Sick is no fun

Usually I'm healthy, don't often catch the bugs that go around, but when work stresses reach an all time high and interferes with the rest I should be getting as well, then the bug finds a way to zap me and take me down.

I fought my way through the work week, but it took me down. I've spent last weekend in bed, resting in one way or another. I can honestly say, I've had my fill of the old Friends episodes. lol The work week passed in a struggle of getting through, and while there are many things that need doing, things to get caught up again, I did not over extend myself, and took plenty of short rests (in the sun, of course!) to get back to my usual healthy self.

One of the things that happen when chores get behind, when you don' t feel well, is all the fun things in life fall by the wayside -- like getting out and taking pix. Or staying in and taking pix. :)

I picked up my fav book last night again, "Romancing the Ordinary", and while its good reading, makes you think about normal things in different ways, its harder to put her ideas into practice. but necessary! I'm growing older, and am alone, so I need to make sure I'm taking care of me, my needs, and making Life special. Because you just can't wait for someone else to make it special for you. We're all worth the effort, if only we'd make it, rather than letting TV, media, the internet, use up our time that we could be using on ourselves.

Ok, just me rambling today, seems there's still a bit of foggy brain going on, so I'll close.

HUGS to everyone!
