Three day weekend in bed... no fun

So.. I had this really really great three day weekend planned out.  Saturday at the beach, Sunday going to Glide and spendin some time in San Fran and then going up to Tahoe to ski Monday. I was SO stoked. But... instead I woke up Saturday morning coughing my brains out and having a bit of a hard time breathing... later I found out I had bronchitis. So instead of all the fun I had planned I spent most of the weekend in bed trying with all my might to feel better... ughhhh

I have this problem when I get sick where I have such a hard time not doing the things I want to do. I almost still went skiing until my trusty best friend said "Im really concerned about you going skiing" and of course she was right.  4 hours in the car both ways would have been way too much in itself so I decided I'd stay back.

I know I needed to stay in bed this weekend and take care of myself but I just HATE not being able to do the things I want to do. I hate being forced to stay in bed instead of playing outside and adventuring and exercising and just being a normal human being. And this cough has been fighting me for over a month now and frankly Im really sick of it.

But. Im really hoping it will go away REALLY soon. And instead of being frusterated about all the things I didnt get to do (or more just a way to hide that frusteration) I need to think about the good things I did do like Search Small Group Dinner at Jasmine, Friday Night Lights, Sunset at the Beach, some quality time with my besties who stayed by my side through all of the coughing and sleeping and utter boringness that I was this weekend, some homework (i mean not really but a little) and.. thats really all. But a resting weekend is good. And there are more weekends for loads of fun and adventures and this body of mine really needs to get better so I can play and run and jump and be outside and do all the things I should be doing sooner than later!

Hope you all had a wonderful and healthy three day weekend :)

  1. Thank goodness for that "trusty best friend" you listened to. All of us feel frustrated when we can't "play". Lots of snow yesterday! It's a very white Leadville.
