 Thursday - morning

I slept the best sleep last night that I have had in quite a while. 9 solid hours. I was soooo tired when I went to bed last night I was really hoping to get some good z's in.  This is what helps you get over sickness more than anything, good quality sleep. 

It was 8 am before I finally said enough, it's time to get out of bed, but perhaps I should have slept  longer? It's an hour and a half later and I still feel like I could go right back to sleep and stay that way a couple more hours.  I might just do that.  I'd rather get better than "go do things".

The kids last day of school is today and they are getting early release. Mom says they should be getting home by around 12:45.  About 3 hours earlier than normal. I'm really not ready to have kids around like that, it can get old quickly. They still aren't allowed to play their games and even if they were allowed, dad has them with him in his truck.  He's not supposed to be home until some time late next month. 

However, the kids will be going to church camp and after that, grandma is coming for them to stay with her and grandpa for a week. The fact of that matter is is that they would be going to grandma's sooner but the youngest has a doctor's appointment that can't be missed. Won't go into those details, but he's having problems and not of the illness/sickness variety.

That tractor is sitting there waiting for me to come get it. I simply haven't had the energy for it and before I got sick, I didn't have time. I would have to go get the trailer then drag extremely heavy ramps out of the back yard and hope they actually work for the trailer I have and then go to the outlet, do whatever they want me to do there, load it up, chain it down, take it back to the park and offload it.  

It isn't that much work, or is it?  I really don't know how I feel until I try to start moving  - but - I didn't wake up coughing and this yucky feeling in my lungs so there is definitive improvement    

Anyway, the vacation in July is paid for, basically. I paid my room plus a room in New Orleans when we're heading there - no clue, the ladies want to see stuff there before we get to Gulf Shores - and just gas and food money. 

Well, I'd write more but I have decided to get out into the real world for a bit and see how I feel.  It's Saturday I'm slated to go back to work, so I have all of today and tomorrow to get to feeling well enough for that level of activity.
