And Today?

Today was actually kinda nice -- not quite as hot but still on the humid side.

In even better news, I think my cough may be letting up, which means I can start back at the Y again! I am definitely looking forward to it. I've felt better for a couple of days now but my coughs like to hang on tight. :/

I also had a few errands to run, so I donated a big sack of food to the Salvation Army. Most of it was tomato stuff, cake mixes, etc. Next week I will probably take in another sack as well because do I have a lot of spaghetti sauce, etc.

My only problem is what to do with ketchup and mustard and other assorted condiments I already have open in the fridge and can't use now. They're new enough that I don't want to throw them out but I don't know anyone that well to give it too. So I suppose it will remain, on the odd chance I ever have company again.

And now, back to writing.

Ah yes, the lingering cough. For the last 10 yrs, any time I get a cold it settles in to a sinus infection and I need antibiotics to get rid of it.

As for the acid reflux. I had a friend with the problem and she didn't change what she ate, she just took daily over-the-counter antacids and didn't eat or drink anything after 5p. Made a huge difference and she lost weight too. :)

I hate a lingering cough. And I am on my second batch of antibiotics too. :/

My mom had a lot of throat problems with acid reflux so my dr. is being extra cautious. I don't like to be taking as many meds as I am; I think it's just at the limit. I wish I could do the "nothing after 5-6 pm" but but I have a new med that needs to be taken 4x/day. Though I do limit it to crackers and water, still...
