I woke up this morning with a sore throat, which pissed me off. It's SUNDAY. I wanted to have fun today. After all, yesterday started with a trip to the dentist. Doesn't a gal deserve to have fun?
So I went to Whole Foods to see if there was anything I could take to help me feel better. I settled on Nature Way's Umcka Cold Care Soothing Hot Drink (lemon flavor). And I do feel better. I'm still a few quarts low on energy and I can't concentrate on anything very long, but my throat is less irritated.
If it wasn't for the fact that all I got to do today was three loads of wash and set up my new 20" Sylvania TV, I'd be completely happy. But as it is, I still kinda resent that my weekend was weakened by this cold.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Grandma Bucholz always said take a spoon of honey followed by a shot of whiskey every 1/2 hour....after a few hours, you won't feel ANYTHING!
ReplyDeleteFeel better, Gal. Sorry your Sunday was ruined.
ReplyDeleteWell, I hope you're feeling better on this Monday morning; but, of COURSE you *are*, as I assume you're headed back to WORK (Murphy's Law #4)
ReplyDeleteGet well soon.
I wanna hear more about the Sylvania.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling much better soon.
