Wednesday:

Today was another sunny day.  According to the weather forecast, we won't have rain until later next week.  Fortunately, the ground is so wet, I won't have to water the garden before the next rain. 

I woke up feeling tired, today.  Plus, something I ate yesterday didn't agree with me.  I think it might have been the grapes I had after lunch, yesterday, because I had the same reaction when I ate some grapes earlier, during the weekend, and grapes are a natural laxative.  But I don't know for sure if my upset tummy was due to the grapes, or last night's fried chicken and coleslaw, or, more likely, a combination of everything.  Anyway, I called and spoke with my supervisor and we agreed that I'd work from home, today.  I had tea and crackers and half a banana and that seems to have settled my tummy.  My daughter was worried that I hadn't eaten enough and might experience low blood sugar, so I had a scrambled egg and half a baked potato for my dinner, followed by some jello.

I spent most of the day working on office stuff.  In between, I put away the washed dishes, put away the iron and the ironing board, listened to some music, opened a couple of windows to air out the house, and video chatted with my daughter.

This is not a very exciting post, is it?

Today, I am grateful for:
- Another sunny day.
- Being able to work from home as needed.
- Being complimented by my supervisor on the work I did on an assignment.
- My tummy settled itself.
- Access to music and videos on-line.

How was your Wednesday?

  1. Sorry you're not feeling too great Bless, an upset tummy is no fun and can leave you feeling really drained, so it's good you can work from home. Hopefully it will just be a 24 hour thing.

    Not too much going on here today either. I've done my housework so I'm going to get the sewing machine out now and sew up some little bags for a baby unit. That should keep me out of mischief and more importantly, out of the biscuit tin! xx

    1. Thank you, Suzanne. I am better, today. Have fun with your sewing. Good luck with keeping out of the biscuit tin! But, if you do find yourself reaching for a biscuit, have one on my behalf, too, please.

  2. I'm glad that you were able to work from home again. There's nothing worse than having an upset tummy while being in traffic and away from home. Glad it has settled down.

    1. Thank you, Live and Learn. No, it wouldn't have been fun driving in traffic under the circumstances! I'd probably have taken a day of sick leave if I couldn't have worked from home!

  3. Sending hugs. Your ground may be struggling to cope with the rain it's getting, so it may actually be an idea to stay off it! Speaking from waterlogged Yorkshire here. I hope you feel better soon. x

    1. Thank you, Lyssa. I am feeling much better, today. Been getting some rain, have you? :D I seem to have rather sandy soil, so drainage is pretty good. But this type of sustained rain is what the plants need. Everything is greening up very nicely. :)

  4. I hope you're feeling better today! I'm still under the weather and the weather is all gloomy so I plan on doing absolutely nothing all day. Gotta give the body some rest so I can be back to being myself sooner!

  6. Sorry you are not feeling good.. But, happy you were able to work from home. Praying that the tummy sickness is gone and your much better now.
    I got up feeling really tired today [couldn't sleep. up at 4am.] We have had a couple funerals to go to this week, and I think I was just mentally tired. So today's accomplishments were not very good. I cleaned the bathroom, and did a load of dish towels and hung to dry.. I need to plan supper.... I think I will just find left overs in the refrigerator... We will see??/ ha
    Hope tomorrow is better..

    1. Thank you, Judy, I am feeling much better, today. Must have been a 24 hour type of thing. At least, I am hoping it was!

      Sorry you couldn't sleep, Judy. I hope you'll continue to take it easy today and find something easy to fix for dinner. Hope you'll have a good night's sleep, tonight. Take care.
