Couch surfer

I'm feeling a bit under the weather today. I swear my gallbladder hates me. Even when all I have eaten is ice chips, my stomach seems to twist and turn. I was on call for work this evening, and thankfully I didn't have to go in. The pain continues to creep up. I spent the day in sweats and my pj top (bra-less of course). I played on the couch, watched a little Harry Potter, cried a bit when Snape came on the screen, and tried to nap. I say tried because several things kept jolting me awake. The first was Easter. She decided to nap with her momma and had a GOOD nap. She was snoring away. She was also quite gassy today. Stinky little girl. The other, now I can't say who it was, but I was awoken by someone saying my name into my ear. This has happened before, but usually happens when I'm in my bedroom. I had visited a psychic at one point and asked her who it was. She told me that it's my dad who wants me to know he is with me. Maybe it was him today saying he's here taking care of me. I'm not sure. It could be anyone. And no, I'm not going crazy, but thanks for thinking that. I felt isolated from the world today, and, being an introvert, was ok with that. I needed this time to re-charge my batteries. Focus on myself and only me. And cuddling with a doggy certainly makes it a bonus. I'm sure my nursing friends know all too well that in order to be able to care for our patients, we need to take care of ourselves too. And that's what I feel today was. A me day. Hopefully, this re-charge day will help my gallbladder and/or stomach calm down and get back on track.
