As I was sitting at the front desk, I started feeling really flushed and nauseous… needing to head to the loo, I asked my manager to take over!
She called in the owner, who also happens to be the campground nurse.
She asked me if I was pregnant! Being a woman of a certain age, that is no longer an issue! She chuckled with me and simply said, “That’s what the hospital would ask if you were to go to the emergency room!”
After checking my vitals, she told me that everything seemed normal.. however my blood pressure was elevated…
After a few more questions, it was decided that I was either coming down with a bug of some sorts, or I was simply a bit dehydrated due to not drinking enough water…
It has been unbearably hot and muggy here… and I really haven’t been drinking enough water lately!
I was sent home and told to drink plenty of fluids and get some rest!
Rest… what is that?!?
My schedule is all over the place, and because of it, my days off are usually spent running around doing all the errands I don’t get to during the week!
Even now, as I sit here writing, I see the pile of dishes needing to be done… the laundry that needs to be washed… the trash that needs to be taken to the dumpster… and in the background, I hear one of the cats scratching in the litter box, reminding me that it needs to be emptied!
When do I get to rest?!?
But rest I must! So in spite of everything that needs to be done, I am at least taking the morning off, getting back under the covers to watch some telly… and drink some much needed water!
Until next time,
Peace, love and safe travels,
