I took it easy for the most part today

My throat still hurts and I still feel kind of bad. I have muscle spasms in both my legs.
I drank lots of fluids and I read my library book. I finished it.
I did pack up some things to send home with my daughter when she comes next week.
Bob is in bed. I stayed in bed late this morning, so I am just now ready to go to sleep.
The cats are inside and have been fed. So that is good.

Hopefully you will feel better soon since the comeback is better than the setback.

That sounds like a pretty good saying.

I did feel much better. She said she had something similar a few weeks back. We got stuff done, and visited and then she drove back home.

I'm so sorry you're still not feeling well. Get lots of rest and hydrate!!!

That is a really good reminder. Bob and I both need more fluids.

I hope you can rest and feel better. I know it's not fun to be sick when you are the caregiver! Been there, done that, it's sort of stressful. Take good care, Heather.

I have been care giving for family for about thirty years now, and yes, sometimes it gets stressful when I am not at my best.

Oh, do I ever know that feeling. And I am sure sometimes you really just want to rest, and you can't.

Hopefully if you get a good night's sleep tonight you will feel well tomorrow.

Getting enough sleep sure has been helpful.

They will not let me rest if I do not. I also have to have them inside at night before I sleep.

It was pretty mild, possibly allergies as well as a cold. I got over it fast.

He hasn't been for quite a while. We do okay, though.

I did get better really quickly. Sometimes I do not. It is beautiful here today.
