Sick

I have to admit that I've been lucky about getting sick this year.   I haven't been sick since around New Years when I had the flu, no it wasn't Covid, I was supposed to see the doctor and was tested and it came back for flu-b.  I assumed it was Covid, but I seem to attract the flu on cruises.   Regardless of past history, getting sick is never fun and while I'm grateful that I don't get sick often, it's still no fun and this is an inopportune time.  Matthew turns thirty this week and Merinda wants to go see him, and as she got sick first we're hoping it's not Covid, and it doesn't seem like it, stuffy nose and light congestion.  I'm pretty sure it's just a cold, but in the covid era everyone jumps to the assumption that it's Covid.   That's what I did in January too, but the seasons are changing and its that time of year.   Family is important, but that's not the focus here and this is also less than ideal for me.  You see I just started two, yes two, challenges to help keep me motivated to workout.   One is a weekly challenge to do three or more thirty minute workouts and the other is a team based distance challenge.

So....   Long story short the alarm went off this morning and I decided to skip the 8am cadence class.   I was feeling ok yesterday and last night but it was a little too much this morning.   I'm definitely feeling less than 100% and have a stuffy nose and cough.  I have backup classes I like to take in case I just miss early ones for work, but feeling .  I just have to figure out how to pull my weight in my team challenge, and get two more thirty minute workouts in this week.   I know, first world problems, but I'm not trying to solve world peace, just stay fit.
