Resting is harder than one might think...

So I am a bit better but still am sick - congested and so so tired. I managed to drag myself to work for part of the day yesterday and get my projects into shape so I would take my vacation next week. I really did not want to have to go into work next week. I wanted the whole week off and all that free time. But really - that partial day of work knocked me out and lay me flat. I got a bit worried and went in to see the doctor today just to be sure I did not have some walking form of pneumonia or bronchial thing happening. I just wanted her to listen to my lungs and tell me all was clear. She did and all is clear. She said I just need to rest and gave me some good suggestions on over the counter things to do - hydrate, regular Robitussun and Tylenol. Low tech and very do-able.

This rest thing is not easy for me. I find I have trouble just doing that and am used to doing things. I guess I have an active mind or am hyper-active. Doing nothing is not so easy.

So that is what is going on. Trying to do nothing and rest. Sipping tea and watching Law and Order reruns on the television. Turning down invitations to do things. I don't have a clear idea of what is going on for Thanksgiving. Some sort of food but the menu has not come together yet. We might come up with a non-turkey plan (gasp).

Anyhoo. Hope you are well and having a good weekend. Cheers to you and yours.
