I'm feeling down these beautiful days, the seemingly endless rain and cold has given way to perfect 20 C weather here in N. Ontario, and I am just sitting watching it. I had a bad cold flu whatever a few weeks ago, missed my sports and cylcling, last Sat went for a short ride and felt not bad, played ball hockey Sunday night, then on Monday morning, my left chest area was on fire, I had pleurisy many years ago, that's what it felt like. After a horrible day at work, finally dragged myself off to the doc, and he said yeah it's pleurisy, take these pills, rest, I have been resting all week, maybe it's a bit better, doesn't feel like my rib is broken anymore, but this weather is so perfect, I feel I could wallow further into this pit of self pity.. upside, I have regular tan lines, sitting out with a book to read, and the oldies station is ok, but I am longing for my bike, baseball, and ball hockey. Maybe today I will be able to do a slow easy ride. Any encouragement will be well taken,I am not often sick and I actually think I feel 53 these last few days... Lori
