Been down with the flu since last week and just got a notice to book my flu and covid vax. That might have been helpful a month ago lol.

Why heart attacks in women are often missed in Canadian emergency rooms
For years, the way doctors diagnose heart attacks has largely relied on research and testing standards developed using data that came mostly from men.

So glad I had basics to make chicken noodle soup yesterday. Picked up a pre roasted grocery store chicken and voila. Today I won't be leaving the couch.

My guy is coming for a visit and I suggested we make tacos instead of eating out. I like eating out but it's so expensive, I have a fridge full of food, & allergies keep me from Mexican restaurants. Win-win!

Art is like renovations for me where 1 thing leads to another. I start watercolours, buy a watercolour journal, then begin eying sketchbooks. Ooo! Alcohol markers! Let's do that too! Just take my money.

I have been sitting with a lot of feelings these days so I have taken a deep dive into art. Lots of doodling, watercolours and colouring. It has been really therapeutic and fun!

Saturday. Leisurely coffee, laundry, a house tidy, some painting, and cat snuggles. Today's watercolour is going to be pumpkins.

I've been having headaches and a sore neck nearly every day since I went back to work. Just realized it is likely because of the heavy back pack I have been hauling around.

Also, navigating w/a blind person is hilarious when you constantly mix up right/left. Patience of a saint, I tell you Me: Okay, the desk is on your left. Wait, I mean right. We're going to turn right now. Oops. No I mean left. Blind person: Um.... Me: I WILL GET IT TOGETHER I PROMISE.
