A day of recovery

I'm enjoying a quiet morning, waiting for the Advil to eliminate the pain of the neckache I developed in my sleep. It's diminished a little, but boy does it ever hurt when I sneeze!

At around 11 I'm supposed to meet up with Brooke and Mari (and others?) at the Olive Garden, which will be nice. I hardly ever go there, since Sean isn't big into Italian, but I really like it. Should be fun.

One thing I am really happy about right now is that Mom is coming to visit me. She has been so wonderful online and on the phone, but I really want to see her in person, and I can't take any time off since I've already put my vacation days on the week of Christmas. So she's going to come here, which is great because she hasn't seen this apartment in person. She really hasn't seen a whole lot of Augusta. Hopefully I will feel well enough to show her around all my favorite places.

Yesterday I could have spent a fair amount of time with Brooke, but my sleep schedule was messed up and I was depressed and I didn't want to go anywhere, so I just stayed home and read/watched Detective Conan. I think I needed a day to just do nothing. I feel better today.

Brooke wants me to go to Columbia with her this afternoon to visit her brother's family, which I may just do. Apparently there will be barbecue, yum.

Yum, Olive Garden plus barbecue. Sounds like a good day to throw caution to the winds! Hope your neck feels better quickly.

Thanks! Olive Garden may fall through (hope not, but just got a call that Brooke had breakfast at 10...;P) but I'm definitely going for that BBQ.

I guess I must have slept funny on my neck...it's just the right side. I'm stretching it out as best I can. It seems to be getting better :)

SORRY about the change in plans, today; I absolutely HATE when I say something, but things change. I LIKE to be a woman of my word! Alas, time constraints and so many different peoples' schedules played a part in having to shift things around, and I apologize to everyone.

NOW, as for the barbeque, it's going to be EXCELLENT, as BOTH of my brothers inherited the "grill/barbecue gene" and were born with grill tools in their hands. ;)

Wow, I feel sorry for The Mother, then...
