Wondering where I went?

OK-so I've been sick...that's why you haven't heard from me. Sniff, sniff... If you're my friend on facebook, you probably know all this - but if you're not- shame on ya!
Down in Texas, my head started draining (yuck) & obviously it went to my stomach which made me nauseous (double yuck). The plane ride home was NOT FUN as when we landed I thought I was gonna vomit. I just figured I was hungry & all that crap on my stomach wasn't helping.
I got home Sunday afternoon & took a long winters nap. I got up, blogged/bragged about my bracelet & then the sickness got worse.
I went to work Monday with a major headache & still some nausea. I even had mom make me a grilled cheese for lunch because I felt so bad. Afer lunch, my head was pounding & I started sipping on Sprite to help with the nausea. However, the more sick I felt, the more I gulped that Sprite. Then, suddenly, it hit me. I've gotta vomit. OMG! I'm at my desk!!! So I ran up front to tell my boss I had to go home, I was sick! I drove home with my hand over my mouth. (Like THAT was gonna help?!)
I ran in the house, & just laid on the bed because the room was spinning. I feel asleep for 3 hours. I had texted B-rad to bring me some Sprite on his way home. However, he didn't get home until 9:00! I sipped a couple glasses of Sprite & went to bed.
Tuesday I got up & got ready for work. I had a splitting headache above my eye & I just felt funny. My ears ached inside & I still felt dizzy. I'm a B-I-G baby when I'm sick so I decided to call the doctor. They could see me at 10:45 so I told my boss I might not be back. He told me, "Don't worry about coming back. It's fine." Green light for me to go home & rest! Yay!
The doctor says I have a sinus infection & gave me an antibiotic & I had to sign my life away for some Mucinex D as well. It's a-maz-ing how much better I felt after 1 dose of antibiotic. I got home around noon & went to bed. I woke up & it was 4:00!
I finally felt well enough to do a load of laundry last night & even made supper. I haven't unpacked from my trip yet. Baby steps... I figure it's not going anywhere - I can do it later.
I will work on sharing my stories from Texas as soon as I can. I know you're all on pins & needles!
