Health update

Sunday evening around 6:30 I turned off the TV and picked up a book. Mosaic Woman went downstairs to make me dinner.

I had eaten a smaller lunch and was willing to take on a slightly larger dinner. Belly did generally OK though it made a few noises, being baffled by the presence of so much food for the first time in 96 hours.

So I made an assumption. If my digestive system had settled and my body had been fed... I was set to teach on Monday. So off I went.

Standing still proved to be less than fun as I tended to feel disoriented (how was I to know after 4 days in the bed). I was not feverish or achy. But I was not exactly sharp in mind. Students were informed of my energy level and how it related to my patience and responded kindly for the most part.

I am thinking about giving this wiped out body a day of rest tomorrow... not for bad TV. Well, maybe some. But there is a school gardening grant deadline looming, a seed order set to go but not made...

so I may take a day to rest and restore my spirit and lift some burdens from my shoulders at the same time. we will see.

  4. This surely sounds like it may have been more than just a bad disagreement with a bit of turkey. Get your strength back, my friend.....
