Back in the Land of the Living
Well. I've had a week.
Yesterday was the first day In felt close to human. Today, I actually got dressed in leaving-the-house clothes, put on some make-up, and .. well, left the house. My first trip was to the drive-up window at the bank, the drive-up mailboxes at the post office, and Dunkin Donuts. (Priorities, people!) I came home and took a bit of a nap, and woke up craving chicken. (Yesterday was the first day I started eating real food again.) Anyway, I had to get something at Walgreen's, which is a convenient almost-next-door to KFC, so I had delicious food for lunch. (I skipped most of the fried skin part.) And this afternoon, I got my claws nails done.
I still have whatever it is I've got, but it's much less debilitating. My tongue is still blistered, but most of them are healed. My stomach is still iffy. My legs and left arm still hurt horribly, but mostly in the morning, and then it's bearable for the rest of the day.
Tomorrow: not just wash my hair (it's clean now) but style it too, so I don't look like the cat lady on The Simpsons. Go to the cleaners, and maybe recycling. Be dressed. Eat food.
Thank you for your well wishes and good thoughts. As you can see, they helped.
I am seemingly back in the land of the living. I like it here.
