I am still very much on the mend as this infection continues to work its way out of my body. Rudy woke me up around his usual time and I had a sore throat. I got up and put breakfast out for the cats. I joined them and had a quick breakfast of my own.
I had such plans for today but the way I felt it was one of those days that I was better off in bed. Congestion was and still is my main issue. I had some sinus pain and my teeth hurt a bit. I made my way back to my room to watch TV and eventually got back in bed.
I got maybe an hours sleep then woke up coughing and it felt like I was choking. Sinus soup as I call it was flowing and I hate that stuff. I have moments of feeling hot and cold as well as some minor body aches. I figure I probably have a fever. I’d love nothing more than to sweat it out under the covers for a few hours, wake up and be done with it. However, it doesn’t work that way.
I was watching TV for hours and debating on getting out today. I knew the cats needed food and I really wanted something to eat but as per usual the subject of what to eat is always a difficult choice for me.
It was a little after 1p and the cameras alerted that we had a visitor. I was hoping it would be my iPad but nope it was an express envelope. I figured it was a mistake and meant for someone else. I was shocked to find my address on the label but the package was addressed to someone I don’t know. My first thought was of a brushing scam. As I opened the envelope I found another envelope that contained a new debit card from a bank that I don’t do business with. I did a little bit of research and couldn’t find the person in the area. There was an out of area phone number on the shipping label but no way I was making any calls.
That was just the kick I needed. I got a shower and then threw on some clothes. I felt horrible but was on a mission. I got my mail first then went to the police station. I turned the whole package over to them. They asked what steps I had taken and when the package showed up. They said they would take it from there. I got the usual advice to make sure I watch all of my banking and credit card accounts as well as my credit report. I don’t expect anything will happen with my accounts, which I watch like a hawk and have alerts setup. I just figure that I will probably get more stuff with that wrong persons name on it. I figure I am on a suckers list or at least my address is for some reason.
After my visit with the police I headed for Mexican food the closer I got to this place the worse I felt. However, I ordered my usual and managed to woof it all down. There wasn’t a morsel of food left on that plate I scraped and scraped. You’d think I hadn’t eaten in a week the way I attacked that plate. I was just as surprised but it sure was good.
Back towards home and stopped to get the cats food. Then finally home for the day. Had to login to do some work. I’ve got a mountain waiting for me on Monday and I just dread my two days of actual work next week. Of all of the times to call in sick this would be the absolute worst because everyone else on my team is out. It would sure cause some big issues. I will make it through those two days somehow but know that I will probably be cussing the whole day.
Time to change loads of laundry and head up to pass out treats for the cats and then to come back down and wait for the laundry to finish. I am eager to climb in to a clean bed and I expect to sleep quite well. I just hope that I feel much better when I wake up tomorrow. I want this infection out of me it’s the absolute worst time to get sick but like I tell the cats we all get sick.
Hope that your doing well and that your weekend is off to a better start than mine. Take care.
