Based on my previous post you can tell I have been little unhappy and a lot annoyed. To add to that, it was a busy work week and I was beginning to feel a bit under the weather. I had a minor headache and a stuffy nose from Wednesday to Monday. I tried my best to go to bed early during the week (which didn't happen) in efforts to revive my immune system. Over the weekend I said, "I'll stay in, drink Vitamin Water, take Echinacea and rest, rest, rest." And rest is what I did, excluding a bar mitzvah, NYC style on Saturday night (It was a late night, but not a drunken one, people). On Sunday I still felt yucky, but did get out of my apartment long enough to do some grocery shopping. It was sort of a lonely weekend since I opted not to answer my phone because any noise in my ear made my head hurt worse, but I thought whatever it takes to feel normal again. Then Monday came and I was still in a slump. You should have seen me when I walked in the door at 7:30, looked like I got punched in both eyes. Thankfully after about 1/2 hour I looked a little more presentable. I thought possibly it's allergies. I got home and went for the Claritin, the box was filled with tylenol (ugh), so I decided to tough it out. In attempt to distract myself from my 6th day of feeling like blahhhh, I made some phone calls. I was on the phone for a while just catching up, listening, laughing and discussing future aspirations. I got off the phone and amazingly I felt better. My head no longer hurt and I was filled with energy and happiness. So the doctor may say "an apple a day", but I say a good chat and some laughs with friends, family or whoever can sometimes be the best medicine. So thank you Haley, Mel B, Ryan and Rob for the fun and healing conversations from last night.
TODAY I WAS BACK TO ME!
