So today was a bad day. I woke up and had three muffins and a glass of milk and then five minutes later it all came back up. I went back to bed because I felt horrible and then got up later and tried toast and butter. That didn’t stay down either. So I broke open my 2L bottle of ginger ale that I keep for when I am sick. Mom says that the ginger helps settle your stomach so she always gave us a big glass when we were sick. So I drank a glass of ginger ale and seemed better so I tried the toast. Nope, not a good idea. So I stuck with just ginger ale for the time being. I had to go to meet a friend because I said we would go to this class together but then I came home and had another nap. After that I got a piece of toast with butter down. I felt a little better, so I tried to add a little peanut butter in the mix. It stayed down but was not a good idea. I then had to go to campus to run the Fourth Year Meeting as I am the Fourth Year Rep at the School of Music and they had pizza there for people taking part. I looked at the pizza and felt queasy so I stayed away and kept drinking my ginger ale. After the meeting Shirley insisted I take a couple slices home with me so I wrapped them up and stuck them in the fridge when I got home. I then slept for another half hour and got up and had another slice of toast with peanut butter. By 9:00 I was starting to feel better and I was starving for something other than toast. So I got out the cold pizza and ate half a slice. Then, realizing how silly that was, put the rest back in the fridge. By the end of the day I had drank half the bottle of ginger ale (which I originally got for $1.99). I don’t know how many servings I kept down today but my total spending were $2.94. Here’s hoping I am better tomorrow.
