Cold duration

Let's see, Friday afternoon while I'm out and about, shopping for a few things, I get hit with a really bad sore throat that just wasn't going away no matter what I did, and it eventually hurt so bad, I couldn't even swallow anything and was afraid to even talk. So Friday night I end up buying both dayquil and nyquil along with some orange juice at Walmart. On Saturday my throat isn't hurting nearly as much, but I started losing my voice. On Sunday, my voice came back and my sore throat went away but had a fever of 101.6, and was also having body aches and pains so I ended up spending the whole day sleeping it off, and luckily my fever broke. And then today, it feels like my cold felt like it picked up where it left off, with my sore throat coming back again and me losing my voice again. I did have a sore throat until tonight. All all through my ordeal I've just been making sure I get lots of sleep, take Dayquil, cough drops, drinking orange juice, as well as consuming other sources of vitamin C. Apart from my still having a sore throat and losing my voice, I am feeling much better. Now that my sore throat is almost all gone, I can feel the nasal congestion starting to set it. I had to take a day off from work, today. Depending on what I have left for money,  I may have to buy some more orange juice, and possibly buy some more grapefruits. At least the most painful part of having a cold is over.

Good stuff that's happened so far as of 1/5/2017

So what's happened so far, this year: 1. At the start of the year, got $500.00 to deposit into my account so that I have more money for the month to help me just get by. 2. 3 days later I got my new debit card in the mail 3. Might be getting a new job in Waukesha, real soon. (hope this one works out a lot better than my last one) 4. Days are getting longer and lighter out after 5pm. (of course you don't really notice it more until after the first 7 to 9 days of the month) 5. After this week and last week of temperatures being below 20 degrees outside, we're finally going to have a bit of a "January thaw out". Basically what's going to happen is after this week, temperatures are going to get back into the 20's and 30's. I can live with winter weather being in the 20's and 30's, but anything under 20 is too cold! 6. We've been invited to Minnesota to see some relatives. (Sure hope Jason can go, and that we can find someone to take car...

it's been a while

Ok, all I have to say, is that it's been a while since I've posted anything on here. LOL! I've just been busy with just trying to enjoy the summer as much as I could. I can't believe it's over now. I think it went by too fast, if you ask me. And one of my all time favorite holidays is coming up. That's right. Halloween. This last weekend, Jeremae and her boyfriend, Tim, finally got married, so Jason and I went up to spend some quality time with her. I really honestly wish she and Tim were living closer than they do. We could have so much fun doing so many fun things together. I mean, I'm just chalked full of ideas on what kind of things we could maybe do together. One idea is going to a club or bar somewhere in Milwaukee or something like that and dancing the night away, although we're now either in our late 20's and early 30's.  Especially when there's this one song I've been dancing to, called "Wobble Baby". Damn that song is ...

stuff

Well, tonight I'm hopefully going to be heading to my storage unit/Motel room/apartment that I'm suppose to be living in. As far as I'm concerned, it's just Friday and Saturday Night home away from home. I sure wish that when I'm over there I could have my computer and internet set up. Maybe that way I'd say there, more. But with my computer being at parent's house as well as the internet and cable access, and with the fact I have no Hot water in my apartment, it's the only thing that keeps me coming back to their house. What I've been wanting to do is go over the lyrics to Sarah Mclachlan's song, "Possession", and say what sounds kinda creepy, like not just something a stalker would say but someone who's abusive might also say, and just pick certain parts of the song apart to see if maybe that's what she means when she says certain parts in the song, like the chorus part, for example that goes, "And I would be the one to h...
