I feel a bit better this morning. I probably owe it to Whole Foods. I went there yesterday and bought many bad things, like pinapplemint juice and cayennemintagave juice, plus a huge zuchini muffin. I did, however, restrain myself from the bakery and the bite sized devil brownies and macaroons. But then I hit the middle part of the store. Even worse for the purse than the middle of Costco. I found an infinity scarf I "needed" then looked at the huge shelf of cold remedies. I'd never heard of any of them, but finally settled on drops that promised so much, like breathing through my nose, sleeping at night without coughing and other fairy tales. I'd never heard of any of the ingredients, so that seemed like a good sign. I can't take antihistamines because of my irregular heartbeat, but desperation does strange things. Nothing on the box SAID antihistamines, and each word had at least 27 letters, which looked professional to me. So I bought the toxic substance, and took that and my last two tylenol at bedtime. I'd had a fever of 101 all day, so I was somewhat delirious, and a cough was starting up that was hurting pretty bad. And I had a good sleep until three in the morning, when the dogs again decided the creature from the black lagoon was in our back yard. But they quieted after a barking attack at their hallucinations, and I went back to sleep and slept until 7:30. It was a MIRACLE!
So I took my drops this morning, and felt better on the dog walk. My husband is coming home today so he can deal with the dogs tonight, and I can whine and complain first hand. The last few days have been tough, because I could only complain on the phone, due to being in self imposed quarantine. My poor husband, he should probably stay in hiding at the cabin.
