Shutting down.
It is so brrrrr outside. Bet it would be great to have heated mattress pads. Especially since it seems my body is having a hard time trying to shake off this bug that wants to invade my system. My voice isn’t quite back to normal yet and I have this constant itchy throat. Been drinking ginger/lemon/honey tea for the past week and religiously downing my vitamins but this bug just doesn’t want to take a hint. Getting sick right now is the last thing I need. I think whatever I have all started when I was drowning in stress over some writing assignments that I procrastinated on last minute (I had since the beginning of the semester to complete my work but instead, I waited til last minute — gee, so typical of me). It also doesn’t help that it is just so flippin’ cold.
Looking forward to heading to Vegas for a holiday break. But before that happens, I have a major paper to write, some chapters to reread in time for my final essay exam and more studying. Still luckier than most because I’m only taking 2 classes this semester. Christmas shopping will have to take a backseat for now. Keeping house and being mommy and wifey on top of school is enough for me to handle right now.
Fingers crossed my body doesn’t shut down. Afterall, us mommies don’t have a call-in-sick option.
