The Cold That Won't Go Away

Ok what gives.....I have had this cold 9 days. Yes, I do feel much better then I did four days ago. I've been going to work and I started back working out. But, it's still hanging around. So today I decided that; a - it just plain likes me and wants to hang out; b -it's making up for the past 4 or 5 years that I haven't gotten a cold; or c- I'm getting paid back for not making time to see the nurse at work to get my annual flu shot. However, I think that c is just a coincidence.

But never fear, I am going to kick this cold to the curb and next week, I get back to my normal workout routine so I can lose these last few pounds and shape up.

She wasn't so bitter today!

This morning I left for working thinking that she would be in a foul mood. I even told the hubs that I was a little worried about it. I'm still not feeling 100 percent and to make matters worse, I got a not so wanted visitor too. So based on that I had convinced myself, it would be a really tense day at the office.

Boy, was I wrong. She was in a great mood. Actually, I haven't seen her in this good of a mood in a long time. We talked a bit and I came to find out that she went out with some friends on New Year's Eve and since she didn't drive, chose to have ALOT to drink (as she put it) and had a great time. We had a little talk about the breakup and how it happened. I asked her if she felt that maybe he did it because it was Christmas and her birthday is in a few weeks. She doesn't think so, but she said that another friend of hers suggested the same thing. I tend to agree and think he'll call her in February. We'll see, but now she's going to focus on her career. I hope this is a start to a good year for her. Oh, and for me too, because I hate to go in that room with all the tension.

On another note...since I still had the sniffles and cough, I passed on the working out. I didn't want to get all sweaty then have to go in the locker room, which is extremely cold, even after you have the showers going...I really don't want to have a relapse of this.

I got my first comment today!! Gives me a reason to get on here more and write...heck maybe I'll clue my friends on to this. So not ready for family to know...heeheehee...you know I may have to write about something very secret....

And for all you Biggest Loser fans!! Tomorrow is the night for the start of the new season..

No body loves me...

And that is so not true. But I have no comments on any of my blogs yet. Um, well, that could be because nobody knows that I've created blog or no blog stalkers out there have come across my blog...

I haven't told anybody, because, as my not so secure self is thinking that my friends will think this is stupid or something. But at least for me it's a place to write down my feelings. And hopefully somebody out there will eventually come across this and post a comment.....lol..

So how has 2009 been to me so far? Not so good. I came home from work Tuesday the 30th feeling like I was coming down with a cold. The same cold that John was just getting over. By the next morning, I was a little worse. I decided to call off work sick because it was sleeting a little and with me not feeling good, I just didn't want to chance it. Good thing, because as the day progressed it just got worse. And kept getting worse. By friday night I thought that it just couldn't get worse. Nothing was helping me and at 4AM Saturday morning it got worse. John felt so bad that he got up and went to the 24 hour Walgreen's. With the Pharmasist's help, he came home with Ny-quil D. He told John it was the strongest OTC medicine and if that didn't help I would have to go to the Dr. I took a dose at 5AM, fell asleep and when I woke up and 9:30, I was feeling a tad better. It's Sunday night and I feel a whole lot better. I still have it, but at least I can think straight. I cleaned a little today and made us dinner.

The funny part about this and a lesson learned; John asked me three times if I was sure I wanted him to sleep in the bed with him. I kept telling him yes. I figured if we just slept with our backs together, I would be fine. Nope, wrong. The next time either one of us is sick, we aren't sleeping together. So I hope that not anytime soon, because I hate sleeping by myself.

Tomorrow is another day, and I'm hoping that I can start working out again. I joined in on a few challenges on Sparkpeople (my diet and exercise site) and I don't want to get to behind on them.

So here's hoping that the rest of 2009 is good. We'll also have to see what or how the bitter co worker's mood is tomorrow...
