Icky

I hate being sick. It doesn't happen very often but I'm a huge baby when it does happen. I caught something a little earlier in the winter (maybe in December) but I've held my own all winter long and didn't really get sick. That is until today.

It's technically spring so I technically didn't get sick this winter. Of course it's 35 and raining outside so it doesn't seem very spring like. What is it about getting sick that sucks so much? It's our body saying, "slow down, sleep, relax" why is it so hard to listen? Why do we always have to be on the go? I'm terrible at that. I try really hard to take time for me to relax and to sleep, but it doesn't always work for me.

This morning I told myself that I had to go to work. I had to work a half day. I had 3 appointments this morning and some work to get done, so I could go in until noon and be ok. Well it's 10:30am and I'm wondering why I "forced" myself to do that. I tell myself a bunch of the time that I'll "feel better" once I get out of the house, that maybe I just don't want to go to work...but this time I'm sick. I'm sick and I'm stuck at work for another hour and a half...and I'm being a baby about it because I'm sick.

Spring sick I think is worse than winter sick. Everyone expects you to get sick in the winter, during the spring they think it's a lie. Even on a cold and rainy day (they think you just want to cuddle on the couch and read...which yes I do...after I nap).

Ugh, stoopid being sick.
