The Cedar Fever has hit pretty hard the last few days. 'K' has it bad today. My youngest Granddaughter was scheduled to come today and stay a couple nights like usual. Her Dad is down with something. Seems worse than his usual Cedar Fever. He can't get in for a Covid test anywhere for at least 5 days. The walk ups have lines several blocks long. He is too sick to stay in line that long to find out what this is. His wife was sick and the baby and the in-laws that were here visiting were coming down with something as they left. So who knows The lines are longer than when all this first started nearly two years ago when testing became available and I remember those lines. I am hearing it's like that everywhere. I did see a conversation on the book of faces from some folks new to Texas. They were wondering if there were any allergens that were making them sick as they had never experienced anything like this. I do know that allergists make a very good living in this part of Texas. I wonder how many of those getting tested are experiencing Cedar Fever or a cold and are too terrified of the Covid to consider the other possibilities. Covid seems to not only make folks sick but robs them of their common sense too. Err on the side of safety is a good thing.
The weather is spectacular. Clear, cool, crisp at times. Dog walking is a very pleasant task. The big drawback, the cedar pollen kicks into overdrive. We have another cold front coming Thursday evening and some possible rain Saturday. Rain helps with the pollen.
Not much else, I am baking bread today and will make a pot of navy bean soup tomorrow. Right now I need to find something to put in my belly as it is just now lunch time.
Happy Trails
