Sunday, March 16

Feeling a little better today. I slept last night, making all the difference, and just rested a lot throughout the day. I read, watched Lost with the kids, went on a walk with Andrew and Farrah, and watched The White Lotus with Andrew tonight. In the afternoon, I even took the kids into Shadyside to shop at Francesca's--Lucia wanted a new dress to wear in NYC. She found a cute dress, Greta found a sweater, and both got some jewelry with a buy-one-get-two-free sale.

I tried to get the kids to watch more Lost tonight, but they wanted to READ. Lucia is finishing up Iron Flame, a smutty dragon romantasy (I don't know what any of that really means and I'm going to maintain my igorance as long as possible), and Greta is reading something else. (It's hard for me to keep track of Greta's reading, because she reads so much and also flips back and forth between old favorites, rereading.)

I ate well today; appetite remains unaffected, though it was still hard to drink liquids today because the terrible taste in my mouth remains. Hot tea is the only thing I can tolerate. By evening, my legs were sore, but I took two Advil and am calling it a day. Hopefully tomorrow will begin the upswing.
