Thurs 10 Jan

I'm afraid the cold is making another try at establishing itself. I'm back on Cold-Eze today to once again try to head it off. I've been getting extra sleep the last two nights, but I'm still going to have to fight it. Tried the new Cardio Dance DVD this morning. OMG! I only got through the teaching segments of the first five combinations before I had to throw in the towel. She moves very quickly and the combinations are energetic. Once I learn them, this is going to be a very good workout. I felt well exercised just trying to follow along to learn them. I'm not sure how many combinations there are, but by the fifth one, my head was popping trying to remember it all. Damn! I'm sitting in my office doing Intake and feeling definitely chilled. My office is usually plenty warm and I'm dressed for warmtn, so I suspect it's a chill. I took some Ibuprofen from my desk drawer, but God only knows how old it is. I don't want to take any sick time from work this week because then I won't get time and a half for any response calls for being on call. Today I'm taking part of a coworker's Intake shift as well as my own because she had a conflict, so I'm even eating lunch at my desk, but that should allow me to leave early tomorrow afternoon. Good news, the Ibuprofen was effective. Still don't know the dates, but the chill seems to have passed and I'm not so achy.
