Well, I woke up with high hopes of feeling refreshed and ready to start unpacking and making this place our "home", but all of that was squashed by an overwhelming headache, stuffy nose, and no voice. In other words, I felt like crap! I got up and started to move around to get Claire breakfast and put things away, but I was quickly aware that I needed to head back to bed, which I did for about two hours of solid sleep.
When I woke up, I thought again, that I would feel better and I would be ready to get moving...wrong! I ate something for lunch and meandered around the house trying to be productive again. Some repairmen stopped by to fix the heater in the back room and were using some aerosol spray which added to my headache so off I went again to bed for a few more hours.
I really don't remember the last time I felt so awful. I usually refuse to use the word sick, instead I might say that I am feeling a little under the weather, but this time I wasn't going to deny it, I was sick.
I woke up again and knowing that we needed to go to the store, I sucked it up and headed to Walmart with Dave and Claire. I was really tempted to stay home, but I wanted some say as to the things he was going to buy and I didn't want to miss the first shopping trip with Claire.
When we got back home from shopping, we made dinner (spaghetti, peas, and garlic bread). Then we got Claire to bed and watched Desperate Housewives on Slingbox, while I chatted with Shelly, Nicole, and Marnie on Facebook! After that, I knew that I had overdone it again, so, yep, we went to bed at 9:30, hoping and wishing that I would feel much better in the morning.
