I slept this morning until 11, then got up after reading for a bit. I am feeling a bit better, I think, but still have coughing fits. The congestion seems to be way up inside my head, although my body still feels like hell when I do have a coughing spell. My ribs/ribcage just aches so bad when it's happening, and when it's over. But I'm thinking I'll survive now.
I ate my lunch - a normal lunch for me (chicken salad, walnuts, and a banana) - around 2:30. By that time, I had already done a load of laundry, and put away the load of towels from the other day, as well as a little piddling around here in the living room. Nothing really interesting, just picking things up, moving stuff from here to there, stuff like that. I also tried to do a little bit of figuring what was gonna get done with our money this weekend, but that was too depressing, so I quit. Between groceries and the drugstore, which I can't factor a true price into, it was a sad effort. I know what MUST be paid, and I think that's gonna be that.
Once I got on the pute, though, that's where I stayed the rest of the afternoon. I did manage to start a second load of laundry after the first one finally got dry. It only took 3 go-rounds this time....geez. Anyone got a spare dryer in their back pocket?
Ron got home around 5:30, and we discussed what we wanted for supper, but neither of us really knew. He also did his Wii, and he had gained a little bit. We blamed that on his birthday weekend! We were still dithering about supper, and he went to take his shower.
I went & got pork chops out of the freezer & had them defrosting in the microwave when he came out. He fussed a little, but said that pork chops sure sounded good. We decided to have boiled potatoes and a veggie as a real meal for a change. He peeled the potatoes, and I 'chunked' them and put them in the pot, and I opened a can of veggies (finally deciding on mixed veggies, which was silly, because that has potatoes in it, but....).
We watched game shows on TV as we ate supper, and until it was time for Criminal Minds, which was a rerun. Blah. So is CSI, which is on now. Blah some more.
When I put my food into MFP, it says that I am over 300 calories OVER for the day. I don't understand how or why. We've had the same food before, and that hasn't happened before. Maybe I misjudged how many potatoes I had or something. I'm not going to worry about it. It's just weird.
I'm going to walk with Lois tomorrow morning - it really is Thursday tomorrow morning this time! I just lost track with this cold, I suppose. I knew it was Tuesday yesterday, but thought 'tomorrow' was Thursday when I wrote my blog. Weird. I'll be glad when I get some of my mind back.....
