Daily Comment
I may have overextended myself a little last night. I'm not as sick as I was Wednesday, but I'm not as well as I was yesterday, either.

Getting old comes with a price - which we gladly pay, given the alternative. You do what you can to stay healthy, you try to keep your mind active and functional, but the physical and cognitive changes that come along with aging... come along with aging, like it or not.

The one I'm dealing with today is, of course, the longer/slower recovery time.

So it goes. It looks like my mad dash to the City tomorrow isn't going to happen after all.

I need to give myself a break.

This is what restaurant eating does, and why I don't eat at restaurants a lot. I regret nothing, but wish I'd been better prepared for the day.
