Winter Blahs

Sometimes you just can't stay ahead of it!  After some allergy issues through December, I came down with a head cold the week before Christmas until the week after New Year's.  Compromised immune system was followed by a tangle with shingles.  Shingles!!  Me!  Never thought I'd ever see the day - talked about getting the shingles vaccination but forgot about it.  So now I'll have to get one per doctor's advice.  I haven't gotten my strength back yet, so it's been nice to have a genealogy project for some church friends, the Covers.  We have had so much fun finding news articles about mystery people in their backgrounds and have had fun documenting major events in life.  I was very glad to have the project to keep the doldrums from setting in.
