...And I'm Yawning Again....

I've decided that because I haven't been feeling well, I'll stay home today instead of hiking. And take a nice long nap. My eyes look puffy. Still no fever this morning though.

I started reading Grandma Gatewood's Walk last night, and wow, she was hiking the Appalachian Trail with hardly any supplies. Tough grandma. It gives me hope that I could at least section hike. I'd like to do the Virginia part. There are showers and restaurants. My kind of "roughing it". :-P

I've decided that Mimi is the opera singer of cats. She went Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaow. Not bad for a creature with tiny lungs.

The Census people are still contacting me about a part-time job, but I still think not doing it was a good call. Peoria, where their office is, is spiking COVID cases.

Napped for three hours intentionally. Can't tell if it's helped yet. Feeling kind of shaky. I'm feeling wiped out, but need to get bread. Maybe I could wait and go to Walgreens, although I'm sure that their bread is more expensive.

Ate, got my clothes ready for a shower, and took another nap. Now I'm feeling better. Made it to the grocery store and grabbed some bread. Got back so quickly that the laundry in the washer wasn't done yet. One advantage of small towns.

Talked to Mom. We talked about how nothing's going on in our lives, and she's glad that I'm going back to the library, which should prove to be "interesting" in all senses of the word. She thinks that stress is causing me to not feel well. She was concerned about my wanting to go camping until I told her that it would be on private property with baby goats. She said that sounded charming. We discussed how many Girl Scout songs were trying to get the singers to swear ("Amster-Amster-Damn-Damn-Damn," etc.)

Made some tomato soup and grilled cheese. Spent some time Googling my last name. I think that I'm going to bed early.
