Woke up Sunday with terrible pain in my face and ears...immediately knew I had a sinus infection (I've had so many in my life, it's easy to tell). Went to the doctor Monday morning, and according to her, it was the most "impressive" one she had seen in a long time. I actually have bruising and swelling around my eyes. Anyway, she put me on antibiotics, obviously. But also prednisone for a week. I always gain weight every time they put me on it, and usually it's only a 5 day course instead of a week. I don't weigh in until Saturday, but I'm not very optimistic!
To make matters worse, my husband has to go to Hawaii Wednesday for a conference, yes, without me! Lol. He doesn't have to travel very often, so I should be grateful. But, that leaves me, 4 kids aged 6 or younger to care for, and all the farm work (feeding and watering all the chickens, pigs, cattle) that needs to be done every morning and evening. It was too wet to take the hay out to the pasture for the cattle today...he nearly got the tractor stuck trying to get it on the fork. So I'll have to give them hay by hand for the rest of the week. Not a huge deal, usually since we only have 8 head, but still kinda a pain in my big sick butt...haha. I guess the bright side is, I'll be getting extra exercise!
