Another morning when I woke up with a congested nose and throat, even though I had over eight hours sleep, I spent enough time waking up off and on all night that I did not get a lot of sleep at one time. When I finally decided to give up trying to get any more sleep it was really overcast out.
I coughed and sneezed my way through the morning and finally around 1030 I decided to go for a walk to see if some exercise and fresh air might help. I felt really good while I was walking and for a while afterwards pretty soon I started sneezing and coughing again.
This afternoon I decided that I would try to work on the kitchen faucet so I started to take the old one apart to see if I could find a replacement cartridge for it. It was next to impossible to get it a part so finally I finally decided that since I already had a replacement faucet I would just go ahead and replace the whole thing.
Well, crawling under the sink was not meant for me in my condition, it was bad enough when I was feeling well, but today it was unbearable. Luckily Stan stopped by to see what we needed to do to finish the upstairs hallway and so when he had finished checking it out I asked him to help.
It is a good thing that he is quite a lot smaller than I am and even he had a hard time down there. After a while he was able to get everything out and even put the new one in for us. The new faucet is much different than the old one, especially since it does not drip continually.
Toni and Chucky came over tonight and picked up a some hamburgers for us from Cruisers; I got a mushroom burger with mushrooms and fried onions on top. I also had a cherry shake to wash everything down.
Well to day was one of my more unproductive days that I have had in a long time, I am going to go to bed early tonight to see if I can make up for waking up so much during the night. Tomorrow Stan is coming over around 0830 so I need to make sure that I am somewhat awake and alert by then. I am always up but sometimes not that alert so maybe some extra sleep will help.
