The last 2 days haven't been great. Well, I was sick starting about 7 or 8 days ago. I started with chills, very low fever, coughing, etc. I called to cancel my PT appointment without 24 hours notice. They told me that was fine the first time otherwise they have to charge me. So I had an appointment today. They sent me an email to remind me. I planned my whole morning knowing I had a 1pm appointment. Went to the pharmacy, and the grocery store, stopped to pick up a form AARP needs me to fill out for my tax appointment. I left a message for the window washer to set up an appointment, left a message for the owner of my lawn care service asking him to call me after 2 or tomorrow. Went to check my calendar to see if PT was at 1 or 1:15. It was 11!! I had missed it! I called them and the office manager said she tried to call me this morning. She called my cell phone, I told her that is only for texts, you have to call me on my land line, but I got the email on the weekend. She said "I called to tell you Molly is sick so we are cancelling all her appointments". Long story to say I don't have to pay for missing an appointment! And I'm sorry Molly is sick but if she has what I have to expect 2 weeks before she is better. Now it's after 3 and I'm still waiting for the calls from the window washer and the lawn care service. I have a huge yard. Over 1/3 acre and it's all weeds. This time of year after lots of rain it's time to start weed whacking. 2 guys come every 2 weeks for an hour and they can't take care of my whole yard in that time. There is an area fenced in off the deck for Bobby to " go potty". Otherwise the HOA doesn't allow fences. The weeds are so high, right now it's miner's lettuce growing. I can't find what I need to in order to pick up after Bobby. It's like an Easter egg hunt. Anyway, I figured the guys did weed whacking back there on Friday. They didn't, they were back there with a lawn mower that didn't touch the weeds in Bobby's area. I was so frustrated yezterday when I saw that. So I got out my weed whacker even though I had sworn this year I wasn't going to spend hours weed whacking. Well, I got my gardening gloves, a mask and goggles. Went out back, plugged in the darn thing after untangling the electric cord. Then I checked to made sure there was enough string and there was. Put the orange cap back on the spool and turned on the whacker. Immediately the orange cap flew off and across the deck and the spool broke with line all tangled. It was broken so I couldn't do anything! So 2 more weeks of Easter egg hunting. It took me awhile to calm down but then I knew the PT Molly would not want me doing that anyway. Trying to stay calm and I'll feel better once the lawn care owner calls me and tells me when he can come over so I can show him what needs to be done before the house goes on the market and to remind the guys (there are always new guys) that I don't want weeds mowed with a lawn mower, they grow back quickly and always weed whack Bobby's area until summer when there is nothing but dust. Sorry for rambling! This is when I stress eat. I bought a loaf French bread at the grocery store but resisted ice cream and chips. Oh, and I cancelled the rest of my physical therapy appointments until I get back from Oregon next month. I have too much going on to risk missing appointments

I've decided to put my house up for sale the day I leave for Oregon. I'll be gone for most of 6 days. The cats will be here, I'll keep them in the master bedroom. Someone will come in at 6:30 or so am and pm to feed them, scoop the litter box and give the insulin shot. So real estate agents can look at the house. The cats will hide whenever anyone comes inside. So now i have so much to do to get the house ready to sell. Things are scheduled now but need to schedule the window washer after the porch is painted. Also need to have the carpet in 3 bedrooms cleaned. And I'll need to find a place to hide all the pet stuff, dog beds, cat furniture, pet carriers, etc. If I price the house right maybe I'll get an offer while I'm gone! Crossing my fingers. My realtor told me she had buyers in my neighborhood who put an all cash, full price offer on a house the day it was listed. There were 7 offers and her buyers didn't get the house! All cash! Of course my house isn't on the lake like that house and there usually aren't bidding wars for the homes in the woods!
I've been doing too much. Have been going up and down the garage stairs, at least 15 times so far today. My physical therapist agreed with me when i said I rest my knee most of the time but spend about 15-20 minutes each hour up and doing things around the house. I don't think I've rested for 20 minutes total today. Keep thinking of something I want to put in the car for the thrift store or something else I can throw away. Asked my brother in law if he wanted a bag and a half of charcoal so he came over and got that. It's funny, I spend most of the time doing very little but I seem to feel better when I've got a project to work on. Now I need to ice my knee and try not to use the stairs until tomorrow.
Eating is not good again. Bought a container of fruit slices candy for the first time in my life! Nothing else bad in the house. Making a chuck roast later today or tomorrow. Will cook it in the crock pot over night probably.

Bad news on the new house. Yesterday I talked to the real estate agent/sales agent. My house is one of 4 or 5 waiting to be built is Phase 2. The project manager or developer for the first phase has left and they are struggling to get anything done. My agent is now working on a new project but still working on the homes that have been reserved. He suggested that I look for something else. I may have to make a trip to Oregon soon to look at homes.
So a little stressed about that but I'm still not feeling well so not spending too much time today worrying about the house. Last night I worried alot!
Didn't eat too much yesterday. Made hot chocolate this morning and will make a piece of toast later. I've logged in tomato soup but I'm not sure what I'll eat later in the day.

Still feeling lousy this morning and now feel nauseated and not interested in eating. But no fever, although I keep getting chills so I turned the heater up. Stuffiness, although I can breathe through the nose! All the congestion is higher up the nose and between my eyes. Still have a headache and am so tired. Cough once in awhile and then it's hard to stop. Might be the flu although I had the flu shot in September and also the Covid vaccine. Cancelled today's PT and the realtor who is #3 to give me an idea of the listing price, called me and we will reschedule tomorrow's appointment. Think about rescheduling the orthopedist (2nd opinion) appointment on Friday but it will be another 2 weeks or so before I can get another appointment.
Trying to drink water to stay hydrated but it's not easy. Doubt I'll eat much if any thing today. I haven't been sick since before Covid!

It's almost 6pm and my eating has been fine today. Just 1 slice of rye toast and that was around 3pm. I'm done with eating for the day and am living on cough drops. Feeling lousy. Throat has felt funny for a couple of days and I keep getting a dry cough. Thought it was allergies and Zrtec helped with stuffiness until today. So cough, scratchy throat, stuffy nose and now chills! No fever so far.
Would love it if I had an excuse not to go to PT tomorrow. Planning the same food tomorrow as today, maybe I'll substitute something for tomato soup.
