After several days of feeling only slightly better than death, today is refreshing. It started out rough this morning. It was just like yesterday morning. I woke gasping and choking and making horrible noises.
By mid-morning, I was able to eat solid food. That’s a switch. By early afternoon the feverish feeling appears to be gone.
I won’t be riding my bike to work this week. I haven’t actually been to work this week yet. I shouldn’t ride tomorrow, I still need to recover, and I can’t ride anyway, because I’m picking Kristy up from the airport. There is some better news! I won’t be riding on Thursday so that I can spend more time with Kristy.
I can’t ride on Friday, because I’m taking her back to the airport for another adventure. I thought she’d get to stay home for more than two days. Such is my crazy marriage.
On the other hand, I’ve got every weekend in July available for putting in some miles on the bike. I’m planning at least one more camping trip too.
Glad to hear you’re starting to improve, and that you’re trying to take it easy on yourself! I had a very nasty case of strep last year and wound up with pneumonia because I tried to get back into hard training too quick. I think the strep bacteria we’re seeing now are more virulent than they used to be.
I hope you feel better soon!
