I slept off and on a lot of the late afternoon, slept all night, woke up weak but okay. Down about 3.5 pounds, dehydrated as heck. I've been drinking a LOT of water. Electrolytes, water, all of it, I'm constantly slowly drinking something, right? It's now 6 pm on Sunday, I've been drinking almost non-stop since I could keep anything down, so yesterday afternoon, and when I go to the bathroom, rarely, it's still dark enough to prove I'm still dehydrated. I probably need an IV of fluids, but that's not going to happen, so it'll just have to get there when it gets there. But I just finished off another 17 oz of water and don't feel like it's made any difference at all, again. Unreal.
All I ate today was two eggs with some mozzarella and olives, around noon, and I haven't been hungry since. I'll try to eat one more thing before bed. Gotta eat to have energy, and tomorrow I'll need it.
I took down our decorations and lights from the Christmas tree today, got the nativity scene and everything boxed up and ready to go, and Steve was able to get it all back out to the garage. The tree itself still needs down, but I'll work on that later. Meanwhile, Steve took down our old lights from the deck, and is setting up to replace them with new ones. Our old ones had a bunch that quit working. So we've gotten a few projects done today, even if I'm moving kind of slowly.
Tomorrow I have a busy day. 8 am departure which means 6 am wake-up. Effingham, IL, then up to the Chicago area, then over to Buffalo, NY, and back. Fortunately most of it is spent sitting. If I had to do a lot of physical exercise I'd be in trouble, but I don't. My mind is clear, my muscles are just weak at the moment. Another good night's sleep won't hurt. :)
