Freaky Clouds


Yesterday we had some freaky clouds in the skies around town. 







wave cloud is a cloud form created by atmospheric internal waves.

Pretty rare here - so of course we're all standing outside taking a photo. 







In front of Foodie's complex. 

Oh and Happy First Day of March! 

March is such a fickle month. It is the seam between winter and spring—though seam suggests an even hem, and March is more like a rough line of stitches sewn by an unsteady hand, swinging wildly between January gusts and June greens. You don’t know what you’ll find, until you step outside.

This morning I woke up with chest congestion and coughing. Just out of no place! 

I soldiered on and kept my grocery shopping commitment. I told my son, I'd have to take a raincheck on the birthday lunch at my favorite deli. It was nice to have him along because the longer it took, the more I started to feel like crap. I paid and then went to the car to wait for him to bag everything. 

I could barely get home - 

I laid down but did not sleep. I'm just not used to taking afternoon naps anymore. But the rest did me good and I am up and about again. I don't have an appetite - only for a Ricola now and then. So far I was feeling worse at the grocery store - now I just feel tired and achy with a juicy cough. I did have some orange juice and a scrambled egg. 

So it looks like this is the way I will usher in my 70th birthday which is tomorrow. Feeling more like I am older than 70 - but hey, I'm still alive! 


I'll probably peter out early tonight. 

Take Care.

Debby






PS. Blogger is at it again. At least with me. I am having a hard time uploading photos from my computer. So far no problem if I use my phone. No dice when I use my desktop. 


This 70-year-old is not in the mood for this!

  4. Oh, bless your heart on not feeling good again! Prayers that you're better soon. All that shopping at the plant nursery wore me out. I feel like something the cat dragged in now instead of elated.
    FaceBook keeps messing me up. I can't tag anyone anymore. I've checked my settings and everything seems "OK". I don't get these things. Most times these 'puters are more trouble than they're worth. For real.
    Get well soon. Wish we lived closer. I'd bring you some chicken soup. Fixes everything.
    Blessings. 💙

  7. I have trouble typing on a phone keyboard, so I upload photos to a post and then go back and use my computer to add the words.

  10. You may not have felt well on your birthday but at least it wasn't anything serious, here we are in Autumn and that means anything from more stinking hot days to somewhat cool to cold days for us.

    I made dinner for my family on Saturday to celebrate my youngest brothers 60th birthday which was actually on Monday,
    Happy Birthday and celebrate that at 70 you have a lovely life and can still enjoy it and all around you.

  17. Yea, it is a different way now to upload the pictures, but it does go to your picture file if you're on a computer. It seems like it takes longer though, ugh. I'm sorry you've been feeling sick lately. Yes, I saw the most amazing clouds in the sky the other day after it rained. And we had a big SNOW the last couple of days, and more to come. That wave cloud photo is really cool. And a Happy Birthday to you Debby!

    Take care, and get well.
