Despite my infrequent posts in the past week, I’m still trying the NaBloPoMo thing. I may not post every day from here on out, but I’m still trying to post much more frequently than usual. We’ll see how that goes when I don’t have the flu to use as an excuse for not posting.
I don’t do sick well, which is funny considering my less-than-stellar lungs and susceptibility to turning common colds into respiratory infections and pneumonia. I’m going on day seven of being sick, and I’m slowly going crazy because of it. Except that today is so much worse, because today is the first day I actually feel like I have an ounce of energy. And after so long of doing absolutely nothing, it’s tempting to use that energy to accomplish something… anything, really. But the logical side of my brain says I should park myself on the couch for another couple days and resist the urge to do anything. I’m not talking running a marathon here, or even taking the dog for a walk. Just a load of laundry to extinguish some germs or maybe a little cleaning in the kitchen. It’s a fine line between doing just a little and doing too much though. Still, a little here and there is probably a good idea to work back up to normal. And who knows, maybe a teensy little dose of activity will actually help my immune system work back up to normal. A girl can hope, right?
