Home-sick!

I do not like being sick! The older that I get the more I detested it. I find myself wanting to call home when I don't feel good. You would think at my age that I would suck it up. I wish that feeling of "homesick" would go away when I don't feel good, but it doesn't. I was sick over the weekend and went home from work yesterday and slept all afternoon! I called my professor and told him I would not be attending class, I really don't like being in class, especially the first night!
I went back to bed and finally broke down and called home. It really helped, I don't know what it is about talking to my Momma Kay, but she helps me feel better. I was able to talk to Lexi Lou and here is our conversation:
"You sick" Lexi Lou
"Yeah, I am sick" Me
"You go to the doctor?" Lexi Lou
"No, I am just going to take some medicine and go to bed" Me
"Oh, (long pause) you take medicine and go to bed" Lexi Lou
Not sure what it was about that little voice, but it made me smile. I think maybe that little girl prayed for me because I am doing so much better! It made my home sick, a little better.

This morning I woke up LATE but I woke up feeling so much better. I was still a little tired but I didn't feel so horrible like I did for the past few days. I started taking this allergy pill my boss told me about, and WOW it works! I feel so much better. I was glad to go to work, I did forget however that I had an unofficial weigh-in today! YIKES, I totally forgot. I was excited and impressed with myself. Proud that my hard work and healthy eating was working! I was a little frustrated that I missed a few work-outs for being sick over the weekend. I am doing very well and my team is doing well, also! That is so encouraging! I know we can win, and I WILL BE THE BIGGEST LOSER!
