Illnesses and Life

Well, February is halfway over and I've been sick for most of it. I came down with the flu (influenza B) for several days the first week of February and then I had a nasty cough for a week so I went to the doctor again. Well, fortunately I went early because they caught the beginning of pneumonia, thanks to the flu I had. No wonder I had such a nasty cough and was still feeling "blah". I'm on some hardcore meds to try and get rid of this crap which is great but they make me feel... weird. And apparently, one of the meds increases my risk of rupturing a tendon? That is great to know... especially with all my workouts and training I'm doing. I'm hoping to beat this stuff for good and get back to 100% ASAP. This crap has caused my hubby and I to postpone our Valentine's Day plans until I feel better. I spent the day relaxing with my hubby. He has been a good nurse. :)

This week brings a busy 3 days of work before I jump on a plane for sunny California! It's for business but I am excited. Hello In-N-Out Burger!! Oh how I've missed you! :) I love California! I'm also looking forward to enjoying warmer weather... I'm ready for our weather to warm up!

So, with all this illness crap I'm dealing with, I sure hope I'm doing better for my trip. I'm functioning with this crap (obviously - I went back to work with this lung crap last week before I went to the doctor and am working this week, too) but I just don't feel great. I'm ready to feel better so I can get into tip-top shape for the marathon (hopefully this stuff hasn't completely ruined my training for it) and our 13 day, 12 night Hawaiian vacation!

I'm back!

So, I'm not very good at this whole blogging thing. I use other social networks but I am lacking in the blog world. I'm going to try and change that! I've got a lot going on in life and I'm going to write it down. So, here's to a fresh start!
