Today has not been a good day.

I fell asleep at 5:30 last night and slept until 2:30 this morning. I had plans to go over and visit with my best friend since I hadn't seen her for over a month so I decided to just stay up and get things done that I didn't do the night before.

I dropped my hubby off at 5:30 and headed over to Shannon's house. When I woke up I was really achy but passed it off as something that would go away as the day wore on. When I pulled up to her house and got out of the car I gasped from the pain. My hip and knee joints were screaming! I stayed and visited for a couple of hours, but finally decided to head home so I could stretch out on the bed and also to let Shannon get some sleep since she'd worked the night before.

I didn't stretch out when I got home. I curled in to a little ball and sobbed for a half an hour before getting up and raiding every ibuprofen and non-asprin bottle I could find. I finally found a few of each and took them and laid back down. I slept for awhile, but couldn't get comfortable so I got back up.

I'm feeling a little better now, but jeez! What the heck is up with me?! Seems like I'm feeling shitty and sick at least half of every week. It sucks. I feel like a whiny hypochondriac lately.

I swear I'm not fishing for sympathy, I just needed to vent. Hopefully I'll figure out what's going on soon and get the hell over it.

Sick

I just wanted to stop in so nobody thought I was ignoring my blog or not visiting. I've been sick as hell the last few days (since my last post) and haven't been on the computer much except to check my email or read a blog every now and then. It started with tummy trouble on Tuesday and yesterday and today I've had horrible headaches. I have no idea where the headaches are coming from, but they're bad; almost as bad as the migraines I've had in the past.

Love you all; I'll visit soon.

Tired

I'm tired today. I finally got my craft room cleaned up and though I'm proud of it and happy it's done, I'm sore and cranky. Sometimes I just get sick of the everyday hustle, you know? I have it easy by a lot of peoples standards...I don't have to work, we don't have kids and most of the time my husband is great. I hate days like this where I'm in a funk for no reason. I hope it gets better as the day goes on!

Yesterday was a meh day food wise. I did well all day, until dinner (like normal!) We had barbeque chicken, some amazing cheddar bread and I ate cherry cheesecake for dessert. I should have known better, if for no other reason than I haven't been eating much sugar the past couple of weeks and the cheesecake sent me spinning. I was physically sick to my stomach after I ate it and need to remember that next time I decide to indulge in something that I know I shouldn't be eating.

We're coming up on the weekend again and this one's going to be a little different. My husband has been working a lot of overtime lately and he's burned out. He does forklift driving and loads custom made patio doors onto trucks. Most of these are 200+ pounds apiece and some of the bigger customs are 400 pounds. He loads most of the 200 lb. ones by himself. He managed to get his boss to allow him to take a couple days of his vacation, despite being their busy season. He needs it and I think it'll do a world of good, but it also means that he'll be home to throw off my schedule (sounds awful, doesn't it?!) I don't care though, I'll be happy to have him home and maybe he can go back to work next week feeling a little fresher. It does mean that I probably won't update much, but I will if I can, just to keep me honest.
