Just been jabbed with B12 which seems to be one of my deficiencies. Some people report a massive boost from this but cannot feel any difference myself. Had a long chat with the nurse which is my only social interaction this week.
While out I noticed the wee lassie I had in the office when I first came here out exercising a pony. That was her first proper job after leaving school aged 17. Ye gods that makes her about 65 now. Where has the time gone?
Nice sunny day now and temp has risen to 4.3C but with wind chill feels more like minus 20C. Too windy to be bothered going out on the trike and in any case the sun will be blinding drivers. My fingers would get too painful with the cold as well.
About a dozen in the queue to get into the coop when passed and all huddled up as the wind is blowing straight at them. Must be in desperate need to stand there in that freezing wind.

Well that was interesting. Covid test. The test site is at the local station car park. Drive in and given the kit. Carry out the test yourself, hand everything back in double sealed bags. I was there for 25 minutes most of which was spent reading the instructions and packing stuff up afterwards.
Anyone wanting to know how it feels. Get a cotton bud, rub it around on the tonsil area at the back of the throat for 20 seconds. Then push it as far up a nostril as possible and twirl round for 15 seconds.
Gagging is a very real possibility
13 staff on site and me.

I had 2 a few weeks ago (one each week). I may have been fortunate with the nurses but, apart from tickling up my nose, it was fine.My son and grandson had one. They were both gagging

Don't think I would fancy doing it myself though.

I find that the settlers find them quaint and cannot believe in many cases that such words were in common use.
Just forced myself to go for another SHORT walk. Have to say, it feels colder than yesterday.
Managed a few short jogs along the way again 2x10 mtrs and 1x50 mtrs. The body felt fine but the legs were a tad shaky.
I hope to do something similar each day and gradually build it up.
Watch out @Mo1959 I'm coming to get you

Genitals, breasts, excrement and bathrooms. A multitude of words for these.
Monday will be the first day that the high will exceed -19C. Today the high is -23. I am still waiting for the second Covid shot to bite me on the butt, but apart from a sore shoulder I feel ok so far. I had the Moderna, my neighbor the Pfizer, and he felt like he had the flu. Go figure. Probably won't spend a lot of time outside today, though. I will have to amuse myself with core and leg work and maybe some yoga. There are always chores of some sort and lots of good food to eat. And if I feel the need
to work myself into a snit, there's always politics to piss me off.
Be well, safe and warm.

If you pull them right up, they will keep your ears warm too
