getting ready for tomorrow

You know, I copied down my schedule for the week, but I can't figure out where I put the thing. All I can remember is that I work tomorrow & ldyicefire and I have a day off at the same time.

Since I work tomorrow, I'm fixing my lunch right now: brown basmati rice & kashmir spinach. I have a few of those ready-to-eat, shelf-stable Indian entrees, so as soon as the rice is finished, I'm putting some in a Ziploc bowl, opening the pouch of kashmir spinach, putting some on the rice, popping a lid on it & sticking it in the fridge.

Come to think of it, I'll probably have enough for 2 meals worth... that's 2 lunches packed.

I'm still sick... had to work at the register all day with barely a voice. I brought home some green tea/echinacea lozenges (RI-COLA!!), some l-lysine tablets & some soy yogurts, in hopes that the herbs & the friendly bacteria will help me fight this off. L-lysine is suppose to help the body fight viruses, so I figured it couldn't hurt to grab some.

plans have changed

I'm not going to work this morning.
Instead, I get to go to the doctor's office since I still have no voice. Even whispering makes my throat tired.
I also coughed like a barking seal for a good portion of the night.

Anyone who knows me well will understand just how sick I am since I'm voluntarily going to the doctor!

Laryngitis

From https://www.yourhealth.com/bin/build_result_doc.pl?SEARCHTERM=Laryngitis++&page=/CRS/AHA/crs/chronlar.htm:

( What is laryngitis? )

( How does it occur? )

( What are the symptoms? )

( How is it diagnosed? )

( How is it treated? )

( How long will the effects last? )

( How can I take care of myself? )

So what does all this mean? I have acute laryngitis & am not supposed to go back to work until Thursday. I'm also supposed to avoid talking whenever possible (hence the not being allowed to go to work).

Here's to another tiny paycheck. :/
