Hey guys, remember when I used to blog regularly? And then just totally stopped? What was up with that?
Wellllllllll, what had happened was.....
Last year around this time, I came down with some sort of cold/flu/sinus thing. Not a big deal. I would work during the day and get through it (with DayQuil and gross cough drops.....yuck, I can almost taste them now) but by the time I would get home I felt completely DRAINED. So I would go home and lay down every day, trying to rest and heal between work days. This lasted a few weeks.
Well apparently, laying down to rest every night after work was a bad idea, because all of those cold/sinusy fluids (sorry, gross) got all backed up in my lungs. By the time I finally realized I was VERY SICK and needed to go to the doctor (Halloween Day), they said I wasn't breathing well because I had pneumonia in both of my lungs. Long story short, I stayed in the hospital for almost a week (SUCH a long story about why it took so long), and it was still awhile after that before I felt like a human again.
By the time I felt better, I was like, "What can I even blog about? I haven't done anything/gone anywhere/ thought about anything but trying to breathe in like a month".
I mean, sure, I could've given you a review of hospital food, but who wants that? Side note: I learned that the way around eating actual "hospital food" is to order chicken strips for every meal, They come in frozen obviously, so there's nothing hospital-y about them. And I've never been too good for frozen chicken strips, know what I mean? Basically, chicken strips nursed me back to health.
ALL THIS TO SAY, if it's cool with you, I'd still like to blog every now and then. And I'd love to never have pneumonia again. And here's a free Mindy Kaling paper doll/coloring page, because you've earned it by reading this lengthy post.
