I was good at taking it slow on Sunday and Monday. Well, sort of.

Saturday I sang and played a gig. I was the lead singer. I put a tremendous effort out and it went great. I was able to sing well. I sat on a stool rather than standing. The audience was receptive and enthusiastic. I was able to present several of my original songs as well as a few standards. I even had a nice chat with several people after the show.

I was glad that my husband drove me because on the way home, I ran out of gas. My tongue was paralyzed and I couldn't talk. If I had been pulled over, I would have been arrested for drunk driving. Then it because difficult to breath. I tried to relax and concentrate on breathing and it got easier in a few minutes.

By the time we got home I was a lot better. (It was an hour drive.) I have been a bit wobbly in my gait and my ptosis has been bad since, but I seem to be feeling ok this morning. I am going off to work here in a bit.
