Ok, apparently all that sleep from the weekend, plus what must have been like 10+ hours last night, hasn't quite done the trick. I woke up (when I eventually did ... so much for asking M not to let me sleep like more than X hours or past Y... oof) with a hoarse voice, headache and general semi-icks. Turned today and its plans for more adventurous grocery shopping and cooking and house work into "loaf day" instead -- sitting around, loafing, playstationing, not going out, lunch from the freezer (the shiny, spiffy, glossy NEW freezer), and dinner from delivery Chinese place. 'Cuz all I really wanted was soup -- and since my bro hasn't been amenable to FedExing me any of his chicken udon broth soup and its glorious unctuous broth to me -- I settled for miso soup.
Ok and later I caved and had apple brown betty pie. Plus about a half dozen mugs of hot tea. And a handful of advil. Well, not all at once.
And now I'll try sleeping again.
Oh, and M has decided to stay as far away from my potential germs as possible and has relocated again to the guest room. See, he's doing so damn well and ahead of schedule, and ahead of me, that now it's me who has been run ragged and has to catch up! Hope for better days later this week as we are trying to make our first post-op extended foray and go to Boston to see our nephew.
And naturally his lovely parents too. ;-)
Peace
