I Feel Pretty.....Again

Be careful about reading health books.You might die of a misprint - Henry David Thoreau
Welcome to my Tuesday.
I'm still suffering....😷 
A nice cup of tea helps... 
I'm trying to keep warm...↓
 I give everyone a royal wave,
Before they leave the house....
Then I wear 8 layers to keep warm.
I received my phone call from the Doctors.
They are concerned on how I am sounding,
So I am booked in, to be looked at....
 Frosty and cold outside!
However it's nice and warm in here...
 I had to go back and watch season 16 of Hell's Kitchen....
 Back to making pom poms for the wreath..
Now for Birthdays.
