What a strange weekend, and certainly not the one that I expected! On Wednesday we finally had a bit of nice weather and since our yard was becoming a jungle I decided to tackle the lawn after my usual 2 mile walk.

Later that night I was feeling truly wimpy and like I needed to workout a lot more than I do now because my whole body felt sore and achy. Of course in my mind I wasn’t thinking that I was sick, just that I was out of shape and doing the lawn. Oh how I was wrong!

Thursday night I was feeling much worse, and had chills and shivers despite the house being a very warm 77 degrees inside. And there were pains, and I just felt all together icky. So I promised myself that if I didn’t feel better in the morning and was still having chills I would get myself to the doctor.

Long story short, I was one sick puppy! Turns out I had quiet the infection, hence the pain in my kidney area and my fever and other general yucky feelings. Antibiotics were prescribed and I am happy to report that I am on the mend. And while I don’t feel 100% back to normal, I certainly feel better!

The sad part is, we finally have been having sun and warm weather. I had been looking forward to getting out into the yard and taking care of some much needed weeding. I was hoping for a nice hike this weekend, in addition to the baby blessing we were supposed to attend for our nephew. Instead I got lots of time laying in bed, and trying to keep warm. At least I had my cute flamingo slippers to keep my feet cozy.
