Out of commission

Well, long time no write.

I was completely knocked out with a cold/flu that still hasn't left yet. It started with a scratchy cough last week, and developed into a horrendously painful throat pain and now it is a painful sinus cold. Bending over hurts my head. But I've used up all my sick days and even one vacation day, and am heading back to work. I've been off since last Friday, when a friend came to stay with me. That turned out to be a mistake because she started getting sick and ended up going to stay in a hotel.

In other news, nothing but car problems and other money sponges this week. Just went to get the seatbelt fixed and the next day the back light burns out. My router also stopped working, as well as a light in my bathroom, and my computer is doing all kinds of crazy things. I can't catch a break! I'm starting to believe I was a bad person in a past life.

I wasn't eating much over the last week because frankly I wasn't doing much and it hurt to swallow. I decided to go ahead and try volleyball last night (and it felt good though I wasn't at 100%), and this morning I weighed in at 142.8!!! Yay! If I can get this cold out of my system by the weekend, I may still stand a chance of getting to 135 by January. For now I am taking it easy on the working out and trying to eat as well as possible. I will play volleyball tonight and then take the weekend off.

Alright, not much else to report considering I've mostly been hanging around my apartment sleeping, so I will be heading to work. I can't hear out of one ear, am stuffy, coughing and my sinuses ache, and THAT is an improvement!!!
