I’m sure you’re all dying to know how my health is doing. Well. I’m over my cold, and back to sneezing because of my normal allergies. I really have to vacuum and dust this place. Oh, and that ear wax problem I had? It went away by itself. Most stuff usually does if you just let it alone. I think it helped that I always take long, hot showers, and the humidity must have helped loosen up the wax, allowing it to drain out. Also I’ll bet you I had some sort of ear infection or irritation that caused swelling. Also I started taking the real (as in, the controlled substance that is the only one that works) decongestant, and that helped. Anyway, I can hear again, and that stuffed feeling is gone from my ear canal. I didn’t go to the doctor either. I’ll bet you if I had I’d still have a swollen ear — they’d have poked and prodded and irritated the inside further. And I’d have to take medicine. And I’d have a huge hole in my tiny store of money. Well, I do have that, but that’s from food and other necessities. I find that I can’t go with daily meals.
I feel well enough to start walking again. It’s a nice day — partly cloudy and sunny, temps in the 70s. I wish it were a bit cooler, but that will do. I shouldn’t waste this weather. Also, since we’ve had cold weather early a lot of the trees have changed color. In past years we’ve had rather warm winters, and the trees (the ones that do change color, the maples and so on) just sort of turned brown some time around January. But I’m seeing red and orange and yellow. I can’t wait to move up north where I’ll get a proper autumn at last.
