I slept in the bed for a three-hour stretch last night with little coughing and no shivering.
In even better news, Mike also slept in the bed for most of the night and even slept so late this morning that I tiptoed into the bedroom where he was sleeping and checked on him. That soft snore was a wonderful sound!
Since the sleeping in the bed for three-hours has happened two nights in a row - even though on night one it was a two hour stretch and then an additional hour after sitting in the chair and sleeping for a couple of hours, I have declared that I am on the way to being almost well.
To me that means I've got to tackle a project. It is not one of those projects that I thought about for months and then figured out exactly how I was going to tackle it. This project is much simpler than that.
I am going to work on getting the Christmas decorations here inside the house put away. Yesterday, I went downstairs and dug out the tubs which hold the ornaments for the tree. I put them in the wagon and pulled that to the kitchen. Today, I plan to put ornaments into one of those tubs. If I have the stamina, I might undecorate both trees. I cannot believe I just entered that paragraph. There once was a day that I could have done all of that and more within an hour timeframe. Old age and sickness ain't for sissies!
Of course, at some point I will have to put groceries away and put something together for dinner. So, we shall see how many items off the list I have in front of me get crossed off!
