After feeling better, I had a couple of long days and am coughing a lot again. Sigh. I've been through this before, where I talk myself into thinking I'm better than I really am, I go out and do too much and never get really well. When I get tired, the cough gets much worse.

I had been scheduled to participate in an Alternatives to Violence in Prison training at Soled State Prison this Th/F. Two very long days with no break. Last night, i realized this was a recipe for health disaster, and had resigned myself to canceling. Before I could call, we got a message from the other facilitators that the session was canceled because the prison is in lock-down. Now, there is such a thing as turning things over to God or Higher Power or whoever, but this strikes me as being a bit extreme.

So what did I do today? I spent an hour in the sun, picking 2 buckets of plums from a neighbor's tree, and tomorrow I start on jam. But now I'm off to bed with a Lisa Goldstein novel.
