What a week! What a two Weeks!
I volunteer in a couple of non-profits here in our little town. Everyone does really - the whole place runs on volunteer hours. So I sit on the board of one of these orgs' (really not a huge deal. Show up, care, do stuff & they elect you. BAM) This org is one I really like and do more work for than the others so this is my second year on the board and I am the chair of the board. I like that this has been a great year for getting things done and we've got just the greatest volunteers. The town council is great, the town's really coming together. Except those people. You know them.. the few who are just against every dang thing. We've lived a few places and I know that they're everywhere but this is a particularly mean bunch. They must have been the bullies of their schools. They made week 1 so stressful I couldve torn my hair out. I wont say more, as it's over and they're just not that important to me.
week 2 shouldve been super cool.. a convention in New Orleans! And a friend + both our DH's attending! AND a bestie and her hubby? From there & coming to join the fun.. Well, I had a delightful time with our friends and I did manage to learn something & meet a few people but the night before leaving I became so ill I could barely leave the house. I would say it was food poisoning but my DH ate the EXACT same food and he was fine.. No further details on the symptoms, you can guess surely. Have you been to NOLA? fantastic food and super rich. I was so ill a couple of days I couldnt leave our room. I didnt sleep one night through and lost my appetite for ANY food. water and air, that's for me.
I'm home now and rested up but the tummy still doesnt like food so much. I'm guessing it was a virus. Glad to be home and after a weekend of seeing what my body will accept I deem myself better. To the grocery store and back to real life.
