Well, my completely out of the blue, unexpected, totally awesome, surprise trip to New York City (Yes, NYC!!!!) ended before it began. In the early hours of the morning, as my traveling companions and I made our way to Bellows Falls, VT, where we would meet the bus that would take us to NYC, the mild queasiness that I had begun feeling the night before returned....and increased. By the time we reached Bellows Falls, my head was swimming and I was fighting nausea and stomach pains. I could not face a bus trip to NY. So, I phoned dear hubby and he rode in on his white steed (GMC) and rescued me. The stomach bug never did materialize, but I remained queasy and experienced such extreme fatigue that I slept the entire day. I could not get warm nor could I stay conscious for more than a few minutes. I finally forced myself out of bed at dinner time--grumpy as all get out--and managed to keep my eyes open for a while.
I feel better today--still a bit tired and quite grumpy--not to mention disappointed--I could be watching the Rockettes right now....ah well, c'est la vie. .
Things could very definitely be worse. We could be one of the 200,000+ people in New Hampshire (many who are our neighbors and friends) without power for the past 3 days, and looking at perhaps a week until it is back on. I will offer my "suffering" -such as it is- for them.
