Early to bed...

Will someone please tell the jackhammer that periodically starts thumping around inside my head to take a vacation? A permanent one, please. Ugghh. I don't really have a cold and I don't really have a sinus infection. But I definitely have sinus pressure that is making my head hurt and making it hard to stay awake at my desk... and on the drive home. Nothing like a nap at a red light!

Just kidding... mostly.

I got home from work and took some sinus meds and those seem to be a significant help. Hopefully taking some tomorrow morning will help make the work day better. I'm sure they will.

As I was not feeling tip top, I have kept it a light afternoon/evening in the cleaning department. In case anyone is possibly keeping track, the zone for this week is the master bedroom & bathroom. I am fortunate to have very little to do in there, so for the few nights I'm home this week... well, that would be tonight only because tomorrow there is a basketball game and Wednesday we'll be on our way to Vermont. So tonight I am doing laundry in preparation for packing and doing some general tidying up so that the place doesn't bombard us with mess when we get back on Sunday from the Thanksgiving holiday.

And I also made an apple pie (see below post). I was going to make pumpkin too, but I didn't have any evaporated milk and I'm too lazy to go through the process for a substitute. Hubs and I wont be able to eat a whole pie before we leave, but I'll just bring it to work and some officer or another will finish it off in no time. But only if I put a note saying I made it. If there's no note, they rarely touch it... because when there is no note they assume it was originally intended for the homeless shelter and that it went to the homeless shelter, but was turned away and sent to the department. I guess the homeless shelter wont take things that aren't sealed, or something like that, so stuff that people want to give to the homeless end up in our break room. I kid you not. Although I admit my conclusions are based on hearsay.

Anyways, I'm going to bed early tonight... probably before eight. I'll stay up a bit later than that to read, but I'm thinking a good nights sleep (also known as an actual eight hours or more) will do me good. I'd like to avoid further anxiety attacks (I had a small one when I got home from work-I'm sure it's partly due to my excitement about going home) and also avoid getting more sick than just a sinus headache.

So with a cup of tea, I'm off to my comfy bed for a bit of reading and hopefully a restful nights sleep. Happy Monday!
