blogging

I've been horrible about blogging this past while. I've been anemic, had bronchitis that wouldn't go away, an ear infection that made me not hear and well just felt generally crappy. Sleep continually won over blogging. I'm better now...

Vacation

I'm on vacation right now and it's wonderful! I took that picture on Friday. My friend and I sat on some rocks and just "were". It was amazing. I am soooo relaxed, and I'm finally getting healthy too. It turned out I was quite anemic...

Health Day

So, today I took a "health day" not a "sick" day, but a health day. In other words, I took a day off before I got sick, hopefully to prevent said sickness. Working a job by myself which is supposed to have to people has been wearing...

dreamer takes a sick day

If you've been following this blog for a while, you'll have noticed a trend, for a relatively healthy 22 year old, I'm really not all that healthy. I'd given up posting about my sinuses, but in the past eight weeks, I've been to urgent...

gotta love it when they're out before they're in

So I had my first counseling session with a client today. I felt like we moved waaaaaaaaaay too fast, but this guy was just eager to get things rolling and underway. The thing of it was, he really wanted legal advice more then counseling, and so he wasn't...

antibiotics and yuck

I don't like antibiotics. I think they're a wonderful invention, I totally agree that their lifesaving. I also think they're over prescribed, and generally, they don't make me the world's healthiest person (I tend to get stomach side...

update on me

I've been off most of this week in between my two jobs, so naturally, I didn't bother to use any of my free time to write. So, I'll try and make up for that with an update about how things are going. 1. The Sophie cat seems just fine. I have...

it's almost spring

I can't believe I haven't posted in a week. Things are not going well in dreamerville, and writing just seems like too much, that and I just haven't seemed to find anything I really want to write about, I know I'll feel better if I write...

Strep Throat...again (sigh)

Sorry for the lack of posts since vacation. As I'm sure you can tell by the title of this, I've been sick. I went to the doctor after church yesterday, because for the second time in three months, I've got strep throat. Ick. That chemical...

just a little sleep

It's amazing how much of a difference sleep makes in a persons life. I haven't posted this week because I've been exhausted. I had something every single day this week including a doctors appointment at which I discovered I'm anemic. Joy...

the pressures of sick days

I'm feeling MUCH better today, certainly not 100%, but the antibiotics have really done their job, and it no longer feels like daggers are stabbing me in the throat each time I swallow. Hurray for that! I work tonight, and then I have two days off...

the germs, they is attacking me!

I am a very whiny social worker right now. After a night of a throat so sore I could barely swallow I dragged myself into the walk in clinic after work and discovered I have strep throat. SO not impressed. But, now I have penicillin, and bestest bud came...

when everyone else takes a sick day

Everyone but me called in sick the other night. I got to work only to discover that none of the other scheduled staff were coming in. I was not impressed. I did however know that there was a stomach virus going around, and I was actually sort of expecting...

Client Counting aka the awkwardness of the er.

So, one of the annoying things about hanging out in the emergency room of my nearest hospital happens to be the number of clients I see there. I decided to play the client counting game, but really, I was too tired. I saw at least two that I know quite...

on going chronicles of my life

I am SO sick right now, I can't even begin to describe it. I had to call in sick to work, which I've never done... in my life. It looks really bad too, because I just had the weekend off, and I have tomorrow off, and it was my birthday yesterday...
