Back in Heerlen, Day of Recuperation
Day of Recuperation
Emiliana Torrini would sing “Today’s been OK”.. Well my dear I could not disagree more. A horrid day has it been. Have spent the whole day in-and-out of bed, taking various forms of medication, and trying to keep my eyes open. My friend from the US, recommends visiting a doctor, and I couldn’t agree more, however, it is just too cold outside, and needless to say, the minute i step out in the cold, the whole problem starts all over again (shortness of breath, uncontrollable bouts of coughing etc), so I shall ride it out and see what happens.
Have been eating a lot of fruit and drinking plenty of fluids. An indicator of my unhealthy diet – for the first time in nearly 7 months in the Netherlands, I bought some fruits at the Albert Heijn, instead of my usual bag of chips and bottles of pop. Ach, as good ol Scrooge put it, and I rephrase “I shall always know Healthy in my heart”.
Time for dinner and turning in, soon after. Cheers!
