Misery - Day 3

Still sick.

Today I have to go over to the photoshop at the mall and check out designs for the department Christmas card so I can show them to Jeannie tomorrow, because it's the one day she will be in the office. Hopefully I can take a hot shower (which really helps clear my sinuses and lungs), get over there quickly, and get out quickly. I'd hoped I could view a catalog of designs on their website, but no luck.

Then I'll come back and collapse.

The back of my throat is raw from coughing. My voice sounds very strange, and I don't feel much like talking right now because it hurts and I have medicine head.

Oh, There I Am!

A combination of time, drinking a lot more water, and napping seems to have turned my cold around. I feel almost myself again. It's helping that my Ex has taken our daughter and the twins to a horseback riding event this afternoon so they are out of the house and it's much quieter than it would otherwise have been.

I'm going to coddle myself for a while longer, and then hopefully have enough energy to get the dishes done, because just about every plate and piece of silverware I have is dirty.

Also: I've joined the LJ Weight Watchers community and added a weight loss ticker to my Info page. So far, keeping to my daily points allotment has been relatively easy. The only bad night was Thursday, when I was getting sick. I had the munchies, and no energy, and really wanted comfort food, so I had two quesadillas and some chocolate that was lying around, and didn't even bother to find out the point total. But the last two days I've eaten very little, so I suspect that it will all work out. Besides, there are 35 bonus points for the week that I hadn't even touched to absorb the extra. I also just calculated that the way I make the quesadillas they are only five points, so that's not nearly as bad as I had feared.
