Sick!

It was bound to happen sooner or later...  I haven't been sick in so long and even adopting good habits doesn't make us completely immune.  I feel the start of a cold, the scratchy throat and dry cough; it might have been a long time, but I always recognize it.  Started the week under a lot of down slides though; my grandma's death, some of my fish dying, then a bungled shopping trip and a huge tank cleaning today.  My diet has been higher calorie than usual but stress and sickness together can do that.  Restarted scheduled workouts (Accelerator, Warrior, Yoga).  I intend to workout sick unless it becomes impossible.  I have CVX coming up tomorrow.  If anything, being sick is never an excuse not to workout or attempt to get a diet back on track.  Sliding into bad habits can easily prolong a sickness.  As long as I can do it, I will.  Barring being unable to breath, extreme muscle fatigue/pain, etc,, it will be done.

So need to sleep now.  Sometimes being sick is the only time I really catch up on sleep.  I wouldn't mind if my appetite goes bye bye too.  As much as it sucks, this is probably the best time for it.  Better now than once the boys are back in school and I have to walk them.  Here's to accelerated symptoms that go away by January 3!  I don't give a single fuck about New Year's anyway.  Never has a new year ever set the tone for the rest of it.  It's a day and every day is a chance to start over.
