Not “living well”

Once a year I go completely off the grid.  Not by choice.  It’s as though my body says “hey, let’s take a break, and not function.” that’s me today.  I felt a cold coming on and thought I could knock it out with sudafed and advil.  However that did not work.  One day later and my body is aching, my chest feels like an elephant is sitting on it and my nose, well, we just won’t discuss what is coming out of it.

While most of my posts I hope are honest, this one is the most honest. I’m sick.  I mean really sick. And I look the part.  I don’t think I’ve showered in two days,  but can’t event tell you what day it is.  I do know I’m supposed to work out today so its either Tuesday or Thursday.  Let’s go with Thursday.

Going off the grid was not my choice.  I detest staying home and not working, or not doing anything.  Hence, why I picked up the old laptop and decided to post. I did manage to pick up the girl at school, but that took effort. I also switched on the old magic box and decided on endless episodes of “Flip or Flop”. HGTV is my go to.  I call it “Have to Go to Television”.  Especially on days like today when I’m not living well, it makes me disappear in all the madness of “demo day”, “what else could go wrong”, and of course the old “it still hasn’t sold and now we’re $315,000 in debt. Why does that make me feel so much better?

Do you ever have one of those days when you can’t even function?  What do you do to whittle away your time?
