Damn, I HATE being sick!! I felt fine when I woke up Monday morning and then when I got to the hospital ER (clinicals for nursing school), I slowly started feeling shitty. And sure enough I woke up this morning feeling sooo lousy. I have bad cold or possibly the flu. I have body chills, hot flashes, stuffed up head, runny nose, achy pains all over my whole body, a horribly sore throat and the worst headache I've had in a long time. If that isn't bad enough, I had to skip classes today because I couldn't even get out of bed. So I missed a big exam, that when I make it up it'll be a totally different test and 50 times harder. They basically punish you for missing a day of class, yet if I would have showed up they would have been pissed because I would have gotten the whole class sick. I'm damned either way! And on top of that , we can only miss 8 days of class total per year and I've already missed enough due to being a single mother and having to take care of my daughter when she's sick. I can never win. I just pray I get better by the weekend! Luckily I have such a sweet grandma because she came by my apartment today to bring me some milk that I ran out of, some cold/flu medicine and brought Sage a Happy Meal since I couldn't even get up to feed my own daughter. That's the worst part of it all, not being able to take care of her. But she basically hung out in my room all day today watching cartoons and brought a ton of her toys in there, so she could (as she said, take care of me). She is such a sweet child, but very tempermental and hyper. I hope I wake up feeling decent enough tomorrow so I can go in and makeup my test and get the notes I missed from classes today. Well, I'm about to go back upstairs and try to go back to sleep because I feel like complete shit! Goodnight all!
