Ugh

What a miserable day. I am still feeling pretty bad, even though Ive been to work the last couple of days. My nose is bright red from a consant drip that has lasted all day. The sore throat is a little better, but ugh.

Tomorrow isnt going to help as I have plans almost all day. Plus I need to clean tonight since they are showing my apartment at 10am.

I really hope I survive this weekend.

Tooting My Horn

My whistle came today. woot!

Have to try and start learning tonight, hopefully it will be a better night than last night.

LIST OF THINGS TO DO

  • Practice the tin whistle

  • All Good

    Except for a stuffy nose, all is good. I think my trouble last night was my “acid reflux” coming back to haunt me. I went and got KFC at around 8pm (ugh) and I had been having problems waking up with reflux the last couple of nights. I think its time to lay off of soda and eating after 6 for a few nights.

    Other than the stuffy nose, I feel fine. :)
