Ugh, being sick sucks!

Hello LJ land!

Man, this week has been rough. It started on Sunday with me feeling rundown. I knew I hadn't been sleeping well or very much so just chalked it up to that. Well apparently my body knew something I didn't. I woke up Monday feeling like I had been run over by a bus. I won't go into the details but let me just say that I was sick, so much in fact that I actually called in sick to work which I rarely do. I went to work last night against my better judgment and proceeded to freeze. I am normally a hot natured person. Anyone that has ever been to our house knows that we provide blankets upon request because we keep it so cool. I am not usually cold at work. Last night I had a long sleeve shirt, my work shirt, a fleece jacket and a hand warmer packet thing because my fingers were like ice and it hurt to type. Oh yea, I busted out the camping handwarmer thingies! I think that was the only thing that saved me. Oh, that and coming home on my lunch break and laying on the couch for 20 minutes in the middle of my shift. Last night was also the first night I was able to eat anything. I managed to eat a sandwich with minimal after effects.

So today I woke up and I feel 85% better. My systems seem to be working together today. However, now my throat hurts today. I don't know why but I am hoping it passes soon. I really don't want to be sick on my days off!

Speaking of days off, the only thing I have planned on my days off are getting my hair cut, colored, and highlighted. Thank goodness! It needs it so bad. I am shaggy and my color is blah! I also planning on working out if I feel better. I haven't worked out since getting sick. It sucks because I bought new workout shoes and everything. Yes I am a shoe whore! I know this and I am sure there is a 12 step program I should enroll in. Wanna see the newest addition to my shoe whore family?




Are you surprised they have purple in them? I know I posted some Nikes earlier this year that were more silver and purple but I ended up taking those back because they weren't as comfortable as they were when I tried them on. I want to go to the gym and try these shoes out. This is a good thing. Anything to motivate myself to get to the gym is an OK addiction with me!
