Suddenly we are looking for mittens and scarves and keep the windows shut!! Not quite but almost frost this morning. I had forgotten how cold air stings the face and ears when cycling downhill. Last night after I had taken this picture on my way home, I was just so miserably cold that I had to moan for a while about five months of this etc. until I found some decent cat movies on the internet. As usual, R just ignored my complaints.
One month since the 3rd monoclonal antibody treatment and I am slowly beginning to feel more alive, trusting the level of energy to not drop suddenly and in the middle of things - it still happens but not as dramatically as during the summer. I'll go with the flow for the time being, some days are best forgotten, others are brilliant. Four more medical appointments this month, I am losing the plot here. Anyway, thank heavens for this country's socialist health insurance. This month started expensive, I paid 10 Euros for 12 weeks medication.

I envy you your socialized medicine AND your cool weather. Also sounds like you're doing a little better. I hope so, anyway.

Your tree-lined lane in the October light is so beautiful. Lifts my spirits this afternoon before I start work. I keep losing my balance emotionally. Have you see the "if-cats-said-hey-instead-of-meow" video? Not sure where I saw that. Maybe on Facebook? I need to watch that again (-:

This is wonderful news! Oh, Sabine! May things get better, bit by bit by sure bit.

I love your socialist medicine, wish we had it here. Nice 37˚F this morning, 3C. Yeah, and that metric system, too.

I'm glad things are looking up! And yes, yay for socialistic medicine! We've had to turn the heat on in the morning, it's already so chilly here.

Love the light in this October photo. So glad you've been out cycling even in the fall chill air. I wish we had socialized medicine here. But you know we really need to keep the private insurance industry very very rich.
