Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 90 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. I just got up about 20 minutes ago. For real. I had a rough night. I had a massive case of food poisoning. It came on so quickly around 5 pm. I was puking and, well, things were coming out the other end at the same time. It was an absolute disaster. This went on until about midnight when it suddenly stopped. So I woke up late this morning and just kind of stayed in bed drinking water for a couple of hours. My stomach is still gurgling but the water stayed down and I am able to wear shorts again. Ahem. I'm having a strawberry banana peach smoothie made with coconut milk for breakfast. I am hoping it stays down. I need to get some calories into my body after a couple of rough days. I am going to stay here in the apartment and wait for awhile to see how it does in my system. If I'm okay then I'm going to head over to the pool. What's everyone else up to today?

Food poisoning is the worst. It makes you feel so, so sick. I hope you are kind to yourself today and just basically do nothing strenuous at all. Take good care!

I haven't done much of anything. I didn't even make it over to the pool. The smoothie stayed down but I've had to take several TUMS to make that happen.

@MarieCoyle Yes I do need to deal with the no-food days but last night was not that. It was food poisoning.

@NJChicaa Here comes the mom-nag...yeah, yeah...go somewhere and figure out what all is wrong that you have at least one day a week like that, not keeping down even water. Don't wait until school starts, when you will be stressed anyway. You can't keep this up forever, it's just not getting better by itself. **Climbs off of soapbox**

I'm currently at work, as usual. It's been a busy, hectic and chaotic week at work. I'm definitely looking forward to going home and having the weekend off. I need the time off.

I’m so sorry you’re suffering with food poisoning. Hope the smoothie stays down and soothes your tummy. Feel better quickly! I just had lunch (which I won’t discuss, given the current fragile nature of your digestive system), and I’m sitting here listening to “She’s a Beauty” by the Tubes on the restaurant piped-in music before I leave.

Times like that are so awful. I have sat on the loo with a bucket between my knees a few times. I hope your food stays down today.
