Sunday/Monday
Mar. 31st, 2008 07:38 pmYesterday.. well, a pretty non-eventful day. Cooked, cleaned, cleaned some more. Felt really tired and a bit out of sorts. Crashed in bed fairly early.
Today.. woke up at 6 am with a really bad headache and a very sore throat. In my half asleep, I convinced myself to stop reading the book (hm? I think I was dreaming I was reading) and to just lay there and get better. By the time I got out of bed around 7, I felt a bit more decent, but I still ran out the door late and felt a bit off. Half an hour into work I realized I was sick, but had forgotten Tylenol and Advil at home, so I borrowed some from a co-worker. Usually that does me for the day, but I needed more in the afternoon. I drank a lot of water and a lot of mint tea and just forced myself to slow down a little and not overdo things. In hindsight, I probably should have gone home to sleep.
My boss asked me to work tomorrow, and I would have, even though it would mean another 6 day week, but I have 4 appointments booked tomorrow and I'm thinking about adding one more. Possible dental appointment for a cleaning, doctor appointment, massage appointment and a chiropractor appointment. I'm thinking about getting my brows done as well, but I might hold off for a couple of weeks. Makes me happy that three out of those five things are paid for by work, and the fourth is just covered by the gov't. I know I'm lucky. I appreciate it. Hasn't always been this way.
I'm taking ColdFX now, and am trying to kill this cold as quick as possible. My throat/chest are burning, which sucks.
