on the mend . . .

so today . . . i am on the mend. i am thinking hopeful thoughts for my trip north. maybe christmas carols will play in my head after all . . .

the long and winding road

so today . . . i managed to eat some real food and keep it inside my body long enough to suck some nutrition out of it. i think. AND i did all that without the intervention of prescription drugs. so i am hoping this means that i have turned a corner and am on the road to recovery . . .

. . . unless the unpleasantness returns under cover of darkness.

stay tuned for the ongoing drama i now think of as "how sick will i be tomorrow?!?!" subtitled "julie sets a new personal record for days missed at work . . . "
