the first two weeks of 2024.
This year, on the 27th, my baby brother was riding his bike to work in Chicago and he got hit by a bus. He’s banged up and has a slight brain injury, but he’ll be ok. Then on the 30th, I decided I should check on that 4-day sore throat and took a COVID test. It was positive. No worries, it was an old test so I took a second test. It was positive too!
So yeah, I’m ringing in the new year with pain and fatigue. I couldn’t even swallow to toast 2025. I can’t cook the traditional New Year’s Day meal so I will probably have no luck or money in the new year 😭 .
OK… I just looked it up… I can cook with COVID. Woohoo! 😷
I guess dinner was ok, yesterday. My son and cousin said it was good. I stayed masked and gloved, and did more directing than handling… but now I can’t taste a damn thing… not even jalapeno potato chips!!
Anyhoo… that’s how I started the year. How ‘bout you?
Oh yeah… Mary Not Broken audio book is on sale 70% off until 1/11/25!
