"almost"

[Beverly Flanigan]

Our building custodian was just in my office, and as we were talking about
colds going around, she said, "Almost you can't seem to get over it"--or
something very close to that (I was interrupted as soon as she left, so my
STM is already suffering).  Have others heard this?  It's clearly similar
to positive "anymore," though negative here--and in fact she may have used
it in a positive construction; I can't recall for sure.  But it was clearly
sentence-initial.
