State of the Storyteller – Sick

I’ve discovered one big difference between being sick and having my allergies act up.

When it’s allergies, I can power through and ignore them, especially with the help of medicine.

When it’s illness, I have to accept that I can’t power through, even with medicine, and that if I try I’m not going to wind up with the result I was looking for.

I was planning to get so much done this weekend, too…

I’m trying to accept that when I feel better enough to start getting up early to write again, I’ll actually *feel* better. Somehow, I seem to be thinking I’ll miss it and slack off if I don’t set my alarm every morning and try. Since lately, that just ends up in interrupted sleep, I think I’m going to commit to getting up at 6:30 for the rest of this week, or at least until I’m actually healthy again.

*sigh* Sorry to whine. :-p How are you guys doing?
