Do Not, I repeat, DO NOT get the illness I've been experiencing for the last 10 days or so: uvulitis. It's an inflammation of the little thingy that hangs at the back of your throat. Who knows how it got kicked off: stress being a caregiver, dry, dry, dry air, two choral concerts. Couldn't swallow, much throat pain, and always that feeling that there's something at the back of your throat that needs to BE swallowed! So, you swallow, which hurts, and of course, that "thing" is still there. Plus lethargy, fatigue, and the dictum to "drink lots of liquids." Ha! Anyway, I think I've lost some weight because I couldn't really eat! Silver lining. But I haven't really gotten on the scale. I've turned a corner and think I can get back to normal, healthy eating starting tomorrow. Why tomorrow? Because the instruction is to have cold things and there's that little blob of chocolate ice cream hovering in the freezer.
