Good Afternoon, Friday, 2 January - What I'm Thankful for Today

Tweet

Good afternoon from cold Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It's 13 F and feels like 3 F. I'm combining two posts in one since I didn't get on here this morning. I had a different kind of night last night. I went to bed early and three hours later, I was wide awake. I was up between midnight and 1:30 when I went to bed and got back to sleep until after 5:30 this morning. In all, I got about 6.5 hours of sleep. It's been a good day. I'll get the notifications done when I post this. I enjoy reading your posts and interacting with you. You know how self-doubt can rule your life? I asked AI about my writing and 'she' told me I have a unique writing style, different from mainstream authors who focus on markets. My focus is on the story and the reader. That made me feel good. I'm thankful I finally figured out what I wanted for the cover for Love's Illusion as seen below. No, your eyes aren't funny. It's intentionally blurred. That's what an illusion is, it's blurry. It's not in focus. I'm thankful I went with my neighbor to her doctor's appointment this morning. After her appointment, we went to Urgent Care. The good news is I no longer have COVID. I thought it was over. She did say I could have had one of several strains of the Corona Virus. What she did say is that yes, I'm sick. I have a very bad cold that is close to becoming pneumonia. I got in there in time to stop that from happening. I have two antibiotics and an inhaler. I've been sick for three weeks. It's the longest I've ever been sick. I won't be going to church again on Sunday. I'm thankful we went shopping. Even though my energy was quickly depleting, I needed food as much as my neighbor did, who hadn't been shopping yet since she got home from Minnesota. I got mostly finger food as I really don't have the energy to cook. All in all, it was a good day. What are you thankful for today? Let me know in the comments below. Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. The cover for Love's Illusion.
