I tried to post something in my journal here but it wouldn't show up properly so I put it on a webpage (http://tinkergirlsb.piczo.com/perspective?cr=2&linkvar=000044).  Hopefully that will work.  It'll shouldn't take more then a minute at most to read.  Great little cartoon with a hugely important message. Starting to feel a fair bit better today...aside from feeling like I got a furball stuck in my throat.  Yeah I know...lovely thought, eh.  LOL.  The rash is better.  I showed it to mom yesterday and she thought it did still look like a heat rash.  It did get worse yesterday after a shower and when I went for a walk to the store I was soooooooo itchy and it was spreading a lot...but I was also sweating like crazy.  When I cooled off it felt better....so maybe it is just a heat rash.  I was concerned it was a petechial rash...but now my understanding is a heat rash can be a type of petechial rash.  Just was worried because I know from working in the ER that a petechial rash can be serious business...but also sometimes nothing.  I kept a close eye on it and was checking my temperature pretty much hourly...lol.  Talk about paranoid.  But it is improving and there is absolutely no temperature at all today.  And it was very low, barely qualified as a fever low, the last few days so that's why I didn't rush to the doctor right away.  I'll still be keeping an eye on it...but as long as it is getting better not worse I'm going to try not to worry about it too much.   Going to try to increase the amount of fluids too...I know I got a bit dehydrated with the cold....and I know I should've been drinking way more water...but I just couldn't bring myself to and actually had way less then I usually do.  Time to start flushing this bug outta my system and build up my strength again.  This cold really wiped me out and stole my appetite...the lack of energy isn't surprising, but the lack of appetite was....considering I wasn't throwing up or anything.  Ah well, it's coming back...I actually had cereal today after drinking my greens+ so that's a good sign...and my tummy has been growling again.  Yay for wanting food again.  Hehe. Anyhow...I need to get up for a bit, get dressed and go exchange something.  The place were I buy my greens+....well, I decided to try the greens+ with multivitamins in it....instead of the greens+ with extra energy...and well...the multi makes me gag.  It makes me feel like I'm in the past and od'ing on liquid medications....it's awful...so I called the place I got it and asked if they'd exchange an product that's already open and they said that as long as I am a member there they would...Yay!!!  So that's awesome because that stuff costs $60.  Definitely sticking to the extra energy greens+.  No more of the multivitamin one for me.  Not worth it if it's that much of a torture and not necessary.  I will try to get in the habit of taking a multivitamin in pill form again.   Mentally I'm doing good.  Waiting for the bomb to drop but trying to remain optimistic.  I quite often get a drop in moods if I've been sick, and when I'm on my period, so really I should be expecting a double drop...lol.  But hopefully it won't.  I think as long as I keep my focus on God, He'll help me keep perspective....like in the cartoon.  Alright, this is getting long.  So this is enough for now.  I'll catch up on all your journal entries after I get back home.
