I'm ready to get well!

I feel a little better but still have a ways to go.  My lungs don't hurt so bad when I cough, which is still too frequently to suit me, and I take periodic naps and rest periods throughout the day.  I'm determined to get out and to the store tomorrow - I'm nearly out of fresh foods, and also want to go to Costco this weekend.   I must be on the verge of getting much better because the grocery lists I'm making indicate I'm going to start cooking again!

I was really getting worried a few days ago because I could barely walk without stumbling, and I couldn't express a coherent thought!  I've realized it was the OTC meds, particularly Benadryl!   

I think we are looking at the next two weeks being very rainy ones for Sacramento.  I don't mind it at all as it keeps the temperatures down.  I wouldn't care if it stayed in the 60's for the rest if the year, although I know that's too much to hope for. 

I'm still loving the joy I get when I can gather all my kids & grandkids together.   The memories are still sharp in my mind even now, and I know they will linger for a long time.  I'm just sorry my oldest granddaughter (Ara) is on the other side of the country.  When I take the train to NY this summer to visit Mike & family I am determined to get to see Ara.  It would be nice if I could just go into NYC (Grand Central Station) and get the train to Philadelphia, but I could never deal with getting around NYC again.  As it is, the City will remain in my memories as one of, if not my most  favorite cities in the world, and I will figure out some way to make the trip. 

I hope I can get a good night's sleep and be ready for a full day tomorrow.   Just reading over my grocery list is making me hungry and anxious to start cooking again.  I know I'm going to be ok!
