This morning I woke up chilled and so tonight I will finally be using my duvet, which makes me happy because it is starting to feel a bit more like winter, or at least a tropical facsimile of winter. SB of course is still in t-shirt and shorts with the windows wide open. He claims that it's only chilly because I just got over being sick. I lost half a kilo over the past week so SB won't be receiving any awards for his nursing or lack thereof. I would have called cousin Shoils but she's pregnant so I was left with my only other option. Acquiring chicken noodle soup from my a partner with ADHD meant receiving a phone call from the grocery store because he forgot the shopping list followed by a long wait for the soup to cook because he got distracted watching the football game. But he made the appropriate noises of sympathy and acknowledgement of my misery carried a lot of weight.
I played in the rugby match for my team last night even though I was still feeling a bit under the weather but I needed some activity and it was the last match before a long winter break. Next weekend is the club's holiday party followed by a month of cheery activities. Maybe it was a good thing that I starved for the past week.
In the next few days I will be dragging down ornaments and attacking the windows like a jolly elf to prepare our home for the holiday spirit. Right now, even the air smells right. Every time I'm on a tram out of the valley we pass a nursery that has recently started selling fir trees. The scent of fir is amazing. I wish that I could buy the scent. I tried an essential oil last year but it ended up smelling like disinfectant.
