The Ick

The Ick has invaded our home in the form of head/sinus colds.  We’re dealing with congestion, itchy eyes & noses, cough, headache, sinus pressure, etc.  It started off with Mia and then hit me on Saturday.  By Sunday, I was couch-bound for the most part and ended up staying home from work yesterday and today.  Seth woke up this morning feeling crummy too and Mia was complaining of an earache, so the three of us headed to Priority Care.  While Seth didn’t need to be seen as his is just a cold at this point, Mia and I needed antibiotics.  It was a sinus infection (as usual) for me and fluid in the ears for both of us.  Brian is also sick but not as bad. 

 

Due to the Ick, there has been no exercise on my part the past few days.  My diet has not been good either.  Look at what arrived late last week. 

 

 

Girl Scout cookies!  Of course since our own daughter was selling them, we had to buy a few boxes for ourselves.  While I haven’t completely gorged on cookies the past few days, I have had more than I should have. 

 

I’m hoping that these antibiotics kick in quick.  I need to get back to work and get back into my exercise routine.  Plus, I need to start feeling better so I quit using food for comfort.
