No Pills – Day 1

At 3:30 a.m. the drug induced sleepiness wore off and I was awake for a full hour before I could get back to sleep.  With no pills I feel better already although the trips the bathroom are still happening.  I didn’t realize I had so much nausea.  

I actually got hungry today and went shopping so I could put some bullion into the rice for a change.  I also dumped waste tanks and filled the fresh water tank. 

It’s a good thing I got stuff done this morning as it has been raining all afternoon.  Red barks at the sound of it when it starts.  She is sometimes a nervous twit.  This evening a little lightening is thrown in.  It’s nice sitting in a warm dry RV and listening to the rain on the roof.   I still walk the dogs but we take much shorter walks except for detours around puddles.  I can wear a raincoat, they can’t.  So that involves a towel when we get back.

Teddy is learning.  He has always tried to mark over where Red peed.  Lately he has been in such a hurry to do it that he peed on her which mortifies her.  So I have been teaching him to wait till she is done, then he can go.  He looks at me plaintively while he waits.  When I first got him he tried several times to mark on me.  Male dogs have a whole different slant on pee.  Maybe it has something to do with being a rescued dog.  He didn’t have a family for the first 2 or 3 years of his life. 

It is supposed to rain tomorrow, too.  That’s okay as long as I feel better as I do today.

Later….
