A peak into my life as I work towards becoming a healthier, happier person. I look forward to sharing my trials and my successes with you and if even one person becomes inspired by my story I'll be even happier.

I HATE BEING SICK!
So it started Sunday and I was in denial, Monday was a bit worse and I started to accept it and by yesterday I had to accept that I have a cold. It didn't seem too bad until last night. I had been really looking forward to my run but on the way home the rain started and I knew that to run in the rain with a cold would just make me miserable so I left my shoes where they were and spend the evening on the couch. I sent the hubby for some vicks vaporub and made a tea. I figured if I relaxed for the evening I would be better off today. Then I tried to go to bed. I spend a lot of the night awake trying to breath and to get my nose to clear out just a bit so I could get comfortable and get some sleep. This morning I woke up and thought that if I had a nice hot shower I would feel better. By the time I was done, I was done! It was evident that I wasn't going to make it through a day at work and that it wasn't fair to the people around me. I was supposed to go to a networking event this morning and the thought of meeting people, shaking hands and having to be social just didn't work for me. First I didn't think it was fair to the other people to spread my germs around and second because I just didn't think I had the stamina to be friendly for several hours. So I called in sick and spent the day on the couch. I feel better tonight than I did this morning and am hoping that tomorrow I will be feeling even better!!! I really want to run tomorrow night and am going to follow the neck rule. So far it's above the neck for the most part so I should be ok to run. I have asthma though so in the blink of an eye a cold can move below the neck and that would kill my plan for tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed folks!!! I want to get out there even if it is rainy!! I actually really liked running in the rain the few times I did it.
