magidThis has been the hardest minor fast day in a long time, mostly because I'm still in the throes of some ick that started days ago.
Wednesday I started feeling badly, but I thought it was about walking too many miles (33 miles in 3 days, with a high of 17 miles on Tuesday), staying up late two nights in a row, and not eating enough. All of which was true, but I also was coming down with something, as I didn't start recovering Wednesday evening at a lovely RH dinner (albeit a bit loud, with four little kids there). I went to bed at a reasonable hour, but had fevers/chills overnight, and through the next day, as I developed the more-usual (for me) runny nose, and then started on a sore throat that evolved into a cough. So today, my nose is finally getting over the bout of exercise, but my throat/chest feel kinda awful, and I was debating having some hot water pretty much all afternoon. Amazing how anesthetizing TV can be.... and now typing this up took the last minutes before the end of the fast, so off I go to get that mug of hot water and figure out what to eat. Hope it was easier for everyone else fasting!
