I’m feeling a bit under the weather today. I have a cold. It’s a week away from summer holidays and I have a cold.

It started all of a sudden Monday afternoon. I was feeling pretty good before it hit me too. I had gone for a nice run through the trails near my house. I’m still a bit slower than I should be at this time of year but that is only because I had to take three weeks off after injuring myself.

As I was just about to come out of the woods, I saw a deer leap across the trail in front of me. It was a little thing and I thought that there might be a mother doe following behind him. So I slowed my pace, just in case. But the fawn disappeared into the bush and I continued my run.

I got home and felt fine. But after dinner, the energy seemed to just drain from me completely. The next morning, I awoke to a scratchy throat, always the first sign that I’m getting sick. My headache from the day before seemed to stay with me as well.  In fact, it has stayed with me all week.

It’s funny how I felt this cold hit me on Monday afternoon. It’s drained all the energy from me this week. I almost didn’t even write a post for today. In fact, I don’t feel like writing at all. I think I’m going to go lay down now and take it easy. Only one week left of school, I can make it.
