Pneumonia Fronts Sicken Me!

No, really, they do.  Every time we have one I have a very brief period where I feel like I came down with a flu.  I also feel that way before a big storm comes.  I thought I was just weird, but my friend said that she felt it, too.  It's annoying!  My mom asked me if I had a barometer in my stomach.  Ha ha.  Not.

When the one moved through Memorial Day evening, my mom said she didn't believe me--or Vince, actually.  I don't know why, she's lived in Wisconsin her whole life--maybe she's just never heard of one before--but she was watching the weather segment and Vince said temperatures were dropping from 80 degrees down to about 50 and she said "What?  No way."  I'm lying facedown on her bed and she goes and opens the window and a gust of freezing air blows in.  "WHOA!  He's right!"

"Yeah, Mom," I said into the quilt, "I think he knows what he's talking about."

Thankfully these "flu"s only last for about ten minutes.  But every time there's a big change in weather?  Don't expect me to be looking bright and chipper.

I have that problem with my Fibromyalgia. When the temps have drastic changes it kills my joints and muscles.
All three of my children had sinus colds because of the changes. Between the high humidity and then the chilly winds it's easy to get sick.

There are a lot of problems in the world, and if I'm the one to change them . . . I've got God on my side and I'm up to the challenge!
