I hate being sick! The worst part of being sick is that number of things to get done multiples exponentially!
Friday evening, as I left work, I did what I usually do on the bus ride home.... prioritize the tasks to complete over the next few days. Most weekends/evenings, I know what I am going to tackle (Yep! Doing nothing and lounging in front of the TV counts towards my things-to-do. I have become a compulsive-doer-of-something, even if something is sleeping! Weird! I know, but that is the only way I seem to get some free time).
This past weekend was not any different from the others, the task list included: Read Harry Potter, Watch movie: Shooter, Clean and reorganize whole kitchen (something was not correct and it kept bothering me), Rip staircase carpeting, Wine Tasting, Trip to Home Depot (list ready), Trip to Jordan’s Furniture (Reading), Meet Lee (Starbucks) and of course the normal other weekend stuff of laundry, ironing, kitty time blah blah blah. By the time I reached home, though, my throat was scratchy, nose was running, and eyes were watering. Oh! Crap! I popped some medicines and flopped on the couch. My kitties kept me company!
Weekend, I did make the trip to Jordan’s, to meet Lee and check out some furniture. But Lee was not there, so spent more time in Jordan’s looking at office desks and curio cabinets. This is where my head hurt like crazy and I started to feel dizzy. Maybe I should eat! I did, but it simply went from bad to worse. I trooped to Home Depot, (thank goodness this was easy, I had a list and knew exactly what I wanted to get). By the time I got home. I knew I was doomed! It was going to be a bad migraine. I don’t suffer very often, but prolonged exposure to heat at 85+ deg is a sure trigger for me.
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday were spent curled up in bed, with all curtains closed, and kitties sitting at the foot of my bed, going “meow” every time I twitched or turned. Poor things! I think they knew I was sick! I am finally back at work this morning and it is a struggle! I am headed home today and curling up and my task to do is _NOT_ to think about the tasks to do!
