Rough week

This past week was a very trying week for me. I was out of the office most of the week. Monday was my flex Monday, I went to work on Tuesday, however I felt a sore throat and a slight cold coming along. So by Wednesday morning I felt ill. I slept most of the day, and I knew that I had a "sore thorat" that was just killing me. I had a fever most of day. By Thursday morning, I was totally miserable, I could not wait to go see my doctor and thank God they were able to squeeze me in by 10:30 am. Turns out that I had strep throat. When they took my temperature it was still 99.7.

Needless to say, I was forced to say home again on Friday. I was contagious so I pretty much stayed in my room. I was going crazy already, I could not read for long periods of time, because my eyes were irritated, and I had a sinus headache.

It was not a fun week for me. So I am very excited about going to work tomorrow. It's amazing, how much we take for granted. In my case it's my health, I had not been sick in a while, so I forgot how miserable one can feel. I have a new appreciation for living a healthy lifestyle. I missed my job, I kept thinking about all the things I could be doing, and how much I could get ahead with my internship task. I also missed my peers, I mean it. These are the people I spend 40 hours a week with, and with all our differences, they make me smile.

I am feeling much better now. I have been on antibiotics for 4 days now, I am no longer contagious. I am ready to return to work recharged and full of energy as will need it since I will have tons of work to do tomorrow.

I will complete all my tasks with a smile. ;)
