The restful weekend

I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday weekend, however you spent it. As I promised myself, I have spent it on my butt and today has been the busiest day of the four-day weekend. We had a good dinner on Thursday, although the metallic taste persists, and we decided on Friday evening that we would try a bland diet for me to see if that might speed the return to "normal." I'm trying my first day without Zantac, but since my stomach is now actually paining me a bit, I might have to take one. I've been sleeping between 10 and 11 hours a night, and I've watched a lot of television. I managed to get my Christmas cards done, and I finally washed and dried the wig. That was an adventure.

For the rest of today, I plan to pick out which cookies I'm going to bake this year, put away the few autumnal decorations I have out, and put the last of my warm weather clothes away. That should pretty much wear me out.

Thanks to Lydia G., who kept me company yesterday. I haven't even felt like talking on the telephone lately, so having a visit was a real treat. She brought goodies and things to do. You're a sweetheart, and I love ya!

It's back to the city tomorrow, so I don't want to overdo it today. Safe travels to anyone heading home after the long weekend, and drive carefully if you're out doing some holiday shopping.

Since I promised to post photos of the hair, here they are. You've already seen the "before" hair from our vacation photos, so no need to post another one here. Keep in mind that I had already had the wig on after my haircut, although even fresh from being washed and dried, it doesn't really look much different. :)
