Today is Wednesday. I haven’t left the house except to run an errand here and there since Friday. Every morning I have been feeling tired and nauseous. I usually start feeling better in the late afternoon. Thankfully, Ann Marie has been here the past few days to help me get some stuff done.

The days that I feel nauseous it makes it really hard to do stuff around the house. Once I get up and start moving around I feel sick. The key seems to be to keeping horizontal with an ice pack on my head. It sucks. I hate not being able to go outside and go for a run or hike up Camelback Mountain. I am going to try to go to the Village over the next couple of days to sit on the recumbant bike. I have got to get some sort of exercise. I feel so lackadaisical and I’m not sure what to do to get out of this rut! I think a vacation would definitely help.

I can’t wait for my sister to get down here. Maybe that will help. I think part of it is loneliness, depression, and just being sick. The other part is just being lazy. I used to be on the go all of the time. You would never catch me at home. Now I’ve become such a homebody. I do have to say though I have gotten tons of stuff done around the house. It sucks not having a guy around to help me fix things. There are so many little things that I have had to call to get serviced. Money just starts bleeding out of me. $100 here, $200 there. It never stops.
