Hottie

Until recently I hadn't had bad night sweats and I was counting my blessings for that. I had heard stories about my friends waking up several times per night covered in sweat. I had nights sweats occasionally, the bad kind every so often. Until this week and last week. 

Last night I felt my body getting hot. I am used to that. But not used to the heat I was feeling. For the first time I felt sweat dripping down my face. My face and neck felt like they were on fire. I grabbed a towel and wiped off my face, neck and hands. I laid there fanning myself and chugging down a glass of ice water. 

After what seemed like forever I was cool again. I didn't cover myself up again with the blanket for fear I would get hotter the hit again. I just laid there thinking. I was thinking about the question I had been on  everyone's Facebook page lately. If you could give advice to your younger self what would it be? I pondered that question in my mind as I drifted back to sleep. My answer was I haven't got a clue.
