Have managed to come down with a summer cold. Am all sniffly and congested. Feeling better today. Last night was feeling as though I’d been run over by a truck or something.
*le sigh*
HOWEVER.
This is only the second time that I’ve been sick this year.…
Since people asked, here’s what I do for a lift heavy things (LHT) workout from home, without a gym. It’s all done with bodyweight.
Cut for talk of weight and image and health. Read, or don’t, with your own self-care in mind.

The day job approved all of my travel through the end of the year. This means a lot more traveling in my future, one or two trips per month, probably for the next six months.
My original plan was to go back to writing novels come January.…
Another day without writing I’m afraid.
Woke up this morning around 6:30 AM with a really, really bad migraine, like my head was caught in a spiked vise, pain shooting out from behind my eyes and the base of my skull.…
Today was better. If I sit perfectly still with my arm supported I can actually be out of pain for a while, for the first time in a week. I was able to work a little, for about an hour at a time, then I’d have to go lay down and rest.…
I did something to my shoulder. Ended up with muscle spasms, radiating out from there, down my left arm. Was pretty useless for a couple of days, couldn’t use that hand. I’m currently taking steroids and muscle relaxants. I’ve continued to work on the novel, either doing one-handed typing or gritting my teeth through the pain and doing two.…
I’d been planning on attending Norwescon — was going to be on several panels, do the Broad Universe Rapid Fire Reading — had even rented a hotel room. However, I’ve been feeling iffy all week, and this afternoon it got really bad.…
I’ve come down with a mild cold. I have mild congestion and a really bad sore throat. I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow for other stuff — will have her check to see if it’s streph while I’m there.
One of the things that I discovered tonight — Coconut Bliss frozen dessert.…
I think I’ve come down with a much milder form than most people. Either that, or my body is reacting in its normal fashion — 95% of the time when I do catch something that’s going around, I’m sick half as long as everyone else.…
Still sick. Came down with a cold on Saturday and still haven’t fully recovered. I’m better, no doubt about that. But I’m not 100% yet. I need to get well, though, as this weekend is WFC. The only good thing about this (if there is such an aspect) is that I went and looked through my journals and figured out that though I’ve had problems with hormones, sugar and my thyroid, I haven’t had a cold or something since March.…
