Well, Thursday I went to Walmart and got this very reasonably priced webcam. I've been able to have a couple of very enjoyable Zoom visits with my brothers, one who lives just out of town and the other in Florida. The camera is only in black and white but the resolution is pretty good. But I fear this might have been the trip where I got my cold, possibly a combination of the aggravating 23 degree weather and being out in public in a plague vector. By Friday evening I was beginning to have the symptoms of a runny nose and sore throat, and Saturday it was just terrible as I wandered in a Roman wilderness of phlegm. Today I am feeling a bit better, taking regular doses of Vitamin C with Zinc. The most aggravating result is that it has affected two of my resolutions: I haven't walked for two days and I missed church today for the first time this year. On the up side I have lost 13.8 pounds since I started recording it, my glucose averages about 130, and my sister just brought me some Campbell's chicken noodle soup and some Sprite Zero.
