listening to: nothing.
i've been fighting a 102° fever for the past few days. after getting off the phone which had woken me up late thursday morning, i noticed that i didn't feel a 100%. no. a little more like 10%. i had a high fever that even ibuprofen only brought done a degree or two, chills, bodyaches, my left breast was hot and sore and i could barely even lift kyden. i called in sick from work. and almost had to go in still. my manager tried to get my shift covered but there wasn't anyone else who could work. but as i started to get ready, i started having really bad headaches. the kind that make you lose focus and almost blackout. so i called in again. and got to stay home. truthfully, even if i hadn't started having those headaches and had gone in to work, i really don't think i would've been very productive.
jon took off from work early on friday to take me to the doctor's and he diagnosed me with mastitis. i'm feeling a WHOLE lot better today. words can't explain how happy i felt to finally be able to hold and play with kyden. the poor thing was probably thinking the same thing as well. he's spent a lot of the time with me lying down because i was too weak to even hold him up. thankfully he feeds just as well in the reclining position. but of course, i did too much to fast and overexerted myself. well, i really didn't think playing with kyden and emailing my mom would be so taxing but i relapsed this afternoon with another episode of chills and weakness. a quick hour and a half nap made me feel a bit better. at least enough to get back on the computer. i never learn do i?
