Mh well, seems I do have holds, for a book I read yonks ago (memory says summer but maybe early fall) and had an ehold on, with 12 weeks wait, in order to reread. But though the sidewalks are clear and the sun shone, there was a wind chill of -12C so no, didn't go out to get it. Also I have either a cold or allergies or maybe a sinus infection and I cough from the post-nasal drip and my head aches. So a good day to stay in. Monday is a holiday, so Tuesday is early enough to pick it up. There are rumours Wednesday will be 6C, which I don't quite believe, but whatever, any snow that falls in the meantime will be gone by midweek.

Because I take water pills I also take potassium, but my potassium levels were not to my doctor's liking last time, so she instructed me to have a banana a day. Now my old doctor said Why add calories when you can just take a pill, which I agree with. But a banana a day doesn't stop the leg cramps so now I take potassium pills and bananas. For years I avoided bananas because I saw so many of them so often in so many states at work, but four years later I find them quite bearable, and also they make an acceptable evening snack. Better than crackers and butter, certainly.
