R4, P2, VLCD 9 - Preparing our Home (.6lb Release)

I had a rough night last night. Even with the toddy and the medication, I was up hacking and coughing for hours (with further thought, the toddy probably helped to get a lot of the yuck up and out). I finally piled loads of pillows together and became a neck contortionist, just to keep the drip from making me bark like an old dog. It worked for a while, then I had to readjust. Overall, I would say I got about four hours of sleep. I'm grateful that my job allows me to work from home or I would have frightened anyone who saw me.

We are in the midst of preparing to put our house up for sale. It's a bittersweet, albeit stressful time. The eldest managed to organize our coat and household closet, hubby cleared off a huge area on our counter, then organized it to sheer perfection. Finally, he took care of our landscaping. Tomorrow, I'll probably tackle the bedroom and make it presentable for potential buyers. Ten years we've been in this house. It carries with it a lot of memories, but we'll make more where ever we end up.

It was a good day, on the low side with calories. I may have one more cup of tea before bed so, assume it in the list below (okay, there's nothing to add with tea and Stevia):

I was 168.6lbs this morning. I wonder if the whiskey, extra Splenda (mocha splenda in my morning and afternoon coffee) or Wasa effected the total. We'll see what the scale shows tomorrow, since I avoided all of these items today.
