Feeling Tired

Well, I think my "allergies" are not allergies, but a cold. I took a Contact C last night because I didn't know what else to take. I had run out of night time sinus stuff which works well and knocks me out and the only thing I had was the Contact C, which is daytime and tends to keep me awake during the night if I take it before bed (it's the 12 hour kind). I did manage to sleep but woke up a few times; not entirely sure if the sleep I did get was restful or not though.

I ended up not going to Bible Study after church (we generally go to my friend's home for the study and have lunch there first and the study around 3pm) because I had too much school work to do and I felt exhausted. My nephew was up, and when he went for his nap I thought I'd be able to do some reading or work on my Hebrew homework...didn't work out that way. I was too tired so I went and had my own little nap. Figured that if I started reading I'd fall asleep anyway.

I woke up 2 hours later...yeah, I hadn't wanted to sleep that long but I guess i must have needed it. I am still somewhat tired, and it is now 10:07 pm (to be exact). I'll be going to bed soon, but I really don't know why I am so tired. The only reason I can figure is that I must be coming down with a cold. I hope not, but I'm prepared...went out and bought some night time sinus/cold pills as well as day time cold pills as a just in case. I'm still hoping I'm just having a doozy of a few days with my allergies, and praying it that if I am getting a cold that I will catch it early enough and fight it off so that it doesn't last very long. I hate being sick...course I don't know of anyone who actually loves to be sick...

I took one of the daytime cold pills in the late afternoon, close to supper time and have only sneezed the odd time though my nose was a little stuffy for a bit. I seem ok now so I think it's just from the medication. I guess I'll know in the next day or so if it really is a cold sneaking up on me. At any rate, I hope to be able to sleep restfully tonight so that I'm not tired during class tomorrow. Thankfully I only have one class and can come home after for a nap if need be.

So, off I go to do a tad bit more reading for school and then head to bed. Hope you all have a Christ filled day tomorrow!

David, thanks for dropping by. I think the reason that Joe comments on my blog is because someone must be paying him to do this...LOL.

Shelley, I can relate to the cold/allergy season. Nothing worse! I pray you will be on the mend quickly. It must be going around. Gayla over at Journey of the Heart has been fighting cold/allergy symptoms also.

David: No. I'm only onetiming you.

Actually I think I missed something on yours. I have yet to understand what's going on.

I guess I'm a little slow, but my mother says I'm not a little anything
