mythicalgirlJust days before I leave for Italy and I have a sinus infection. I was pretty sure something was going on yesterday while I was working from home. I woke up with the sinus pressure and headache, all on the left side of my head, per usual, and I was hoping it was just a reaction to the fact that it was raining for the first time in over a month. No such luck. The headache was followed by the sore throat was followed by the stuffed up ears was followed by waking up this morning with a head full of snot. Ugh. A nine hour flight at 35000 feet with a sinus infection is pretty much the ninth circle of hell so I took my sick butt down to Immediate Care earlier today. Evidently everyone else in Indianapolis also has a sinus infection as the place was packed. Right now I'm feeling okay - not great but I can function. And I have drugs so I'm good.
My practice packing is done and the new suitcase will do just fine. I painted it to make it easier to recognize amongst all the other black 25'' wheeled jobbies. No pictures of it yet but I'll post some after Mom & Dad see it. My shopping is finished as well (I think) and my passport is in my travel purse so I can stop obsessing about leaving it behind. I should be doing another couple hours of work today but I'm thinking about curling up on the couch instead. I may end up skipping the gym this week in order to get my work done before I leave. Plus the fact that I can't breathe to work out, that might be a reason to skip too.
And now I need to take some OTC sinus meds and maybe take a short nap. I'll be way busy the next few days and I don't know what kind of internet access I'll have in Italy so blogging may be sparse to non-existent for the next couple of weeks. Play nice!
