This has been the longest day in the history of my life. I've slept a lot, but every time I wake up and see the clock, I am amazed at how little time has gone by.  How can it feel like hours when it has been only minutes? I guess I should have turned off the phone. 

A cold (with cough/sore throat/headache/earache) has sidelined me and I have not done a darn thing today that was useful. I was supposed to meet with a woman this afternoon regarding her son's rehearsal dinner, but I had to beg off. No one at the florist shop (nor the groom's mother) needs to be side-lined with what I have; I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. This is day five, I think, and it's about time for it to leave. I have too much to do!

In spite of it all, I have had the munchies today. A cold usually makes me not want to eat much at all, but today I can't seem to get full. I have been drinking hot peppermint tea all day too. I need desperately to go to the grocery, but I can't seem to muster enough energy for that. Grocery shopping is a detested chore for me, even when I feel my best. I will have to do it tomorrow, otherwise my munchies will be cured by default. There will be nothing much to eat. 

I want to be in "clean out and toss" mode, but I don't feel well enough to start again. About all I can do is think about where I might start cleaning out, once I feel well enough to begin. 

One good thing that seems to have come out of this is that my sleeplessness; coupled with tossing and turning seems to have abated. At least it did last night, as I slept the sleep of the dead and woke up in the same position as when I went to bed. I'm sure I must have moved around at some point....lol

Molly, my grand dog is here again, and she is almost as lethargic as I am. She went out on the deck a few minutes ago and couldn't even muster enough energy to bark at the squirrels, who were, despite a misty rain, playing in the woods, running up and down trees and chasing each other. I think she misses her mother. It is both sweet and ridiculous how devoted those two are to each other. But I have six grand dogs and they are all spoiled rotten  (as it should be.)
