Self Portrait Sunday 4/19/09
I just love that you can see how raw my nose and upper lip are in this picture. I started feeling like something was coming on Wednesday afternoon. Thursday morning, I woke up and discovered I was right! Thursday, Friday, and part of Saturday I had a wicked sore throat. I’ve been stuffy and blowing my nose for days now. I feel like it’s slightly better now than it was, but I’ve also been using the Neti Pot every couple of hours for the last couple days. It will be interesting to see how I am tomorrow when I’m at work and can’t do that. Other than NyQuil so I can sleep, I’ve been trying to stay unmedicated… going the route of trying to get everything up and out rather than suppressing all my symptoms.
In addition to constant noseblowing, I spent a whole lot of time laying around, “resting.” Not a real exciting weekend around these parts. Unless you count killing the battery in my car. I discovered that when I went to take my Old Navy return to the post office. I’m glad I did too– I wouldn’t have liked to find that when I was trying to leave for work at 6:30 tomorrow morning.
Oh Friday night was slightly more exciting. Sarah and I went to the casino. But don’t get too excited, I won’t be booking my Vegas hotels any time soon. Both of us ended up “donating” all the money that we walked in with. That’s my weekend in a nutshell! Losing all my money, and then losing my mind.
