I stayed home from work at the behest of my dr today. I felt like I was swallowing knives this morning. I finally dragged myself out to the store and got sucrets numbing throat drops and I feel a lot better. Still coughing and sneezing but better. Should be better by tomorrow although not 100%. But I must return to work tomorrow, I’m sure I’m about to face disciplinary action due to how many days I’ve taken off in January. I actually care about my job this year. I hope I don’t lose it.

Cold today but not as cold as the Midwest. Y’all the real MVPs! I would never live somewhere where it gets to be -50 degrees out. It was bad enough at 3 degrees this morning. I’m looking forward to next week where it will be in the fifties for the first half of the week. Even though it won’t last I’ll take the break. It will remind me that not all hope is lost lol.

I had to skip seeing RS tonight because of my illness so I do hope I’m feeling better by tomorrow. I miss him. So does my son.
