Men Plan and God Laughs
I don’t know where that quote is originally from, but it’s the title of an episode in either Season 1 or Season 2 of the television show, ER, and the title really resonated with me. Regardless of whether you’re religious or not, the idea behind the saying is that NOTHING ever goes according to plan. I was planning on being so productive this weekend. It was the first weekend I had to myself. The weather was going to be kind of crummy, so I was just going to stay in clean the house and do homework. Well…that “minor cold” that I mentioned in yesterday’s post turned into a miserable whopping head cold. I feel like a bobble head. I cannot breathe. I’ve tried all my little tricks to get the congestion to go away…it’s not working. I guess I’m glad that this didn’t happen when I’m studying for finals or w/e (and I usually only get sick once a semester), but STILL (I know I’m being whiny…but give me a break :-p). I got very little done today–I’m hoping I’ll be on the upswing tomorrow. I’ve been drinking fluids nonstop, I bought a humidifier (we didn’t have one for the new house yet), etc. Please just let me be able to be productive tomorrow.
It makes me think about “my little ones” though that I see (probably the same ones that got me sick haha) in the offices. They must be so miserable, especially the really little ones that can’t blow their nose, can’t be explained what is happening to them, and can’t be given any sort of medicine to help ease their symptoms. I’m 24 and I can barely stand it, let alone infants and toddlers! Hopefully we’ll come up with better treatments in the near future.
I hope for a more positive update tomorrow 
Off to bed early–hopefully I can get some sleep!
~love always~
