The NyQuil helped last night and I fell asleep fairly easily and stayed asleep until about 5. I had a long “coughing up stuff” time but it wasn’t as bad as the morning before. I was able to go back to sleep for a while.
I got up, gathered what I needed for Dudettes and headed out. I took bananas, applesauce, crackers, Sprite and cough drops with me. It was not the best breakfast I’ve had but it was okay. For lunch, I had the last thing on the BRATQ list – quesadilla. It was very good. (It isn’t really on the list, but don’t tell Rachel that!) Thankfully, I’ve had no real problems with digestion today, just some queasiness.
I was able to do some sewing at Dudettes, but I left early as I was quite tired. I came home and rested a while. No nap, unfortunately. Then about 5 I left for Book Club. We had a nice meeting and a wonderful supper, but I was totally worn out so I left early to get home.
Now, it’s almost 9:00 and I can barely stop yawning long enough to type. I will be going to shower and bed very soon.
So today was a nice day with my only complaints being getting so tired so easily and the coughing – I just don’t seem to be able to really quit coughing. I have to make a real effort to get a deep breath sometimes – I’m very tired of this.
Morning weight – 217.0 I knew the pizza would add pounds to my weight and it did. That’s just what happens when I eat pizza. (I broke down and bought a single layer coconut cake while at the store today. It is all the fault of ?? who has agreed to accept the calories since it’s her fault I was in that store to begin with!!!! Not really, it’s my fault!) oh well.
