Q: Today was tough because _______. A: ... when I woke up, I couldn't talk or breathe since my nose and throat were not well. (Think I might have a cold.)
Had every intention of being productive outside my apartment today but woke up with my nose and throat at odds with each other. Spent the first part of the day resting and then became functional around lunchtime - taking care of laundry, deep-conditioning/detangling my hair, making foods for my belly, paying bills, and other assorted stuffs.
