So I woke up in the middle of the night last night and my throat was all swollen and there was phlegm EVERYWHERE (you know you wanted to know). My alarm went off at 6:10 as usual. I seriously spent an hour debating calling in sick...I won and stayed home today.
Last Wednesday I also stayed home from work. I was feeling sick and I had a fever so I figured I shouldn't go in and spread it to all my coworkers. The next day I woke up feeling mostly better but that day all through yesterday I pretty much felt...blah. You know the feeling. Not really bad, but just a little down and a little tired and sort of like you don't want to do anything because doing anything might actually make you feel actually sick...yeah. Fun. But I went to work anyway, because feeling blah isn't really an excuse to stay home.
But having your throat swell up and not being able to breathe through your nose because of the snot and body aches and head aches and stuffy ears are definitely an excuse to stay home.
I have been battling this cold for over a week now. I was planning on going down to visit my family this past weekend but I decided not to go because my sister and my mom were both sick and I didn't want to get sick (irony). So I stayed home, which did me ZERO good because Allene's son was sick and so everyone else in the house got sick too, so I should have just gone down to be sick with my family. At least I would have seen everyone. So, the visit has been put off until this coming weekend, assuming we all aren't dead.
Scott came home and we decided we need to be healthier and stop eating out so much, so we went grocery shopping and got lots of fruits and veggies and stuff to make actual meals and stuff to make lunches so we aren't spending so much money. Hopefully we will lose some weight and feel healthier. Either way, our wallets will be fatter.
At the store today I stubbed my toe (again, this is a trend) and it was bleeding all over. Yay me.
