So last week, I had been fighting off something as each of my kids were being diagnosed with ear infections. Then last Thursday, I really felt off and by Friday could tell that it was going to get worse. It was so bad that I cancelled my massage. Hubby knew then I was really sick.
After a good night sleep I felt better, but not 100%. So by Sunday, I decided it was time to go to urgent care to see if it was viral or had turned bacterial. I'm now on antibiotics. I wish I could say I felt like writing or being spiritual -- but when I'm that sick, I usually want to do something to take my mind off of it. That and sleep - which I did a lot of over the weekend.
My sinuses are "better", I woke up without a fever, but I can still tell I'm not quite there yet. After my hour commute, I am ready to go back to bed. But I'll soldier it through.
So forgive me that my life has overtaken me writing and being the spiritual person I am. It's very rare I take time for myself and so I think from time to time my body just gives out so I will.
But it's a nice lesson for all of us.. to make sure we're taking care of ourselves. Making sure we make ourselves #1 instead of last or in the middle. Too often many of us do that. It's not being selfish to give ourselves that mental break once in awhile.
Take time..
