2022 Frozen Tundra Farm Report
Hopalong:
This is not a cluck.
But a feathered inquiry.
Possibly with eggs.
Wish I could bring you some soup!!!

LOL.... I'm about "souped" out Hops. Nothing even sounds appetizing. I might pick up an order of italian or mexican carryout today when I come home from grocery shopping. Maybe drive the other direction & get a house burger -- they're excellent burgers.
I'm absolutely bored to tears, I think.
Hopalong:
Podcast time?
I never do that, preferring reading print sources (online) and watching YouTube interviews, etc.
But Poet loves them. Just sent me a link to one on Ukraine. I won't so that one but probably it'd be a good thing to explore (interesting podcasts generally) for when I'm cooking or doing something dull that takes a while.

We had tacos for our Halloween crowd last night......very yummy.
My sister made a pot of Bolonese sauce,SO GOOD and comforting. Like a big'ol hug in a bowl.

Think I'm rounding the corner now on this. Still a lot of nasal congestion but my head is finally starting to feel more normal. The weirdest thing I felt the whole time, was like I was fading - bleached in the sun - a mere hologram of myself. As if my whole personality was draining away and I was only a miserable body.
And depressed because during all that boredom, my mind wandered back to the weeks & months I was a sick kid and my mom tried to take care of me... first illness with no mom on the planet, and that tweaked the self-pity button a bit. Instead, I had bossy Holly simultaneously trying to recover herself and needing attention and telling me the "right way" to go about enduring this.
My energy & stamina levels are the last to improve... but that's coming back a little. I strictly enforced the rest & liquids regime to the point that it was the better part of valor to be a slug until I got my head & awareness centered back firmly in my body again. I felt kinda guilty about that, too... but I literally couldn't maintain attention long enough to make a cup of tea the worst days.
The neuro-perceptual effects makes this the WEIRDEST virus I've ever gone thru, including the Hong Kong flu in the 60s. I do NOT want to get this again. I'm still trying to recenter completely. I'm glad we cancelled the girl's weekend. And I go get my haircut today, after rescheduling last week. Weather's been beautiful and warmer again. I think that's helping. B rolls in with the next load on Sunday and I'm making Shepherd's pie with lamb. He may not be able to eat when he gets off the road, but it keeps pretty well for leftovers.
