Still Not Totally Well

I didn't write last night, not because I didn't want to, but because I couldn't. And there really wasn't much about yesterday that would make it worthwhile to post retroactively. I didn't write, because I was asleep. I'm still not 100% sure if I have allergies or a mild cold going on. I spent the day in bed, surfing Facebook, watching a Law & Order: SVU marathon. Nothing too exciting. Around 3:30pm Snookums made me get up and make myself a smoothie (because I hadn't bothered to eat anything all day. I just didn't feel like it), and since there was a windstorm headed our way, I went ahead and made a few smoothies just in case we lost power. We did lose power, but only for 6 minutes (yes, I counted). That has to be a record for us. I don't think we've ever had power restored that promptly. I was thankful for it, though. Laying in bed is not as much fun when you don't have satellite and wifi!

The reason I couldn't write last night came about around 6pm. Snookums convinced me to take a couple allergy pills. He neglected to tell me they were basically just Benadryl, and knocked me the fuck out! I slept from about 6:30pm until almost 11am this morning! I didn't eat or drink anything, or go to the bathroom, I just slept. And when I did finally wake up, I spent half the day feel drugged and groggy. This never would have happened with cannabis, and yet people are totally comfortable with pharmaceuticals, but weed is the enemy? I beg to differ. Even though the Benadryl did help my symptoms, it made me feel like a zombie. No thanks.

So, today was another day of nothing. Mostly because I didn't have the energy to push myself to do anything. And I'm still not totally well. My throat is sore and I've got a little cough. I hate not feeling well. It happens so rarely, that I'm not the best at coping. I just want to feel amazing again!

Snookums took me out to dinner, probably his sweet attempt at getting me out of the house, but I didn't really enjoy it. I haven't had anything but smoothies and raw fruits, so eating Mexican wasn't ideal. I ordered veggie enchiladas, ate 3 or 4 bites, and gave up. I'm sure once my throat isn't hurting as much I'll be able to eat more. For now, smoothies feel good.

Tomorrow it's back to work. And of course we have another DM visit. I miss the days when we rarely every had a visit. We used to go years. Now she's here twice a month minimum. Times have changed, our store definitely has.
