Oops. My Holidailies commitment became "Holiweekly"! I got SO sick after my husband came home from the hospital last Tuesday. It started as a cold on Monday night, which turned into a sinus infection by Thursday, which then turned into pink eye (in both eyes!) over the weekend. I had to call out sick to work today (Monday)….and it's the night of the big, fancy Holiday party -- so I'm missing that as well. So sad! But what could I do? I wasn't going to attend a hugging-and-hand-shaking event where there's tons of kids underfoot while I have contagious, runny, red eyes.
Ironically, if I wasn't pregnant….I would have just tossed back a shot of Nyquil on Monday night and been done with it. I don't normally get sick, so I'm pretty ticked that I wound up way sicker than necessary because I was being a good little mamma and eschewing cold medicine!
(I have pregnancy-approved antibiotic eyedrops now, so if you are reading this and have regular contact with me, don't worry - I'm no longer a walking contagion!)
Anyway -- I had to stay home from work today to obtain the eye drops, get un-contagious and get some much needed rest. I also had the time to give my site a little upgrade. You'll see a subscription prompt now in the right margin. Ta da! If you'd like to have my blog updates sent directly to your inbox - that can happen now!
All this is brought to you through the prompting of Barbara, who reached out to me last week and asked for an easier way to stay in today than through the Holidailies site. Thank you, new-friend-Barbara, for helping me get my act together.
I'm on the upswing now, health-wise, and I'm ready to finish out the month….(finish strong! woo!)…maybe I'll look for a blog community for 2014 as well. I'd like to find something inspiring to me; along the lines of simplicity, philosophy, artistic pursuits. If anyone knows of a blog ring that focuses on those interests, please let me know!
