Just a Cloudy Day Here

We woke up to a very cloudy day today. We didn't have anything planned and therefore, it has been a lazy day! I am piddling with getting Ebay orders filled and ready to ship out, relisting things there and adding some new things also. My hubby has been outside piddling with boats. On a good note, he has fixed brunch today, fed the chickens (an oddity for him), cats and gotten lunch for himself. I need to go fix the dog's food so he will be fed and that will take care of all the critters. I went back to sleep after discovering I had fever. How is your day going?

I popped Aleve all afternoon and night. I hope I don't wake up with it again tomorrow. I didn't feel like doing anything today. The things I did try, I could not focus on. So tomorrow needs to be much better!

@Ineeddentures The itch is getting better. The new area on my back is itching but the rest is tolerable somewhat. Hoping that the new areas trying to breakout are stopped by the ointment. The dr. said I could use 3 x a day instead of 2 x on the phone the other day. Yay! That helps!

Nothing like a lazy day now and then to be lazy on. I have them maybe twice every week. The other 5 days I am less lazy. I like your chickens. Piddling here means peeing. You must have a few animals, do you live on a big spread, I think that's the right word I learned on my American day.

I am tired of being lazy, but don't feel like doing much either. That's just a photo from Pixabay. But I do have some of the same kind of chickens. I usually add a new variety each summer. This summer may be an exception with this rash. I'm lucky hubby is helping feed everyone. We have about 2.5 acres, not a lot, but a lot for 2 old people to keep up!

I waited all day for a return call from my doctor which never happened. I fell asleep around 4 pm and Pretty woke me up at 6 pm. I wanted to go out and work in the yard but my eyes decided to start swelling closed. *shrug*

That annoys me with the phone calls. It seems like they could let patients know on their recording that call backs will be between x and z hours. Then you could be expecting the call and not have to take your phone every step of the day with you. Everytime I leave mine in another room, someone important calls. I hope you feel better on Saturday! Oh wait--it IS Saturday!! Later today, perhaps?

@DaddyEvil Yeah, their "shortly" has a different definition, that is for sure!

@kareng A nurse told me she'd call me back "shortly". I should have just gone out then and done what I wanted. I didn't want to answer the phone with dirt on my hands. Thanks. My eyes are open again now.

I like lazy days and am very good at them. I wonder if fever and rash are related?

I don't think so, but I ran fever often when auto- immune illness was active last time. So that points back to auto-immune related.

@Ronrybs Sure is pointing that way.

@kareng Indeed, I think you may know the root of the problem

I hope your fever is gone. I want to start selling on eBay; but the problem is finding someone to ship my packages. I hope you have a good weekend. The chickens look like they are dancing.

Some things you can ship from your house. USPS will pick up, you can call and schedule a pick up or put in your box with flag up (which depends on your area. I would not do that here because my box is across a busy road and too easy for someone to stop and get it!) So far, that is the only way I have shipped...USPS.

Hope you feel better soon. It was cloudy most of the day here too. But I did finally get my daisies.

It never did rain here. I give up on the garden this year. I have lots of things ready to go in the garden, but I don't see it happening with this rash and now fever.

I am enjoying my day sharing news stories today and completing surveys under a partly sunny day after some rain passed through my neighborhood this afternoon.
