jdmkleini can't shake this sickness. Last night before i showered i took my temp. Nothing to worry about, but above normal. i'm glad of that in one respect, i was afraid i was beginning to have hot flashes. i've been so couch potato this summer i just feel blah. In my mind, i seem to remember reading someplace that exercise helps with dealing with post menopausal symptoms. i haven't been exercising, the most i've done all summer is walk upstairs or down to the basement. Saturday, after i get back, swimming is going to start again. Big time. This morning i had no voice, and was sick to my stomach. Took a nap and was ok until about 8 p.m. My nose began to fill up, my voice began to go and the fever returned as well as the nausea.
i will survive.
Son and family came and brought dinner. He is a good cook. i wonder what bushel he was hiding his culinary light under when we were in Taiwan. He made his famous beef enchiladas, spanish rice, refried beans, and corn. i made a fruit salad. A good meal. And they cleaned up completely. Tomorrow i just have to empty the dishwasher. Can't beat that with a stick.
The show the kids put on was a whole lot of nothing, but they had a good time. We were on the deck so they didn't knock anything over in the house, but we couldn't stay out there very long because of the mosquitoes. They had fun, and so did we.
i now have all my Christmas shopping done with the exception of Mother's. But Sister and i are going together for that. She will buy it and i'll give her some money. Tomorrow i'm going to mark what is whose and put it away. i've told Mother where i'm putting them, and i've told Sister in case Mother forgets. This feels really good. i mean really really good.
Mother liked one of the pairs of shoes i bought so we called Dillard's to see if they had them in her size. They did, so we went out and bought them. On the way to the mall, we were listening to an NPR program. The guest was a woman who is transgendered, i think that's the term. She felt like a man in a woman's body. During the process of becoming a man, she started taking testosterone. The changes to her body and mind were amazing and almost instantaneous. There is a test to see how much testoterone a person has in his/her body. The program team who produced the show decided to take the test. There were some who were a bit nervous about finding out about themselves in this manner. They were all right in their choice of which of the women had the most T in their bodies, but were absolutely surprised at which of the men had the most. That got me to thinking. The group discussed the character traits that are associated with high T and it made me wonder if people who are dominant in what is called bdsm have more T in their bodies.
i just read jade's journal entry. She commented on the responses to a question she raised. i wonder if mine will go the way of hers. No matter, i'm just curious. When i get back to Kuwait, and am back in the swing of things, and have better thought out how i want to ask the question, i'll post it
