I'm sick - Friday, May 9th, 2025

 Hello (again?) dear Reader, and welcome to this free to read (YAY!) simple American blog; as I sit to write here, it's about six-fifteen in the early evening. It sure has been hot today (but, yes, I'm in southern Arizona). 



Today I woke up with fever and chills and have spent the entire day and night in bed, sleeping on and off, drinking as much fluid as I can, focusing on water and only threw up once first thing this morning. (Sorry, that's gross). Two of my friends just had this whatever-it-is and one of them just got home from a couple of days in the hospital, being infused with multiple back to back bags of saline - which is why I'm focused on hydration myself; I go to the ER all the time and try to avoid it as much as possible. Like anyone else, I just want to be home with my hubby and creatures. 




All I've eaten today is a handful of grapes; for my part, it's so strange because I am a healthy person unafraid of eating a full (hopefully balanced) plate of food, but am just not feeling that today. And I was going to make homemade chicken fried steak today for dinner. Oh, well. Hubby is so sweet, he's grazing on fruit as well and I think he had a bowl of cereal earlier. 

I decided to eat a fresh peach and had to hand it off to Terry because I'm too weak to break it open, even cut. πŸ™„ And I just realized that I haven't taken any meds today, so I'll do that real quick. yikes. I'm sure it's fine, and will just try to remember PM meds before going to sleep for the night tonight, and I still don't have any real appetite which is fine by me. I'm looking forward to the cool of night once the Sun goes down; yes, it's hot to live in Arizona, but here we get a nightly reprieve that can't be beaten. 

Thanks for stopping by for a couple of minutes of your time, dear Reader and may all eyes who read these words be blessed, in Jesus' Name, amen.
