Again?

I am sick.

Again.
Doesn't it seem like I was just sick? I thought that respiratory bug I had for two weeks in December would have been enough to hold me through the new year. At least through January.

I started having a scratchy throat last night (ironically, right after I finished drinking a homemade smoothie that was packed with healthy goodness), and now I'm up at 2 AM not feeling so hot.

Thankfully, one of my classes was postponed to Tuesday (that I have to play a duet for), and my two other class professors both have good sick policies. Seriously, though, I do not want to start the week off this way! I was in bed at 8 PM last night so that I could get a lot of practicing done this morning. I have a lot of work to catch up on before my lesson on Wednesday, since I missed practice this weekend for the women's retreat (which was great, by the way!). Maybe God is saying I need more time to process what I learned. After all, it was rush, rush, rush the moment I walked through the door Saturday evening. Piano concert at school that night, playing in a master class the following morning.

I don't like going to the doctor. But this feels familiarly like strep, so off I go in the morning. I'll need a doctor's note for school anyway.

Prayers appreciated. :)
