Tired of being sick

For a couple weeks now, Harold and I have been sick with colds and/or sinus infections.  This is the third time in 3 months.  It's getting old.  When a person is sick with a bad cold, nothing gets done.  No energy.  We are hoping this is the last time this winter that we are sick.  In Harold's case, his immune system is next to zero because of the chemo drugs he has to take.  This time I think I got sick first, then Harold.   The other two times I think he got sick first and then gave the virus to me.  So, if you've been wondering why I haven't written anything on here, it's because of illness.   But we are both doing much better now.
     We are getting a break from the cold weather today and tomorrow.  It's 40 out there now!  The snow is melting, and even the cats are out and about.   We have one last chance to finish some of the winter chores we didn't get done yet - like put tarps over the tractors and lawn mower.  After Monday, things get progressively worse - and the long cold winter starts in earnest.  I was thinking that for some folks in the south, like Alabama or Georgia, a day like 40 degrees would be "bitter cold".  To us folks up here in Minnesota - this is a great day!  Warm!  Beautiful!  Funny how things are all relative.
