I am almost fully recovered from the cold I got last Monday evening. Did some more sewing. Recently I found that changing our pillows to brand new ones and flipping, rotating, and vacuuming the mattress in our bedroom improved my mild, nightly asthma condition somewhat, so I ran some errands today to further determine if dust mites are indeed the problem. I only started having this condition a few months ago. I picked up a hygrometer at Radio Shack and bought some new bedding at Macy's. Cut my hair. Shopping with Patrick: Starbucks, World Market, Trader Joe's. Patrick and I set up the new bedding. I cooked dinner tonight: basil pesto pork chops with rosemary sprigs, steamed asparagus and mushrooms, leftover couscous. Pulled out the Restoration Hardware Ziva narcissus bulb kit I got for my secret Santa gift from December—the 5 bulbs had already started growing even though I had been ignoring it all this time. I unpacked the soil and planted and watered the bulbs in the clay pot included in the kit. They seem simple enough to care for. Thanks, Cindy!
