Goals of the Week:
-GET WELL.

Progress on Last Week's Goals:
- Finish wool scarf for church group - unfinished.  Had pleanty of time to work on it, but didn't want to get my germs all over it.
- Get back on a regular sleep schedule - failed due to being sick all week.

What has been happening to me?
Well so much for getting anything done this past week.  I've been fighting the mother of all colds (possibly the same thing my mom had) this past week and it has wiped me out.  I pulled a muscle in my chest from all the coughing I've been doing.  It's been rough, and even though I'm getting better, I'm not getting well.  The cough is still persisting, and my ribs will not recover until it stops.  I finally got to the point where I could breathe and actually stand up for long periods of time, so I'm back to work.  I had to miss two days of work but I am not kidding when I say it feels like I've been gone for weeks.  I don't know what the deal is, but I am extremely out of it.  Been having a hard time remembering what day it is, and my perception of time is extremely warped.

What have I been thinking about?
Been feeling guilty about not finishing this scarf for church, but I didn't want to be coughing all over it since it's going to someone who has a weak immune system.  As it is I will probably have to disinfect it from it just being in the house with me.

What have I been feeling?
Increasingly distant.  I am not a needy sick person.  When I get sick I shove people away because I don't want to talk to them or be pitied by them.  I keep finding myself snapping at Ziggy and my parents when they try to be nice to me.  I don't want to be babied, I want to be left alone so I can get better.

Any last thoughts?
I have an 8 hour shift today and I'm hoping I can get through it with minimal coughing and hacking.

mondays, life
