14 steps to getting healthy in a day... ha. admiring people i dislike. lace cardigans.

Thursday and Friday at school were TORTURE. i usually don't get sick, but i got hit with something pretty awful. it's like a cough + horribly stuffy/runny nose + chills + fever + croup.

i only have the weekend to recover, since i can't really take a day off this week (mostly because of PT conferences). this is what i've done: mucinex. chest congestion relief. vapor rub. sauna. inhaler. 2 jacuzzis + candles + magnesium salts. 12 hours of sleep + 2 hour nap. vitamin c. neti pot. tons of water. zinc. tea with honey and lemon. homemade soup. breathing steam. sitting by a vaporizer.

i literally don't think there is anything else i can do to get better haha. but i think it's working... (:

i just spent some time today buying a few things from Target, mostly for spring break. i found some lace cardigans i have been wanting forever.

i got a new phone.

now, i need to grade and get plans set for next week. i feel like watching a movie and relaxing more.



Question: pick a person (or type of person) that you dislike. what do you admire about him/her?


when i first saw this prompt when Mike and i were collecting/brainstorming for prompts, it really made me think. i get along with most people. there are a few people who rub me the wrong way... and lately, i'll tell you.

i'm kind of just picking "type" of person who rubs me the wrong way in order to answer this prompt. usually they are kind of similar... so this isn't about one person in particular.

however, i admire her (or his, but i'll stick with "her" throughout):

-ability to speak her mind and not care what others think
-extreme loyalty to close friends
-confrontation abilities?
-eagerness to speak her mind
-confidence in self and points of view. i don't mean for that to sound negative. i can't think of how to word it. self-assured-ness? ha.

hm. this is hard.
