With nothing pressing on the calendar and the promise of good weather for the weekend, I anticipated having a much needed wind-down from a hectic week . . . until I woke up in the wee hours of Saturday morning feeling quite ill.   I finally crawled back into bed around dawn, telling my husband that the outing we had planned for Saturday was off.  After sleeping for a few more hours, I woke up to a beautiful midday, which I was determined to enjoy, but my stomach had other ideas!  I was well enough to grade quite a few papers, but not much else.  After a supper of weak tea and toast I started feeling a bit more myself, and by this morning I was more or less back to normal.  Thankfully, the weather was just as beautiful today, so the outing that was deferred yesterday took place today instead, and we finished off with a light dinner alfresco at sunset.  Glorious!
