Yesterday afternoon I took a nap on the couch and woke up feeling something was missing. It was. My massive headache was gone!
What a difference that makes. I still have an achiness in my head (if that's possible) but that awful pressure is gone. I've turned a corner.
I'm still coughing deeply and I will be for quite a while, I think, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to go to work tomorrow. I'm planning on grocery shopping today, but nothing more than that.
Being sick is money-saving. I haven't spent anything, nor used any gas. The main thing I've been doing is making good use of my Netflix subscription. I watched all 8 episodes of Bleak House (great!), a movie called Red Road (Scottish dialogue, couldn't understand half of it), and several other things I can't even remember now. And I finished one book (Ten Year Nap -- so-so) and am into another (Someone Else's Daughter -- promising). I've managed to do some laundry, and I even got my new heated mattress pad on the bed, which has been a great comfort.
I did a bit of cooking and I'm slowly getting back to normal. Man, I hate being sick!
Finally!

Funny about the Scottish brogue. I've been up in the
gr-r-reen Highlands where it was so thick, I thought they were speaking Gaelic! I was embarrassed to keep asking those good folks to repeat what they said.
