So far this cold is

working itself out of my system, very slowly. The odd part about this cold being is I got it the day after Pledges died. Monday was the worst as I could barely talk. Overnight last night I would lay down in bed and had coughing attacks. I would sit down on the couch beside Pledge's pillow prop my feet up on the glass coffee table. Having the weather channel or an old movie on I'd pass out no problem. No coughing attacks. That's how I got most of my sleep overnight. Around 11:30am this morning I thought, Anne has to be up anyway, lets try and get some sleep in bed. I set the alarm for 1pm and slept until it went off and got up at 1:30pm feeling a little better. No coughing attacks.

Saturday I'll be at work from 10-2pm. Before I leave today I'm calling Audrey's to see if they have anything for me to pick up. I'm going to try for some extra hours Saturday but I plan on doing my banking after work so I'll have a bit of cash with me to get a book, that's if anything is there. Otherwise Saturday will be a long day for me if my voice holds out, I'll work.

I'm closing in on the last 50 pages or so of "The Space Wolf" It's a big book. Most Omnibus books are. I should have it read Sunday. That way I can finally  go onto something else.

I also took on the EA charge for the 19th of November and that's a ton of memory work. I'm surprised at how good my memory work is. Why is it good for memorizing long passages and having to repeat (public speaking) in front of the size of a classroom when before taking upgrading around 1995 I could barely pass basic math? I think it's because this is something I like to do. Math was more of a chore. The other thing is when I did upgrading too keep my UIC claim going I was under pressure and this was during the day. I did better when I took that basic math course because it was at night and the atmosphere was more relaxed. I'm considering taking another math course in the evening. I could work mornings and then go home have a nap and then go to night school. It's just something I'd like to do next year but we'll see. 

After my banking I'm going straight home catch the results of the Argo's/Eskimo's game and hopefully go to bed. I'm beat.

Anyway gang, that's about all for now.
