Sat 1 Sept

Yay! September is here, the month of the fair and then vacation! Hopefully I will feel healthier to enjoy it all. I took a dose of the cough medication before bed last night and I could tell that it helped. It did not completely suppress the cough, but the long, racking bouts did not happen and smaller urges were easier to ignore. I can take it up to 3 times a day, but it may make you drowsy so I plan to try to only use it at night. The daytime coughing has not been as persistent, and I'm glad to get the gunk out. We will go to the Highland Grill for lunch today since they sent me my birthday coupon for a free dessert. Tonight we have reservations at Bar La Grassa, one of T&L's 25 best Italian restaurants in the US. Tomorrow, the fair! And Monday, a day to recuperate at home and do laundry, yeah. Food: 7:45 am 1 c Trader Joe's multigrain flaxseed cereal, 1/2 c light original soy milk, 1/4 med cantaloupe, 89 g raspberries, Vitamix lemonade w/1 c grapes, 1 slice lemon, coffee
