From yesterday....

I was going to post this yesterday, but, well, I didn't.....

I'm starting to get tired of being sick. It started Saturday late in the day with that annoying flem that's just stuck in your throat and you can't get rid of. Sure enough when I woke up Sunday morning I felt craptastic. So I spent most of the day lounging on the sofa. Monday at work sucked, sore throat, congestion and general achyness. Tuesday and Wednesday were much improved and yesterday I felt just fine for Thanksgiving. But I woke up in the middle of the night stuffy and with a sore / dry throat. It's the same sicky I get every year when summer slowly and erraticly changes into fall. I blame it on the crazy hot-cold-warm-cold change in temperature. And every year I only get sick enough to feel bad, never enough to call in to work. Some people I've known get the same thing but lose their voice. Never me. How nice it would be to not be able to talk. It sounds crazy, I know, but my jobs always require lots of talking. So anyway I've spent most of today lounging much like Sunday. Drinking tea and water and taking a nice hot shower. I'm hoping to feel much improved by a good night's sleep tonight and able to get out and about tomorrow and also to do chores around the house. I don't want this to be the second weekend in a row where not much got done.

I'd especially like to get to the Farmer's Market. That was my big plan for this past Sunday. After having gone through on of my phases where I didn't have an appetite for much of anything by last Saturday I'd begun to have a craving for foods again. Real food. I had decided that processed, packaged foods had a bad after taste so I needed to make some good food that was mostly vegetarian. I had a nice list for myself. But that all went out the window when I felt too ill to go to the Farmer's Market. Most of this week I haven't been very hungry and nothing has tasted good either. But I am once again I am starting to crave good home cooked food. I have to keep in mind though that I have Thanksgiving leftovers to work through. I also need to keep in mind that I need to start managing my money better. I spend WAY too much money at the grocery store too many days a week.
