Headache day
Headache day always comes around the end of the first week of coughing, when the cough turns from wet to dry, and one sounds like a machine gun. So I only cleaned the bathroom showers and the kitchen floor, took my shawl-in-spe and retired to the couch. Damn, had I known the vast amount of errors I did produce when crocheting I'd have turned the TV on only, and that's it! I chose the pattern, because it seemed easy. Have done it often enough when crocheting the throws! But honeycomb cables done with such a thin wool are the horror! And the crochet hook needs replacement, because it's old and napped and tears the wool. Will buy a new one on Wednesday, when daughter and I will do a shopping tour to Germany. Until then I will have to suffer from double headache caused by coughing and crocheting. At least I did not have to cook- hubby defrosted the minced meat Mexican style and filled it into tortillas by adding cheese and roasted onions.
Yesterday evening I was dead sure that the cold would spare us- it was four degrees at ten in the evening. When I got up at seven we were down to minus five, and some of the plants did not like the low temperatures. I wonder if the fig tree will survive. Figs are supposed to be frost resistant, but mine is young and got just dragged from the conservatory onto the terrace! Bad enough that hubby had placed the pot on top of the shelf inside, where only he was able to water it but forgot now and then. When he took the pot down the tree had already shed this year's first harvest of figs! Might be that I will have to buy a new one- I so love fresh figs!
In the afternoon Amazon driver delivered hubby's smart watch. Oh boy, hubby was a bit overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things he had to set but was not able to- I heard either hubby swearing or the watch loudly beeping, at worst both at the same time. That was so very annoying that I gave up on doing nothing and went up to the bedroom and turned my tablet PC on. Haven't had a look at my abos for ages!
