Sickies

I've been sick for over a week now. I woke up Sunday to a sore throat, congestion, coughing (and not the nice, quiet kind), and general exhaustion. One of my coworkers got sick a few days prior to that and I think that's probably where I got it (especially considering that almost all the rest of my coworkers with the same age group got it). Sadly, while everyone else was getting better, I proceeded to get worse and worse. I went to get an allergy shot on Tuesday of last week and was told I couldn't have one. My allergist looked me over and said I had a cold and I should wait a day. I had my OB appointment (5 months) the next morning and she said the same thing (BTW: I also got my allergy shot that same day)...just a cold. Either way, I started getting worse. By Thursday morning, I couldn't breathe well, was coughing constantly, was blowing gobs of green, and generally felt like crap. I called my doctor's office and I wound up getting a prescription for a Z-pak. From the sounds of it, I either had bronchitis or a sinus infection (I'm betting a sinus infection, judging by the color of the icky green spewing from my nose). So, I called in to my summer job on Friday and missed Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday morning at the restaurant. It was a long weekend. Today, I'm at about 85% good...still coughing a bit here and there and there's ick in my throat but I can breathe!

So, hopefully, all is well.

Aside from that, I started working on my baby blanket last week. It's one I'm designing myself so we'll see how it goes. I have an idea of what I want it to look like. I'm hoping that it turns out how my head is envisioning it. When I get somewhere substantial, I'll post pictures. Until then, you're just going to have to wait :)
