2. Good morning! 🌞

Oct 2024

I had two small baked sweet potatoes with salt, and butter. I had water to drink.

Sipping on ice water has helped me manage the pain. But eating isn't much fun. It's a good thing that I enjoy cooking.

I have also been fixing meals for my dog-baby. She's been a full time job in her old age but also a distraction. Keeping my mind off my troubles. I love her so much. Every day's a blessing no matter how often she howls.

My mouth pain is doing me in. I'm having pain all the way down my throat through to my ear but only on one side. It's disrupting my ability to sleep and focus.

I'm wondering if it is shingles. Any thoughts?

I've added extra strength acetaminophen to my treatment approach and getting some relief. I'm going to the doctor on Tuesday.

Have a lovely day, everyone!
