That’s how I feel anyway. I’m sick again (or still) and stayed home from work. My mother (got to love her) insisted I call the doctor and schedule an appointment. Being the dutiful young lady I am, I called and made an appointment.
It was a disappointing experience overall. I really hoped to have someone with a sympathetic ear listen to all my complaints and try to get a full picture of how I was feeling and what might be causing it…not just that it’s a viral infection or whatever, but perhaps I’m not getting enough sleep, or I’m under too much stress, or I am not eating properly. I wanted someone to help me examine my situation…to look at the big picture. Instead, it went more like this:

Thanks for all of your get-well wishes. I’m feeling much better after the restful weekend I had. I’m still rundown feeling and think I will consult a doctor about it. I’m also considering taking a multi-vitamin–something with an iron supplement. It would probably help a great deal if I forced myself to get at least eight hours of sleep per night too! But, geeze, it seems like such a waste of time. There are so many other things I’d rather be doing (and if I’m not doing them, I usually have trouble falling asleep because I’m thinking of doing them.)
Things I need to do:
(1) Get on the ball and start taking photos for next month’s edition of Image Cafe. I’ve been a real slacker in this department this month. Partly, it’s because I’m feeling frustrated with my camera. It doesn’t seem to be working exactly right–or maybe it’s just me. LOL! I’m also disappointed that I still haven’t received the photography book I ordered from Amazon. It’s been back-ordered. I was counting on it to inspire me 
(2) Catch up on my e-mail. I owe lots of people e-mail and feel bad for not answering. I’ve been extremely delinquent in this department. So, if I owe you one, please accept my apologies. I’ll get back to you…eventually!
(3) Finish reading the Joy Book club book. While I LOVE Margaret Atwood’s novels, I’m having trouble getting into the Blind Assassin. It’s good, but has a complicated structure, which I haven’t figured out yet. I think I need more energy than I’ve had this month to tackle a challenging book like this one.
(4) Allow Sammy to play outside more often. I’ve been really nervous about letting him run loose outside, but finally forced myself to stop being such a ninny and let him do so (with supervision, of course) and he had a blast! It’s good for me to get out and get some fresh air too.

I stayed home from work today. I feel guilty about doing so, since I’m no more sick than I have been for the past two weeks. The thing is, I’m sick of being sick. I’m sick of being without any energy. I was hoping that sleeping for a good long while, without worrying about Robert, Sammy or Will would make me feel better. I think I do feel a tad bit more energized, but still have this stupid headache, sore throat, cough and general malaise. Will I ever feel healthy again? Or am I doomed to feeling rundown for all eternity? *sigh* It certainly feels that way sometimes.
