Icky, icky sinus

Three boxes of kleenex and a week later, I'm still sick. But at least my face doesn't hurt as much. My teeth, my jaw, my cheek, my eye, my head...all on the left side of my face. This is such an icky infection. Ewwwww. Still green with it. Yucky. I know, TMI. But I'm just sayin' - I wish it would clear up, literally! I want to breathe again.

Doing salt rinses and echinacea, vitamin C and ginger tea. And drinking broth. And taking Nyquil at night to get some sort of rest.

But today at 1:30 I have to go take a test for a census job. It's only 20 hours a week, and I need to be doing something to make some $$. At least with this job, I would be able to set my own hours. Meme doesn't need CONSTANT care, just four times a day, seven days a week, I have to able to tend to her - her meals, her meds, her insulin, her bath, her laundry, and getting fresh ice water twice a day. It's not the work itself that makes it difficult, it's how it's spread out over the course of a day and leaves me with little blocks of time in between that are difficult to fill with anything lucrative. I got 100% on the online pre-test, so I'm hoping I'll do alright with the actual test through the fog of this infection.


I am currently Gross
I am listening to my nasal congestion - ewwwww
