cold

It's that dreaded time of the year. Your body starts to ache. Your nose may start to run. Oh wait now it's your throat. It's on fire. In 2020 it is even worse. I mean now you have to check to see if you lost your sense of smell or taste. Are you running a fever. Getting sick this year is even worse.

It is hard to escape the season without catching a cold. Even if it is just for a day or two those days can feel bad. You want relief as soon as you possibly can. You just want to feel better.

It's bad enough to see the first signs of winter in late October, but then we have to deal with all the other stuff that comes with it.

When the thermometer dips as low as it has here in the Texas panhandle, have you made sure that your pets are prepared for the cold temps too?

Get ready for frigid temperatures and the chance of wintry precipitation coming to the Texas panhandle.

Looking at the calendar and seeing we about halfway through October now we know winter is just around the corner. Is the thought of laying in bed all snug as a bug seem like a dream right now. Oh how good that feels.

This year has brought many challenges. Getting through 2020 has brought us many firsts. Of course we started the spring off with the virus. We lost our sports. We have lost jobs. Our celebrations got cancelled or postponed.

We all know that the weather in Texas can get wacky, but we never expected this to happen in Tulia.

We will be getting to cold and flu season before long. This will be an unusual one this year. Is it a cold? Is it the flu? Or is it covid? How do we know which steps to take? I mean do we just ride it out like we would a cold?

It is so silly to me that this is the only time we are concerned so much about washing our hands. We have a cold and flu season every year. So it just makes sense that we should ALWAYS be concerned with washing up.

With all of this talk of Coronavirus we know the best way to avoid it is by washing our hands. We have to be more diligent in doing just that. Just think of all the stuff we touch throughout the day.

Just thinking about how dirty that cell phone is....I mean you know it is? Right? It right now as we speak covered in bacteria. Enough to even get you sick. Do you ever seem to clean it?
