Boy. What a week. I am so happy that I went to my volunteer appreciation dinner. I may pursue another venue of (quasi)-volunteering. I am not sure if that is the correct term, I suspect not. LOL. But this is something that comes with a small stipend.
Had bad news when I arrived home Monday night, my senior is not doing well. I have been talking to family member's who are understandably worried. My good friend is now in a nursing home, at least it is close by and I will be able to visit her. I am hopeful that I will be able to visit my senior as well. In times of trouble I become the child I used to be and said my prayers that night. I prayed that they be kept in the best health they could be and that I stay well enough to do what I can for them. The next morning it took me almost two hours to wake up and get up. That never happens to me, I awaken like a jack-in-the-box. It took me until almost 9:30a to realize that I was sick. I made a decision that I would stay home, I almost had no choice.
I did not go to my 10a meeting, did not see my friend or my senior and did not turn my computer on again that day. Instead I slept the entire day. I can't remember when I have done that--it must be years. Apparently I needed the rest, so my body made me do, what common sense was telling to do--slow down :-( Yesterday, I work up at my regular early a.m. time and haven't looked back. Tuesday, I even had a low-grade fever.
Today I feel as if I have never had a sick day. Very odd-but I try not to question some things. You just have to believe that the sun will come out tomorrow.
