Alright. I really don’t like to complain (sort of), but I’ve been sick since a couple days before Christmas. It began as a cold, started to go away, came back as something much worse, almost went away again, and now is hanging around just enough to annoy me.
Most mornings I feel almost normal, but by the afternoons my ears are plugged up, my head is foggy, and I don’t seem to have much sense of taste. Is that bad?
Anyway, this lingering fog is making me feel even more behind than I normally do. There are a few things that I really NEED to get done, but I just can’t seem to find the time and energy in the same instant. Those tasks are like heavy weights on my shoulders. They call to me when I’m trying to rest and condemn me if I dare to relax. They make me feel stressed and tired. They rob me of the peace I crave.
These overdue tasks must be done. This week. No excuses.
I’m ready to attack. I may need to get up early or work late. I might have to order take-out for dinner or let the regular housecleaning duties slide. Whatever I need to do, it’s time to get back to that ordinary month I was so excited about.
Sick or not, today is the day!
