Its very sad, isn't it? Just when my schedule calmed down and I could start back into my normal routine (including exercise!), I get sick. I'm not horribly sick...I can get up and get things accomplished, but I definitely don't feel "normal". The main problem is that I have a never ending cough that keeps me up at night, which makes me very tired during the day. I probably should be thankful that I'm not laid up in bed, but I'm actually kind of annoyed that I'm not, haha. I figure, if I'm going to be sick, might as well do it right! Instead, my mind wants to do my normal stuff but my body just won't let me, and its making me frustrated. I don't think I would be as frustrated if I wasn't coming off a week of "abnormal" where I wasn't able to do my normal exercise routine either. Oh well, I am trying to take it easy (or easier at least), so hopefully I can get better fast and get back on track. We have a 10 mile race in a month, and this 2 weeks off is killing me!
Actually, I have had to fight the urge to go to the gym anyway (although I still haven't missed a spinning class). I hate it when people are sick and they go places anyway, ignoring how their germs might affect other people. So, while I am still coughing a lot, I want to do my best not to spread my germs. I did go to Kids Club this week, but I figured since I am the leader, it would be a much bigger deal if I didn't show up than if I did come with some germs. The gym, however, is a different story. Me spreading my germs there would just be selfish (I took sanitizer with me to my spinning class so I could make sure not to leave my germs on the bike...I really didn't want to miss any more spinning classes!)
On the other hand, I HAVE gotten many things accomplished on my To-Do list. My newsletter is in the mail, I got the oil changed in my car, I finished my receipts from my AIM trip and sent them in, I made an appointment for Bonita to get started with cyber school, got my real estate taxes taken care of (thought not paid for yet..waiting for the bill, yuck!), made an appointment to get started on my retirement account, got my dad a birthday present (its tomorrow!), got cable hooked up in Bonita's room, and will be picking up a new TV for her tonight (found a GREAT deal on craigslist!). You would think all of that would make me feel good, but I can't seem to get past my inability to exercise. I have a lot to learn...
So, the only things left on my To-Do list is A LOT of cleaning...and my taxes. Bonita and I have a cleaning plan for the weekend (including the house AND car), and once that is finished I will do my taxes. WHEW! Theoretically, that should mean that I can just settle into life as usual for a few weeks, until Cornerstone clubs go on break in May. That's just in theory though...
