Hanging in there..........

Well Friday night I had a 103 degree fever and felt awful. I was chilling for hours and just could not get warm. Advil didn't bring the fever down so I took a Tylenol after about 3 hours of no results. Not too much of a change so I decided to drag my freezing butt into bed. After about 2 hours of sleep, the sweats came. UGH! I proceeded to sweat (break my fever) for the rest of the night. It was awful. I was literally soaked. The upside of that though was I wasn't freezing anymore so I would much rather be sweating than freezing. :-)

I laid low most of the weekend since I was concerned the fever would come back. I was feeling good by Monday. The cyst issue is still there but it's just lurking in the back ground now, which is nice. I hate the sharp, stabbing pain with the bloating that the cyst(s) bring. I much prefer the dull "I'm still here" ache it presents as its going away (post rupture).

However, today brings a sore throat that I have caught from my oldest DD. Unfortunately she has spread her germs (LOL) to everyone. All the girls aren't feeling well. The oldest is feeling better as the others are feeling cruddy. My youngest DD is just well enough to go to school but feels crummy. My middle daughter is just slightly ill, like me, with a sore throat.

UGH! I'm ready for a healthy house again---especially with myself. I'm tired of feeling ill. I WANT TO GO TO THE GYM!! Well part of the process of getting better is being crabby.....so I guess I'm almost well! LOL!!! I think I actually do feel well enough to hit the gym tonight. I'll take it slow and maybe only do 30 minutes. I need to get on the scale too as I haven't weighed myself in over a week.

Other than that, things are going a-ok here. I'm eating well. That's always a good thing.

I'll be sure to write more later this week. I will also post my weight & measurements as soon as I have them.
Hugs from AZ,
Shannon
