8:10 |
Yesterday we were both in recovery mode, still feeling the after effects of our illnesses during the holidays. No energy, listless, an effort to get up and do something productive. My cough remains but it seems to be less bothersome, as the medicine begins to kick in...I hope. We mostly enjoyed the comfort and warmth of our home, fire blazing, as we either sat in the living room, listening to POTUS, a Sirius radio channel, reading or surfing the Internet, or watching some TV. About the extent of our efforts was to finish up washing and drying the dishes from the previous night.

The afternoon was much of the same, reading, having lunch while watching Jon Stewart, then a nap, more reading, some TV. I did force myself to walk to the mailbox, nothing there, and I then did a fast shoveling of our parking space, hoping to keep up with it. A good thing because there's another six inches covering it this morning. We relaxed from 5:00 to 6:00, with a glass of wine, listened to Julia Mason on POTUS, a journalist/broadcaster we have come to enjoy. She has all sorts of political guests, who talk about the news of the day.
Around 6:00, Evie got out homemade frozen meatballs, mushrooms, a pasta sauce, threw them together, boiled some pasta and we had a dinner, with a salad of course. Not much on TV on Tuesdays so we watched two more episodes of The Americans which I am really starting to enjoy. I can see why it has gotten lots of good reviews. We also watched two more episodes of Getting On, a hilarious mixture of a geriatric ward manned by seemingly insane doctors and nurses. There are moments of great sadness followed by something absolutely hilarious, a curious mixture but it works.
