Grumblings

Probably not the best time for me to write-- quit reading here if listening to someone else's grumblings isn't your cup of tea. Speaking of tea, how much have I downed in the last week and a half as I try to recover from this neverending cold? I am feeling lots better than last week, but the tickle in my throat, the cough, and the damned incontinence while coughing still remains. There is a whole new section of the feminine product aisle I've been visiting lately... one that I thought I wouldn't have to worry about until I was at least 60! I sure hope this embarrassing condition will retreat as my cough goes away. Sheesh!

And now, probably linked to the above-mentioned condition, now I have a urinary tract infection. I started to feel like I was getting one this afternoon, and now I'm sure of it, uncomfortably sure. Hey women, you all know what I'm talking about. I've taken Tylenol and am drinking lots of water, but I'll be heading into the clinic for the antibiotics tomorrow. I can't wait!

And I'm feeling a bit down in general right now. I've been trying to deal with my food issues and the connection to feelings, because I really don't want to be this weight anymore. But I keep trying and staying stuck, and it's not just as easy as "go on a diet" for me anymore. My eating is a real defense mechanism that I need to get to the bottom of. I'm still pondering this one.

And now it looks like we're heading into very cold temps here in Minnesota for the next four days. They are talking 40 below, and are predicting we won't even reach 0 degrees as a high on some of these days. They say it hasn't been this cold here in 11 years. Wow! We've been spoiled! We'll see how this goes...

'Nuff grumbling. Thanks for listening.
