4-Day weekend/Sincere Apology

The good news is that I have been taken out of work for at least two days.
The bad news is that I have really bad bronchitis, sinus infection, double ear infections, swollen glands, and possible pneumonia. I’m on antibiotics and inhalers. If I’m not better in two days, I have to go back for a chest x-ray.
I guess I didn’t want to give in to the fact that I was sick, and have been for 11 days now.
My complete inability to breathe should have been an indication that I needed medical attention. (Or the fact that I’ve sat up the past 2 nights because I was gasping for air?)
I really thought I had this on my own, with no medications, with no MDs. Bummer!

I somehow got up, and made it to the 9 am service this morning. It felt like someone was stabbing me in the lungs, and I couldn’t even stand up for praise and worship because I couldn’t breathe and didn’t have the energy. Don't even ask me what the service was about. LOL
So I guess at that point I decided I needed to do something about it.

Anyway….this isn’t a poor me story. I’ll get over it.
Although I know should stay home and rest for the next two days, anyone who truly knows me, knows what’s really gonna go down.
I have the complete inability to sit still, or to sit down, for more then 15 minutes at a time. I have to be doing SOMETHING. That, coupled with the fact that I hate being alone, is indicating to me, that I need to make plans. That’s a potential 48 hours with no human contact. I’m spiraling into a panic attack just thinking about it.
Ok now I’m just being dramatic.
It’s actually a perfect time to be seeking God for answers that I need right now for a MULTITUDE of things.

I’m missing Nicki’s last day at work tomorrow, and I’m SUPER bummed. However…I just ordered her the coolest parting gift EVER, and it’s going take about a week to get here. So once it does, I’ll be hand delivering it to her in Bennington.

The remaining point of this, is that I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE to everyone that I have potentially infected this past weekend. I’m praying for protection for everyone that I’ve been in contact with. I highly suggest Airborne, Vitamin C, Zinc, Echinacea...

Well, I have to admit...I've gotten used to you smelling my polish meat seasonings in the morning. It's hard to start my day without you smelling it.
