Sick Days

Sick days--no one likes them or at least I don't.  You feel miserable (normally) and while it's nice to have your house or apartment to yourself, you normally don't have enough energy to get anything productive done.  I woke up this morning with a cold sweat and thought a hot shower would help but ended up making it worse.  I decided it would be in my best interest to stay home from school which was a tough decision for me.  Part of me wanted to tough it out but I also knew that I could not stand for very long so school would not have been pleasant.

I slept til almost noon today after decided to stay home.   I felt better when I woke up but was still pretty exhausted and had little to no energy.  Eventually I moved to make myself some food and in the afternoon, I had to run some errands so I was out for about 30ish minutes and that was more than enough for me.  I've been pretty lazy the rest of the evening.  I was supposed to make chicken enchiladas for the girls tonight but no one wants food made from a sick girl so that did not happen.  Hopefully I have time tomorrow.  I have been packing a box to ship back home for Christmas break so I don't have to check a bag that has to go tomorrow.  It is rather difficult to pack for a place you won't be at for a week plus staying there for 2 weeks.  I might be over-packing but I'd rather do that than under-pack and not have enough clothes for home.  It's nice not to have to pack heavy clothes like my coats and long sleeve shirts though.  That definitely gives me more space to pack more clothes!

So to sum up this blog tonight, being sick is no fun but that's another day finished so Kansas is slowly but surely getting closer.  Fingers crossed that I feel better so I can go to school tomorrow and celebrate the Immaculate Conception!
