I'm "enjoying" an unexpected day at home today. I place unexpected in quotes because I woke up early this morning with nausea and vomiting due, I believe, to a pre-prepared packaged food I often get at my local food co-op. I've had the brand of food many times in the past and never had a reaction. With the recurrent endometrial cancer last fall, radiation therapy in December and then I had COVID a few weeks ago (that's another story altogether) I feel like my immune system has really been assaulted.

I'm in a community chorus and the week before we were scheduled for our Spring performance there was an outbreak of COVID in the choir. I've been vaccinated and boosted but I got it. Wouldn't you know that although not required I had been wearing a mask during every choir practice with the exception of the one choir practice when the exposure occurred. I don't know how many of us got sick but I do know that one of my friends who was masked also got COVID. The performance was cancelled, then rescheduled for this coming weekend. I'm not signing as my voice is still affected. COVID keeps rearing its head and upending all sorts of plans. I keep reminding myself that it's best to stay flexible during these uncertain times. The cancer recurrence has certainly tried my resilience as I've try to keep myself in the present.

I did sit outside this morning and looked for birds. It's definitely spring migration so I saw warblers in their gorgeous spring colors and heard birds I don't hear at other times of the year.

I hope you are staying well. Did you take your uncle for his cancer surgery this week? And you have a garage full of flowers to tend to this weekend too, don't you? Spring has arrived to us in the north!
