Brutal weather up in the valley and beyond, loads of snow, dangerous driving conditions, lots of people staying home, schools closed. But that is in the valley not here in the city. We had some snow but it didn't interfere with any activities. We went out both days.
Rick is in Calgary where the temperature is -30. I hope he is managing okay. I always call us B.C.ers hothouse flowers.  LOL.
hibiscus......
We went back to the hospital this afternoon to see Dr. Vortel the infectious disease specialist. He is the one who prescribes the
antibiotics that I get every morning. He is unhappy that I have to be on this medicine for long term but is unhappy that the germ is still there and I need the  treatment. He said that we are walking a fine line here.  He told us that both of us deserve a medal the way we are dealing with things. Scary stuff but there is nothing else for it but to have this antibiotic. He said he will take me off it in February, I think to see if I will be okay. But I am afraid I'll just end back in hospital again. There it is an enigma of sorts.
Marg called when we got home and wanted to come over with another book. This one is  a large book, The Decision by Penny Vincenzi. She said it was a good book but my hands get very sore holding up big books. It might take me a month at least to read it -haha.  Well I just checked the number of pages and there are only 730 so the actual reading would not take too long but holding it will lengthen the time as my hands will need a rest. Oh Adam I know you say to get a Kindle but then I would not get all this reading material for nothing LOL.
No sewing today but tomorrow when the cleaning lady comes maybe she will be willing to work around me LOL.
I am fired up so I hope to get another one done this week, or maybe two.
Time to fly.
Good night

That sounds so cold. I can't even imagine -30. I'm glad it isn't in your area. Sorry you are having to stay on the meds so long. Will keep you in my thoughts and hope you will be able to hold your own without them in February. :)

Your book sounds as long as a Harry Potter novel. They do get heavy but it is so hard to put them down once you get into the story line.
