Survival Mode

I’m feeling considerably better today. I was pretty out of it all day yesterday, but I can see now that a lot of that was from not sleeping the night before. I had a lukewarm/cool bath in the evening, which actually woke me up just a little, enough to watch a show and stay awake past 9pm. But I fell asleep well and slept until about 9:45, which was awesome!! So I say again, I feel way better today.

I’m not at 100% yet, by any means. From throwing up so much yesterday, my neck is absolutely killing me. Also, my throat is quite sore, both from puking and the pre-existing cold from a few days before I got sick. However, both of those things I can handle. I took a couple of Advils as son as I realized how stiff my neck was. However, I could tell for about 45 minutes that they weren’t all the way down. Finally, after bread, broth, and water, I got them down. Dekker had breakfast (lunch, really) and played downstairs. I’m not quite in the “crawling around the floor” kind of mood today so he brought his toys over and played in my lap. He lasted less than an hour and is now back in bed.

I will likely spend any downtime today catching up on my crocheting while stretched out in front of the tv. Don’t judge please. Yesterday, I felt like I had been hit by a bus. Maybe I don’t feel that way today, but I feel like I was hit by a bus yesterday! Still counts.
