Sickness

I'm so tired of being sick. Absolutely fed up with it. I came home early today because I felt like I had been hit by a truck and needed to lie down and rest. I am usually a fairly healthy person so this is unlike me.

I think that stress and the weather are working hand in hand to cause this. I'm stressed out because Master is away and there are so many unknowns going on in our lives. I'm trying to balance working, taking the kids to activities, and getting things in order for the move so some days it feels like there aren't enough hours.

The weather in this area has been bizarre. We have been getting a lot of huge temperature changes, sometimes on a daily basis. Once it evens out I'm usually okay but while things are varying so widely I end up getting sick. I think that I need about three days off and some good, hot, sunny weather to make me feel like I am getting back to normal.

I really miss having Master here when I feel like crap. He's a very nurturing Master and likes looking after me when I feel like crap. It's one way that he shows he loves me. He's still in charge, I still follow rules and orders but when I am sick, he generally orders me to relax and let him take care of me. I really appreciate him being that way and being sick while he is away really hits home just how well he takes care of me.

With luck, this should just be a "stress and lack of sleep thing" that napping should help with. I'll have a better idea if it is when tomorrow morning rolls around.

Fingers crossed.
