Oh What Fun

Have I mentioned before that I HATE being sick?? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I have. It rates somewhere up there between going to the dentist and oh say maybe a wedgie. So what's even more fun?? Going to the dentist while I'm sick. Since I'm guessing I won't be feeling better come Tuesday. Oh goody. I can't breathe out of my nose and I have a mouth full of hands. I started getting sick at work Thursday night and was miserable all day yesterday. A little better today but I still feel a bit like someone shoved half a bag of cotton balls up my nose. So not fun. Even better is that I still haven't found a ride to and from the dentist (which I need if I'm going to do the sedation) and I don't know if they'll let me just take a cab. So the idea of a root canal with a cold and no sedation is making me seriously anxious.
Hopefully by next weekend I'll be all better so if I do head off to the beach for the day I won't be too miserable. Other than the fact that I think AF is due to arrive late next week.
Not a whole lot more going on. I'm still having a hard time at work. It's the two charges nurses who are still really getting to me and I'm really not that good at pretending to be a duck and letting it all just roll off my back. I'm struggling with the difference between not being someone who gives up and runs away and being bothered by the fact that I pretty much dread going to work and feeling like life's too short. I've been watching and there are several positions open in other departments in the hospital that I'm interested in but I haven't applied yet.
I'm also still trying to figure out when I'm heading home for a few days to see if I can get my house rented out. And trying not to stress on the whole what if I can't get it rented thing.
The weather here is fantastic, not too hot and still sunny. I think it's time for me to go out and enjoy it a bit.
