Things have been kind of difficult lately.

This Christmas Eve, I fell ill with a nasty sore throat and cough, along with general tiredness, weakness, and a slight fever.

I was too sick to do much of anything, so I spent most of Christmas Eve and Christmas Day on the couch watching TV specials, admiring the Christmas tree, and watching snow fall outside.

Over the past few days, I seem to have gotten most of my strength back, but the sore throat and cough refuse to leave, and there seems to be a never-ending supply of mucus to make me feel sluggish even on a good day.

I am hoping that I will be better by New Years, but am not holding out much hope, as this type of thing takes a long time to leave ones body.

Things are ok otherwise, though it is kind of boring being stuck inside all day.
