Felt Like Junk.........

“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”

Thich Nhat Hanh

Whatever was ailing me on Friday,was still hanging around yesterday, hence I did not write to you.

Although the achiness had subsided quite a bit, I could feel that something still wasn't kosher. I was tired, sleepy and a bit sluggish.

As was the case Friday, I was not about to let a whole day slip away so after dropping Susan at the shop, I set out on some errands.

A Home Depot run to return some stuff, then home to hook up a thermostat.

Of course that mandated a trip to Lowes for a tiny screwdriver before I could complete that job.

Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem from when we did the construction so for the time being we remain without heat.

After grabbing a quick lunch with Max, I decided that I had done enough and that it was time to surrender to whatever is ailing me.

I plopped down on the couch and before I knew it I had taken a quick, and very uncomfortable nap.

I woke up with a chill which kind of hung around for the rest of the day.

When Susan got home, we ran out, had some dinner and then went mattress shopping, something I have been putting off for way to long.

The new mattress arrives this Friday and one can only hope that the investment was a wise one and that both Susan and I will benefit from this purchase.

One should not wake up daily with a back ache!

Even though I felt like junk, I was unhappy that I did not write yesterday.

I kept telling myself that I really had no excuse and that I should sit down and write.

Obviously, that message has taken a full 24 hours to sink in.

It's getting near time to head back to work.

First I'll pop a few Advil. maybe grab a cup of tea and then off for some fun and frolicing behind the wheel once again.

Shavua Tov!
