Leaning on others

So Tuesday was a REALLY rough day.  By the middle of the day I was running a 102 degree fever and was pretty delusional.  Apparently I was speaking nonsense most of the day.  Yesterday was a little better, only a 100 degree fever- but I went to work anyways.  My trainee did the presentation 100% on his own and so I gave him the sale.  It wasn't a huge sale, but at least he will get a small paycheck to help with some bills.

It turns out I wasn't the only one dealing with an overabundance of irrational emotional depression.  My boss was too.  He told me yesterday and it made me feel a little bit better that I was not the only person going through it. 

Today is a much better day.  I am taking antibiotics, drinking lots of water, and getting plenty of sleep to help myself heal faster.  I am only running a low grade fever today so that is a plus. My eyes are still hot and I feel crappy, but such are the joys of the flu.  Hopefully I can finish getting over this bug this weekend. It will require plenty of sleep, healthy food, and listening to what my body needs.

Our biggest support comes from those around us.   This week I had to do a lot of leaning on others to help while I was sick. I realized that I have to count on myself for a lot of stuff, but that I have people who I can count on to help me when times are harder and that I don't have to go it alone.
