Sometimes in my life it seems that I take 2 steps forward and 5 steps back. So I’ve had my pity party and now I’m back to pushing forward and knowing that my trials and tribulations are only adding to my strength, courage and wisdom that we gain in this thing called life.
When you have a weekend to get a lot done at home and on Saturday you have sinus issues…it really sucks! lol I mean literally I have dealt with an already rough and stressful week. I planned to get so much done yesterday and as I was entering Food Lion, I started getting this ridiculous sinus pressure at the top of my right nostril. And then comes the drip…the awful drip that no amount of tissue will stop. The drip that I took 3–count em, 3 doses of daytime 24 hour medicine that did nothing but put me to sleep. No I didn’t take them back to back, I spaced them out by several hours as I prayed for some sense of relief. Only to then have to be bent over in pain with stomach cramps that came out of the blue.
I’m like really? Story of my life…since last weekend I fell and passed out in the kitchen. Hitting my head on the counter and being in pain thru Wednesday. This weekend with the non-stop drip like my nose is a leaky faucet. And not to mention that the majority of yesterday, we had no internet on our pc. Why? who knows? It’s sure not my internet provider. After sitting on hold forever, with a stuffy nose, leaky nose, sinus pressure and my overall irritation…I get a response that it may be my ethernet cord. Bc everything shows working. Duh, I know everything shows working. I’m not the kind of person who calls a company the moment something happens. Only if I can’t figure it out on my own will I go thru the bureaucracy that is customer service. So finally we’re back online after doing a system restore.
So today, I’m trying to get everything done that was on both today’s and yesterday’s to – do list. Probably would have helped if I could really get outta bed this morning before 9am. DH had to work OT today {which I love btw} so I got up early to brew his coffee and went back to bed assuming I would wake up shortly after by the noise of the kids. Woke up to find that as last week…no Sunday paper delivered. So yeah someone will be getting a phone call from me tomorrow. Not a fan. And I haven’t left the house, don’t intend to now that it’s a monsoon going on outside. So no coupons for me today unless I print them.
Anyway, here I am today, still sniffling {the medicine did nothing but put me in a fog} and posting on my online yard sale. Trying to keep my head in a positive place and not allow the negative thoughts creep in. I feel like I’m constantly starting over from the beginning. And that’s not a great feeling. But no matter how many times I have to start over…I know I’m going to reach and achieve my goals. There’s no stopping me.
SN: I was so out of it I forgot to actually post this yesterday! lol
