Recovering

You know, when I get sick, I usually just power through it, get more sleep, and I'm good to go.

But 2 weeks ago, I was flat on my back.

What started as a little cough and sniffle quickly reared its ugly head to a flu bug on top of a nasty head & chest cold.

Since I was sleeping 12-13 hours a night, napping a lot during the day, and not able to go to school or work for nearly 5 days, I'm still recovering. I'm bummed that I missed all that school and work hours, but thankfully, I'm not too far behind. However, I made a big mistake one day when I was sick that I am STILL paying for!

Robert had gone to Fred Meyer & bought me a bunch of medicines & cough drops & effervescents. No problem, right? Take the meds, go to bed. Wake up, take more, sleep more. Ect.

Yeah. It worked great until I woke up at 9:30am on Wednesday sick to my stomach and without a voice, and took the WRONG medicine - I drugged myself to sleep for the next 5 hours by mistakingly taking nighttime Tylenol Severe Cold. Since then, it's been near impossible for me to get back into a regular schedule. Grr...

Anyway, I stayed at my mom's last night after an incredibly long day, and I've got another one that I'm not even 1/2 way through with today. Yikes!

But Christmas is finally all put away at home, and the house is clean, which makes me happy. I'm just so darn tired!
