Over and Done With It

March 20, 2018 at 10:24 am by Claudia

Hi everyone. I’m really under the weather and just can’t concentrate enough to write a post. Also, tomorrow we’re going to be hit by our 4th nor’easter in three weeks. I am so over all of this and I sure as heck can’t shovel.

Think of any cuss word and I can guarantee you I’ve said it in the last 24 hours.

Anyway, I have to force myself to go out and run some errands because I don’t know when I’ll be able to get out again. The predictions about this storm are all over the place so I have no idea how much heavy, wet snow will fall.

I’m over it.

If you don’t see a post tomorrow or the next day, it will simply be because I want to rest.

Happy Tuesday.

    Pack a bag, grab a box of tissues, catch the bus, hide out at Don’s apartment!

    I hope you rest up and get to feeling better soon. My Mom is under the weather also, so I’ve been making sure she gets her meds and rests. Ugh to all this weather, hey someone needs to tell snow that it’s now SPRING!! Hugs to you my friend.

    oh, gosh, it’s so hard to do ANYthing when you feel unwell – I hope you can just fall onto the bed or sofa as soon as you get done with your supplies-run and just wrap yourself in a blankie and sleep – will be thinking best/healing thoughts for you; stay in (once in) and stay safe…

    So this is Spring!? @(*&$-##)! Enjoy your nor’easter—we’ve got storms and tornado warnings today. Blankie time sounds like a good idea. Ugh.

    Hope you can stock up on your provisions and then hunker down for the duration. Unless you’re able to do what Debbie suggested…go hang out at Don’s apartment… feel much much better, Claudia. I know you’re over the weather, and the not feeling well.

    Smart. Very smart, Claudia. Get your supplies & then hunker down & rest up. Rest is probably the best thing you can do [well, rest & plenty of liquids]. And if you find you can’t sleep, don’t force yourself. Find something interesting to listen to [music, TV – whatever], get comfy, close your eyes & enjoy. Keep those eyes closed – it’s amazing how much more you actually here [plus I think it’s more restful]. Here’s hoping the storm peters out or blows over [it could happen]. Peace – and Happy First Day of Spring! 🌷

    Take care of yourself and get well soon. It’s snowing and freezing rain here in Baltimore. I’m ready for 75 degrees and sunny.

    Take care Claudia. All the viral stuff going around is nasty. After 3 weeks of flu, bronchitis, and asthma, I just finished my course of prednisone. Still not 100%. My doc said that many people are getting pneumonia from this bug.

    I am SOOOOOO over this weather! It seems that every year it bothers me more and more. I think I am ready to move to somewhere where it’s warm all year round. I get tired waiting for spring :0(
    Feel better Claudia!

    Please be careful with your health- look at the mess I got into because I thought it was just a bad cough and cold. 4 months later I’m still not back to snuff.

    I hope you are back home…resting after your errands. I’ve been keeping myself busy with projects…waiting until spring really, truly arrives. Perhaps a long nap is in order…then when you awake…it will really be springtime. And being all congested certainly doesn’t help. Take care…and sleep! ;)

    Hi Claudia,
    You are not suffering alone. Everyone I know has had it with the snow. This year, DH and I escaped in our little camper just in time to miss all of the March Northeasters…so glad we did. Writing this from the mountains of North Carolina, which actually might get a few flurries tomorrow but at least not a Northeaster. Hang in there! ~Cheryl

    Dear Claudia, you’ve been dealing with continuous events all the way from the exhausting to the exhilarating which has likely taken it’s toll. May you take it as easy as you can while being under the weather (in and outside) and find your way back to your center and well being. I well know this is easier said than done and as i’ve also woken to a cold will try to do the same.All the best!

    hope you have all the supplies you need – as well as some treats. that you can rest and sleep and will soon feel better. that the storm passes you by and any snow you get melts without need of shoveling. that you don’t think about your blog, just rest.

    see you when you get back.

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
