I woke up this morning feeling like I had a hangover- and I have not had anything alcoholic to drink in weeks. I had a headache and ached, not like flu symptoms, but like bone-dead tired. After being up for a while, I took an afternoon nap, and when the phone woke me up three hours later, I felt better. My sleep was deep enough that I dreamt. I guess I needed that sleep. I spent way too many hours of the last few days finishing up newsletters, on some days as many as sixteen hours and well into the night. I was never this tired before just from working on newsletters.

I am preparing dinner as I write this: beef flavored Rice-a-Roni, brussel sprouts and small beef stakes with onions. I love Rice-a-Roni though I will admit beef is not my favorite, but since I am having steaks, it works. I think I mentioned that I am not a beef eater. I prefer pork, chicken and fish, though once in a while, beef is good. I suppose what is really good is that this will be enough for several meals and a snack or two.
