I'm Sick :o(

Ugh. It has finally happened. I haven't been sick in a really long time. Aside from that stomach bug I had last July, I'd say it's been over a year. Brian is finally getting over being sick for 2 weeks.

On Sunday, I woke up with a sore/itchy throat. I took Monday off of work (planned vacation), in celebration of our anniversary. I still had the sore throat, loaded up on Benedryl, and took a nap. When I got up from my nap, the sore throat was gone, but I had some sinus congestion. Aside from having plugged ears, I felt better on Tuesday and went to work.

Yesterday morning, I woke up feeling worse than Tuesday with a sore throat and headache. I decided to stay home since I really wanted to get over this (whatever it is) before our Ihilani weekend! I spent much of the day sleeping. By the time I went to bed, my nose was running and I had a bad headache.

I woke up this morning not feeling much better than I did yesterday. Ugh. My ears are plugged, my nose is stuffy, I have a headache, and I'm feeling a little light-headed/dizzy. I'm thinking I feel dizzy because I basically slept all day yesterday and now I'm up and about. At least my nose has stopped dripping. :P

I feel like going home and resting some more, but, sadly, I don't have a whole lot of sick leave. I'm pretty much right at my lowest comfortable level of sick leave since I took yesterday off. I could burn some annual leave, but, again, I want to keep that at a certain level. *sigh* We'll see how the rest of the morning goes. I think I'm stressing myself out a little since I really don't want to be sick this weekend while we're at the Ihilani. :(
