You Win
You know, I feel like this happens more than I'd like to admit. Just when I think I'm feeling back to normal, BAM, I'm sick again.
Yup, I spoke too soon.
I woke up this morning sounding like a raspy frog and feeling like balloon was taking over my head. Not exactly how you want to feel at 6 am as you do yoga, walk the dog and try to get ready for work.
I debated staying home all day, but I had a 10:30 am meeting I didn't want to miss so in I went at 8 and then back I came around 12:30.
I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW I've said this way too often, but sometimes the body is just screaming at you to slow down and when you don't it does it for you.
It's too bad that it's not more socially acceptable to take wellness or mental health days. Just saying...
On a typical week, it's not like I'm doing a million things besides work, exercise and preparing meals. We don't go out very often and I don't have a ton of evening events to attend.
But our weekends, I pack them to the brim. Especially during the precious eight or so weeks of summer we get here in Oregon. I just can't seem to find enough moments to get outside and do something "summery." Oh and that whole marathon training thing...
Alas, here I am, sitting on my couch with a throbbing head looking outside at the sun bleached yard and all I want to do is go running. And of course, that's the last thing my body wants to do. So there, body, you win...today.
