Mind you, I do concede being foolish staying up until 3:15 (sigh) to finish the latest vigilante book. And, then, the trouble began. I just couldn't get my pulse to settle down, though I believe it was in synch with those blasted spasms. No amount of massage or gentle laying on of hands would do the trick. So I got out of bed 90 minutes later and returned to reading. Only then was I able to get some sleep.
I had to wake up at 8:45, to eat brekkie and place my meal order before the book club meeting began. Oh, I was so bouncy at 10:00 to hear so many people on the Zoom call, including the Senior Librarian of our branch, joining us for the first time. I hadn't had a chance to read the book, but listened in rapt wonder as everybody(!!!) praised the book and its relevance to us as we are confined to our residences. I can't wait until I can finally read it. We were so happy to be together, we even inserted a meeting in July to cover the meeting we'd missed a couple months ago, at the beginning of the lockdown.
S. did me a favour as she went shopping to the drugstore, picking up two bottles of Robax. Unfortunately, there'd been some price gouging since her last time, with each bottle being five to eight bucks more a pop! Just disgusting. But, OTOH, my muscles relaxed immediately. I'm still cutting back but I'm not going to deprive myself unreasonably.
After the meeting, I really needed to lie down. I dozed off for a wee bit, tn watched my regular programs. And now it's time for pills and bed. Or … dare I continue reading the next book in the series? After all, my schedule is free tomorrow. Whee!
