It was a weekend
and all it did was show me that I'm still sick.
G was on call this weekend (and all week this week). So he had to be available should he get paged. This means we can't go more than about 30 minutes from a computer at any time in the event he gets paged.
Friday night. we stayed in. He did some work, I watched tv and crocheted.
Saturday, I was feeling better so we decided to try to get some holiday shopping done. We headed out to Natick. Went to Walmart, then to the Natick mall. Had lunch at Johnny Rocket's, We were about halfway through the mall when G got paged. It was fine with me as I was starting to feel kind of weak and tired anyway. He returned the call and it turns out to be something fairly minor that he doesn't need the computer for anyway. We headed out to the car. While he dealt with the issue in the car I put the seat back and closed my eyes. After about 20 or 30 minutes, he finished and I was feeling better. So we went back into the mall. I got some ice cream at Haagan Daaz and sat while G finshed doing some shopping. Then we went to the bookstore. Dangerous place for me. I got a couple books, not for Christmas, and a couple to give. Then to the craft store. I got nothing in the craft store this time, I was looking for somespecific beads that I'll probably have to order online since I haven't found them locally (Yes, I have been to all the local bead stores, several times.) So we didn't get anything in the craft store. by then it had gotten dark and I was really wiped out. so we went home.
We didn't go to any parties, I'm still fighting some nasty bug, (four weeks now) I didn't want to pass it on, or pick up anything else with my system being down already. We were going to bottle some homemade liqueur that was about three weeks past it's bottle date, but discovered we were out of corks and the brew store where we buy them was already closed for the day. We ended up sitting around watching TV. I gave the cat a bath because she smelled bad. She was so mad at me all night.
Sunday, we did grocery shopping and then around 11 G got paged. He was working with that customer and another page came in. He worked both customers until around 4:30 in the afternoon. about mid afternoon, I asked him if he wanted me to go get the corks, he said no, and we ended up running out to get them around 4:30 or 5PM. He got a page while we were out, but it wasn't something he needed to respond to. I spent the day working on my projectile points, and playing on the computer.
Coming back from getting corks, we stopped at the local pizza joint for subs for dinner.
G got started on the liqueur bottling, I watched some TV, worked more on the projectile points, and babysat the bottling when he had to go do other stuff.
I crashed around 11 last night. I was asleep before he came in.
I had a rough night last night. I woke up twice with night sweats, and then after that I woke up three or four times shivering. I felt like I couldn't get warm. I wasn't feeling feverish, My skin was actually cold to the touch under the blankets. This morning I woke up nauseous, and with stomach cramps, which I'm attributing to the anti-biotic wreaking havoc with the flora in my system. I don't know, maybe it's this bug finally starting to let go of my system. Maybe I just overdid it this weekend.
Wish I felt better, I have so much to do this week. baking, cleaning (I always have to wash the kitchen floor after bottling cranberry liqueur, it gets quite sticky.) and other stuff. Well, if I go slow and don't try to do too much all at once, it'll get done. Like I said to G yesterday, I just want to feel healthy and have stamina again, it's been so long since something didn't hurt or I didn't feel so tired all the time.
Such a mundane life.
