The Adventures Of Tonsil Girl: Day 4

Today is a far improvement since yesterday, my gawd I hope not to have another day like that again. If I do, those are the days that I very literally can't do much of anything except get through the day and wait out the pain.

But since today isn't one of those days and I can swallow ok and am not experiencing was is known as "referred pain" as badly, I plan to:

a) Really focus even more on the fluids. I am beyond thirsty, even though I'm drinking a fair amount of fluids, I just can't seem to get enough. It might be the creepy taste/texture of my mouth, it's like I can't get enough to wash it down/out.

b) Clean house a touch. It's in remarkabley good shape and no one panic, I'm only going to dust and fold some laundry, that kind of thing. No heavy lifting or strenous excercise.

c) We are going to try and get to the grociery store after Dave gets off work. The puggies need food, we need TP that kind of thing. Plus, I kinda feel ready to get out of the house for a bit. I also really need to think of something else I can try to eat, maybe starting working on some noodles or something b/c the pudding thing, while delicious, is getting old.

d) REST, I still feel like I could sleep for a week.

In other news, there are bills to be paid and emails to be answered. Still waiting on the books I ordered over a week ago, sigh...some good ones in there too danget! Hurry up USP. Guess I should be checking on all the "admin" stuff I need to be doing.

Everyone, please wish me luck in that this day continues to be a "good" day b/c I know there's going to be good and bad ones in the coming weeks. Yesterday reminded me of that very much so I'm going to take the ones where I can do more than sit on the couch and ache and run with it. It also helped me to remember that those crappy parts will pass, they always do don't they?
