Light at the end of the tunnel
Went to the doctor yesterday. Got some antibiotics. Actually slept last night. Woke up once with a horrible coughing fit, but beyond that, I slept the night through. My nose is a little clearer this morning and not so clogged up. I'm still really physically beat - I feel like I've been through the ringer - but I actually see some light at the end of the tunnel. I think I'm finally over the hump; the worst is over. This morning was also the first time I didn't wake up sweating and feverish. Thank goodness. I can't wait to finally be myself again. This whole experience has been so frustrating and painful.

Not much else going on right now. Trying to figure out when I'm going to be heading back in to the temp job. Four hours at home blowing your nose and coughing are totally different from four hours at a job, under fluorescent lighting answering a phone blowing your nose and coughing. Not to mention my strength is utterly depleted at this point from the near week of illness. Walking around for an hour yesterday going to the doctor then to the store to get some food and the prescription left me literally trembling with fatigue. I slept for two hours when I got home. You know how it is when you're sick and your body feels too heavy to move. Anyway, I'm wondering about tomorrow but shooting for at least Friday. I may set the alarm and see how I feel trying to wake up tomorrow morning. I think my body's going to protest but I can at least try.

Well, that's really about all that's going on so just wanted to give a better update for once. Sick of talking about being nothing but sick! *chuckles* Hope everyone's well.
