Rain and leaves blowin in the wind - lots to entertain me on this Sunday.
We also had a visit from Richard & Christiane (our friends from Ottawa). We have had many great camping trips with them and they are heading South in a few days so it was hard saying goodbye this time.
The steroids seem to be helping the throat and giving me more energy. The trick is to continue to rest and not use that extra energy. It's hard when all those leaves need to be raked and all the remaining Fall chores call to me. I keep telling myself that it's OK to ignore those calls!
It was tough walking through the grocery store today with Cheryl and seeing all those wonderful foods that I can't eat. Here is a picture of my dinner menu (also breakfast & lunch). The Resource is a complete diet (minus the pleasure) and is almost 500 calories in a small drink box. The glass with the spoon is my appetizer. It's just some Resource with my liquid and powdered medications added. That red fluid isn't wine, it's water with a thickening agent and some strawberry/banana flavour. I wonder if it's possible to find some wine or beer flavouring! I did find a rum flavouring but It didn't help much. So, all of you out there - enjoy your dry white toast! Does anyone know the "dry white toast" movie reference? Actually it's too easy; just Google it and enjoy!
