I am sick with the flu. Right now I am feeling better, but I took off work today in order to try and beat this thing a little faster.
One really odd thing that I noticed today was that my body refused to just lay in the bed and relax. It had to get up and at least be up. I have not done anything major since getting out of bed, which, I think, has helped me start to feel a little better. I am going back to work tomorrow. It is my short day and easier to handle than a full day.
This was the last "free" day I have. It is going to take me six months of not missing any days in order to get this "event" taken off of my record.
Some times work sucks.
Still, I am thankful I am resting today and still have my little job. It is important to me to keep it and also important to keep it.
I am a Kentucky mountain girl far from home, perhaps far from the girl years. Still, my heart longs to return to the top of Low Gap mountain and peer off into the distance; to see the hills rolling and tumbling out before me, and the wind ruffling the trees' leaves, causing them to ripple like waves in some immense pond.
