Sick Day

The best nurse a girl could ask for... Lily

Over the last week or so I have been somewhat under the weather, if we have been friends for long you know that it really takes a lot for me to say that I am sick. However, this is one of those times. I was legit sick. On Saturday I started to feel a little rough as my mom and I ran all over town and worked on my apartment. By the time she left for my grandfathers I was in a bad way. I think I read for a bit on my new couch listening to Christmas music and looking at the tree before heading to bed.

When I got up on Sunday morning I was in for a world of hurt. It was a rough morning but I pulled myself together and hit up Target and planted some flowers. In the afternoon I had to pick up my dad from the airport, on the way to do that my car died on the side of the highway... more about that adventure soon. Once my brother brought my back to the house I was done. It was rough. I had it all: the sneezing, the coughing, the runny nose, the all around pouts. So I watched my Netflix and went to bed early.

Monday morning, I called in sick to work. This was hard because I am a workaholic most of the time. Also I didn't want to ride the DART into work seeing as that did not go well the last time. So I slept in and hung out with Lily. I will admit I was tempted to go to my grandfathers house so that I could watch TV. I mean what good is being sick if you don't get to watch the price is right and if you are really lucky let's make a deal. I love to watch garbage on TV when I am sick (really all the time). I spent most of the day lying on the couch with Christmas music playing while I read a book. For the most part Lily curled up at my feet and wondered when we were going to play since I was home for the day.

It was a long day at home on Monday but today, Thursday, I am feeling much much better. I am looking forward to feeling 100% again soon but in the end I am just glad that I don't feel like death anymore. I hate being sick.
