Little Miss Sickie

So, I started this post a couple days ago with the intention of actually finishing it. But I didn't. Instead, I went to bed early because I've been sick. Last week, I was so violently sick, I had to stay in bed for 2 days. Two HORRIBLE days of chills, a fever and nausea. Thankfully I didn't vomit. I hate doing it. Anyway, whatever I had turned into an equally horrible cold. From Thursday through Saturday, I was out for the count. Sunday, I had to go back to work since I had already missed my shift on Friday. Thankfully I had a short shift because the thought of having to work a full shift made me even more tired than I already was. Monday, I went home early when my voice decided to take a hike. After lots of water and Gatorade and rest, I'm happy to report that I am on the mend.

To say that I've been resting a lot would be an understatement. I literally have been sleeping and laying in bed as much as I can. Today, I woke up around 10 AM but stayed in bed till about 1 o'clock this afternoon. It felt great to rest, but I felt bad for not being productive. I didn't do much of anything anyway. I made a roast in the slow cooker, ate popsicles, took a shower, and managed to somehow delete all the music and videos off of my iPod. I'm still fuming about that. Ugh...I guess that just gives me more reason to go home for a visit and steal music off my sister's iTunes. Going home would definitely make me happy. I need a little vacation, but I also need the money...

*sigh*

A round trip ticket would be less than 300 bucks. So, in theory, I should be able to fly home for a couple days and still have some money to my name. Still. I need the money.

Dear Money Fairy, please give me some dough to go home. K? Thanks.

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...

No time

It's been roughly 5 weeks since I last posted anything. Work and school have almost literally sucked the life out of me. My dad and I just got internet at the house, which does make things a lot easier. Even then...I really don't have time to do any real studying. Here's a typical day for me: 7 a.m. alarm goes off. try to wake up. press snooze a couple of times. wouldn't be human if i didn't, right? 7:15 a.m. actually get out of bed 7:20 a.m. shower 7:30 a.m. get dressed for work 7:40 a.m. try to remember to: fill my water bottle grab a can of soup & crackers for lunch grab CNA books & supplies eat something on the way out the door then curse myself for forgetting to grab my smock and name tag. unlock/lock the front door, again. 7:45 a.m. drive to work 8 a.m - 4 p.m work 4 p.m. - 4:45 p.m. take coworker(s) home. 5 p.m. - 9 p.m. CNA class 9:15 p.m. change into pj's. find s...

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]
