Now I know what it’s like to be a dog….I have been sleeping about twenty hours per day for the last couple of days.  Today I am much better, not napping as much and I actually ate!

So here’s what I’ve learned:

• You don’t want to get salmonella if you can help it.
• You can survive on four crackers and a couple of spoonfuls of yogurt for several days.
• You can really stretch yourself when you have to speak Spanish.  (Oh yeah…the doctor said he would give me medication to help me sleep tonight came out just fine when I needed it to)
• If you have long hair, be sure to put it in braids or pigtails or it ends up a snarled mess from being in bed so much.
• It really helps to have a partner who is solicitous and patient.

I am actually feeling well enough today to do a little knitting, so I’m off now to knit and nap on the couch for a while.  See you later!
