Down, but not out.

I woke up early today to go to the gym but after putting my contacts in I knew it wasn't going to happen. I felt like what I like to call poo. So I decided to go back to bed in hopes that I'd wake up feeling better. It was difficult to go back to sleep but I managed to doze off. When I woke up about an hour later I didn't feel much better. I chalked it up to some medicine I had taken the night before and went ahead and got ready. Today was a special day. It was the day I started watching my niece on a weekly basis. So I ran to the grocery store to pick some stuff up and went on my way to my sisters. I didn't feel much better when I got there but made some tea to sip on. Jane left and Liv woke up about five minutes later. When I went to get her she had the biggest smile on her face. My heart melted and I started feeling a little better. That was until I started making her oatmeal. Something about the smell got me and I had to put her on her little floor blanket and take a trip to the bathroom. Remember how I said I loathe throwing up? Well, you can guess what happened. So I called my awesome dad to come watch her for me so I could go home and rest. I'm feeling much better although I'm still not 100% better. My thermometer read around 106 three separate times so I'm pretty sure it's time to retire that one. I may not feel great, but my temperature is definitely not that high! So now I'm sipping on Pepsi and hoping it settles my stomach. I realize soda is definitely not clean, but my very intelligent childhood doctor said to drink Pepsi when you're sick. Who would I be to not follow doctor's orders?! Other than my Pepsi, I've had about five sips of tea. I so wish I had some of my grandma's homemade chicken noodle soup to eat later this evening but I don't feel like making it! So we'll see. I obviously didn't do my Jillian Michaels workouts either. And yes, workouts...plural. We decided to add the Six Week Six-Pack to the plan. Yes, we are psycho. While I totally would have done it had the situation been different, I can't say I'm too sad. I'm sure it will be absolutely killer! Well, the clean eating, and eating in general, has been put on hold until I'm back to normal. Although I hate being sick and don't feel the greatest, I'm going to enjoy my day the best I can. Nothing a little heat pack, some rest, and sips of soda won't fix! Have a great day!
