Stomach flu – Day Two.

How can I write an essay when I feel so blah?

I guess I can try to count my blessings.

I don’t have stomach cramps.

I can muster a smile today.

Yesterday I could not.

I discovered that when I sleep on my side, I don’t hear the terribly loud noises coming from my colon, and I can get a little more sleep.

I ate s applesauce this morning with a bit more excitement than yesterday.

I believe I am running to the bathroom slightly less than I did yesterday.

Last but not least, I am writing this essay.

Let’s meet again in healthier times.
