Sick in Bed

"There is one consolation in being sick; and that is the possibility that you may recover to a better state than you were ever in before." ~ Henry David Thoreau

I have spent the day in bed feeling little energy. At 4:30 this morning, I awoke feeling violently ill. I have not been that bad since I was in Africa a few years ago. It is a horrible feeling and one of the times in life when I feel sad to be single and alone in the house without anyone to help care for me.

As night falls, I have done very little to prepare for my trip tomorrow. I must pack, clean and do a few things that must happen prior to departure. I am unsure how much of them will get down yet tonight. I canceled lunch and supper plans and finally ate some oatmeal which seems to be staying down. Tomorrow I have lunch plans with the family. I guess the food I have left in the house can be shared with them.

I am hoping that the rest I got today will help with a restful start to the trip.

Peace,

Suzanne
