A Huge Brick Wall....

Well, some of you may have noticed that I haven't posted a blog in a while. This is mostly because I haven't worked out in a while. I worked out on Wednesday, February 11th, so I can count that as Day 15. But that following weekend, I got a nasty cold. I first noticed the symptoms on Sunday, while we were in Cheyenne, and I felt progressively worse as the weekend went on. I tried to go to be early & sleep most of the way home, but I wasn't feeling better by Wednesday when I had to go back to work. Thursday was horrible. It was a stressful day at work, and it didn't help that I was still sick. I almost fell asleep several times while I was driving home from work. To make things worse, Thursday was also my birthday. I am forever grateful to my family for taking me out to dinner & celebrating with me, when all I felt like doing was sleeping. Friday was better, but I was at the school until 8:30 PM getting caught up on midterms. Saturday, I crashed. I felt worse Saturday & Sunday even though I took extra naps, went to bed early, & slept in. I even skipped a scheduled temple trip on Saturday, and church on Sunday. I hoped I would feel miraculously better on Monday, but I really don't. I can't remember the last time I had a cold that was this strong, this long. I feel as bad today as I did on the first day. If I don't feel any better tomorrow, I'm calling in sick on Wednesday. I don't know if taking one day off will help that much, but I've got to do something. I was suppose to start my official 5k training program today, but obviously that didn't happen. All I can do now is pray I get over this crap quickly.
