I don't know what it is about this winter that has packed such a wallop on my immune system. I'm home sick AGAIN! This is the third time in, what, two months? I've had to use my precious paid time off yesterday and today, so I'll probably have zip left for the vacation next week. It's just a really sore throat, a little coughing, achy eyes and head, stuff like that, but it's just enough that I would probably get much worse if I went to work, and I'm sorry, we are going to California on Friday, so I am getting better for it.
Let me tell you, being sick when you're 35 weeks pregnant is ridiculous; you drink a ton of water to try to flush it out of your system, but then you're peeing so often (I'm talking about once you stand up from the toilet and flush, you already had gravity or something working against you and you have to go AGAIN) that you can't get any sleep. Really, I think I had a round of about five of those (the having to pee again as soon as you stand up, or better yet, get your hands washed) this morning at around 5:30.
Well, not much else going on, just looking forward to Friday. I can report that the Trader Joe's pumpkin bread mix I had my mom send me was waaaay better than the...Betty Crocker or something one I got at Albertson's. I'm planning on making my mom's amazing recipe for fudge tonight, for the Christmas potluck on Thursday night. My baby has the hiccups yet again and according to what I've been reading, has reached his birth length, just not weight. That's a crazy idea, since people keep telling me how tiny I am.
Wondering if I should throw some baby clothes in the wash, since I'm home to do it, or just take it really, really easy, because I'm seriously tired of being sick.
