It is No Fun Feeling Sick. 27 February 2017

When I awaoke around 4 this morning I had such a coughing spell that I figured out there was no way I would be able to sing.  So I decided to skip choir practice at 6.  In fact I went back to bed and awoke at about 7--and I never sleep soundly in the morning unless I am sick.  I looked out the window, and sure enough, the predicted snow had arrived and was still coming down.  I decided I would not walk the quarter of a mile to Mission Devotional, but would just go in to the Library at my scheduled time of 9.

It turned out to be a good thing for phone calls.  My oldest called and we talked for quite a while.  She told me she was glad I decided to take care of myself.  We talked also of future plans--and we will all be glad when my Sweetheart and I have a firm wedding date.

I got to talk quite a while with my Sweetheart a little later in the morning, more than we usually get to on Monday, which was very nice.

The first couple of hours at the Library were not too bad, but I spent most of my lunch hour in the lounge, where I did fall asleep at least briefly.  Then I had a stint as Monitor, and then a Trainers meeting to attend.  Some good things were accomplished in the Trainers meeting, but towards the end I started with a coughing spell so I had to leave.  I did not leave immediately for the apartment, but before 3:30 I realized my thinking was fuzzy and since almost nothing was happening with guests--the snow storm seems to have kept people away--I left.

When I got to the apartment I remembered that I had some turkey soup in the freezer from Thanksgiving--so I heated that up for my late lunch.  Then I took a nap, hoping to sleep for 2 hours, but managing only about one hour.

I tried to nap again, but was not successful, so I have been working on attaching some pictures of records to persons in my Family Tree so that I can get the photos off my iPad.  Yesterday I got a notice that my storage was nearly used up, so that is imperative.

Once I Skype with my Sweetheart I will head for bed, and I hope to feel better in the morning.
