The Day After

Definitely not a good night. I finally ran a temperature (not surprising with chills and a headache). I didn't take any meds because I couldn't stomach anything. Advil on a totally empty stomach isn't a good idea. I rode it out with the strangest dreams. 

This morning I had a piece of toast and tea -- both are settling well. My stomach isn't great, but the nausea is gone which feels so good. My headache is gone too. Basically left feeling run over and sore from being in bed for too long.

Fingers crossed that was the end. I'm not sure what today holds, but I'll take it easy. It's that strange state that you don't feel well enough to do anything, but you're not sleepy-tired and you are sick of sitting still. It's like an uncomfortable restlessness. The land between sick and well. 

My bed buddy this morning. He stays clear when you're sick (little germaphobe) so it's a good sign he jumped up for a cuddle.

I have an interesting mix of a week ahead. Nothing major but a couple FS things that I want to keep on the calendar. They're going to require a little bit of pushes (a night class, a hard hike). I also need to use this week for prep for the hosting events coming up. I can't lose an entire week. I've bought exact ZERO Christmas gifts. Nothing is decorated except my book tree. Eeek --stresses me out just thinking about it. I haven't done any of my holiday crafts either.

Of course, we end the week babysitting the grand baby for 3 days. So much fun and so much work. I'm excited and nervous. 

Breath. I can do all this. AND, I can enjoy all this. Hopefully. 

Hope you're set for a good week ahead. Later gators.
