12w3d

Well, I finally made it to work today. I was an hour late... but hey... I got there. I woke up feeling pretty ill, but I was able to breathe through it and eat some breakfast which calmed my stomach enough to make me feel like I could head off to work. I didn't want to take the medicine again because of how tired it makes me, so I packed it in my sack of snacks and figured if it came down to it, I could take it and head home.

I did pretty well throughout most of the morning, but around 11:00 I started feeling pretty ill. I decided to bee line it for some food. Burger King (my sister would be SOO proud!!) was the only thing that sounded good and at this point if I can eat it and it stays down I can get my nutrients from vitamins!!

Once I had eaten I really didn't feel bad so I continued working on setting up our new computers. Around 2:00 I got that wonderful yucky feeling again so I broke into my bag o' snacks. The granola bar lasted me for about 30-45 minutes and at that point I decided I needed to do something different. So, a girl I work with and I walked down to my favorite popcorn place and I got some greasy, salty popcorn. (I can see my sister reaching for the e-mail button now to send me another artery clogging lecture)

Actually the popcorn was great. (Maybe not great for me... but it tasted damn good!!) It was also filling, which is what I was looking for. I was able to stay at work until 5:15 without feeling sick and when I got home I felt so good I called Danette and we went on a walk in her neighborhood from about 6:30 until 8:00.

Of course after all of that walking and feeling great I was beat. I fell into bed at around 9:00, just happy to have made it through the day without seeing the beauty that is the inside of our toilet.
