Soooo Sick!!!

So last weekend Dan and I babysat his little 8 month old nephew, who apparently was super sick! We got there and he had snot running down his face, he was crying, he had pink eye nasties, he had a rash on his face. He was just not happy. 

The next day Dan's mom had us all take some preventative medicine things and I thought I was good to go! Little did I know, that child packed a whopper of a cold!!!! Monday night I get off the phone with dan and the back of my throat starts to hurt... Tuesday morning I wake up just feeling awful with chills and aches and a sore throat but some how I made it through all 8 hours of class. Wed I get up, no more chills or aches, sore throat still there a little and feeling a bit heady but basically better than the day before. Thursday I get up and go to my internship feeling a bit under the weather, my sinuses are completely plugged but it's not painful but by that night I wanted to tear my head off! Friday I get up and leave a message for my supervisor that I'm going to be late but I still trudge all the way to the Bronx (40 min with 15 min of walking (which is a lot in the rain when you're sick)). I come home early and feel a little better and go to the doctor who tells me I just have to ride it out. I take a nap... AAAHHH!!! My ears are plugged and hurting, I'm coughing, I have major sniffles. I'm dying!!! The whole weekend I felt awful. I went and stayed at Dan's cause I hate being alone when I'm sick and his mom is a nurse so she knew just what to do : ) 

Sorry for the very long and boring story, but that was my exciting adventure this weekend!

Um Maddie... I think we are twins! Yes, I think we were separated at birth. My week last week was exactly the same! My cold is still holding on strong and I gave it to Harrison (poor guy). Yeah, its no fun being sick especially when you have to go to school and work and be involved in your other life plans. Well good luck getting rid of Montezuma's Revenge!
