A New Week Starts

I slept much better last night probably because I was exhausted from the previous two nights, but I'll take it. Weight still hanging in there at 172.2 so the calorie packing is working. Nurse R discussed my days meals. Nothing like a meal discussion at 7:45 AM. She just said the reason I slept better was because I was out and about yesterday and I took a walk. Could be.

Today is dank and rainy so I will keep pretty much to home. I still have heavy mucous and my tongue still hurts but maybe it is a little better. Its hard to tell. Lunch, another high point of the day consisted of clam chowder and an Ensure. Dr. Beadle called to see how I was doing and she said I'm pretty much on schedule. She said in another two months I will be feeling like my old self. I hope she's right. I mentioned my sore tongue and she sent out a prescription of some numbing medicine which should help. They have medicine for everything and our cabinet is a regular pharmacopia of mystical drugs.

Dinner. Nurse R called to see what I was having. She already knew as we discussed it ad nauseum but she wanted to hear it one more time. I had a bowl of chicken soup, enchilladas, corn pudding and chicken. Monster portions which were not photographed. Now I'm stuffed.
