Another day

Sunrise today

It's midweek and I've felt so exhausted this morning I could not go to work. In fact I woke up late ... because I woke up at midnight with a coughing spasm. It was cold and the heater was on so the air was dry and made my throat itchy. Didn't sleep till 4am when the coughing stopped ... I actually have to drink a cup of warm water to calm the throat. The rest of the morning was spent with a little gardening and clearing up some backlog work in my home office before resting for another couple of hours. Then it was class in the afternoon and helping Sr. Clara in the kitchen. The other 2 sisters were out on excursion so Clara had to work in the kitchen and sacristy at the same time. Well we managed to get dinner prepared.

The weather continues to stay cool and cloudy ... which is very pleasant because this Sunday is the jewish feast of Hanukkah and there'll be lots of activities. If I have enough energy I'll see if I'll go out and see what's happening. But today I'm staying in and sleeping early.
