cat warmth

 Now that the morning is getting on, and there is light coming in through the window. See the earlier antics as being strange, the awakening at half pas four in the morning and getting up and making coffee.

Feeling awake, feeling fine, ready to take on this last day at home for the next two weeks.

Then the bitter cold feeling in the legs and the arms, the doctor once explained that this is the blood circulation concentrating on keeping the vital organs warm, yes, this bitter cold makes going back to bed imperative, even though the feeling of diminished personal worth is strong. It just will not be possible to do all the things as intended today.

The cat makes noises, get up to feed her in the grey light from the mist-covered sky outside the window. Make another cup of coffee, then go and find the clothes on the chair beside the bed. Drink the coffee, the heavier day clothes and a pullover keep the legs and the arms warm. Wonder about the postulated infection.

There is no idea that would help the matter any further. The cat, having fed, jumps up onto the knees. She is pleasantly warm.
