Feeling stronger today

It is coming up on three o'clock and so far today I have not fallen into a weak spell. Until today I would be able to be active for a while and then with no warning I would suddenly turn into a wet noodle and have to spend a lot of time lying down.
I had a good sleep last night and am just now beginning to feel a bit tired. After I finish this blog I will lay down and read for a bit.
Had some Ezekial raisin bread with peanut butter and a bowl of apricots and ginger tea for breakfast.
Christy was out early for tennis and I had Izzy for company. Bandit prefers staying in the guest room.
I took a shower/shampoo and then had lunch (some protein fortified pasta with tomatoe sauce and a little parmesan cheese (unhappily no taste so just ate it for nourishment). After lunch I paid all of my current bills and prepared my monthly deposit.
Wrote a short grocery list and Christy is off to mail my mail and go to Safeway to do some grocery shopping for both of us and pick up a prescription for me.
Christy will be having lunch with Ileen and Mary K tomorrow. She invited me to join them but I can't count on having the strength to go out yet. I do hope to feel up to a movie by Saturday.
I went outside this morning just to get some air. Very muggy and too warm so after I visited all of the gardens I came back inside to refreshing cool. Deliver me from next month's utility bills! Still have not seen $400. on the electric yet but that has happened in the past. I keep the thermostat at 79 -80 and have been comfortable.
Christy showed me the photos they took at Laguna. Some of the shots I had not seen. Such a beautiful house and from what everyone said also very comfortable.
Reading all I can today about the debt crisis. Hard to know what to conclude. Paul Krugman of the NYTimes calls the deal a catastrophe and cites lack of leadership on Obama's part. I have also read that we don't need a AAA credit rating to be able to pay our bills. The media is not very reliable. So today I don't know if it is vital to pass the deal or not. The votes are not in. Move-on which I find too biased and aggressive for my taste urges me to write to Ed Pastor and ask him to vote no on the deal. Then where would we be if it does not pass?
Watched some Deadliest Catch with Christy last night. Did not seem to be her thing.
I have Master Chef to watch this evening and have enjoyed the show a lot. Beginning to feel a bit of cabin fever today. Hopefully I will continue to get stronger and will be able to be out and about more.
Busy day here tomorrow what with Christy and the dogs, Phil in the morning and Marth working here in the afternoon.
