My cold is going to lift in time for Christmas. I can feel it! Or I’m just making it up. But I’m counting on it, anyway!
I was in rough shape yesterday evening, and Brady told me I could load up on cold meds and knock out for the night, so I did. I know at one point, my coughing woke Waverly, and I know Brady got up and fed her, but I don’t remember that part. Whoops. My bad. Sorry, guys. With that though, and Brady’s willingness to do the morning for me, I slept in beautiful until around 9:30. I’m not all better by any means, but I can feel improvement is on the horizon! I’m not holed up in bed, miserable, but I’m resting my voice and body, and they’re both SO thankful. They told me.
Brady and I are part of the music at our church’s Christmas Eve service, so I really need a voice before then! And ideally I’d have one through the rest of the season.
Today has been successful. I have some voice, unlike yesterday, but I’m using it sparingly. I’m still hiding out upstairs for most part. Drinking water and trying to eat more than just cough candies. I did have a quick outing today, though. Going out seemed to make my body happy, to move around and get some fresh air. It was good to be around people again, too. I feel so fortunate to have the chance to just hide and rest and recoup, but I also miss my people.
I hope you’re all well this week, or at least well in time for Christmas! Now is NOT the time of year to be riddled with illness! Stay healthy, my friends.
