Well, the good news is that I’m not as weak as I used to be. But the cough is still here. I’m hoping today has started a trend that will continue (quickly) until I’m fully healed. Ideally by tomorrow. I never seem to get better from illnesses during the day — it seems that healing can only take place during the night, at least for me. At any rate, it’s nice having a little extra energy. Not much — I still have hardly any strength, as I found out today when I helped my uncle lift some benches out of our van — but definitely more than before. It’s a start. The nights are much better now that I’ve remembered to rub VapoRub (some cough suppression medicine) on my chest before going to bed. The two nights that I forgot to do it were the awful ones.

Oh, it’s looking like my chance at a job at MyFamily might not be completely gone after all. I’m still not quite sure what’s happening, but things look good. I’ve just got to get better so I can go in and talk with them…
