2014 hasn’t exactly had the greatest start.

For New Year’s Eve, we went over to our friend’s house for dinner and some movies. Which was fun and we wound up getting home a little after 1:30 in the morning. New Year’s Day, M went out shooting and four-wheeling with friends while I started to un-decorate the Christmas tree and head out to yoga class. Afterwards I went to my grandparents house, and then back home for the rest of the evening.

About 1 a.m. Thursday morning, I woke up with really bad stomach cramps. For the past couple of years I’ve been dealing with some crazy stomach/digestive issues that have woken me up in the past, so I was thinking that it would be as simple as to go to the bathroom and then go back to bed. My issues haven’t been so easily pin-pointed into what causes them, because some days I can eat something and be fine, and then a week later eat the EXACT same thing and have problems. So I’m not 100% sure what the cause is.

Anyways, like I said, I got up and went to the bathroom and then had a drink of water and went back to bed. Stomach cramps continue and start getting a little worse. So I’m up and down a few times before I finally throw up and I’m thinking ok, maybe I was just really full. Because I had felt that way most of the day. Nope. My alarm goes off and I get up and take the dogs out and feed them and then I get sick again around five. And then the other pleasantries start. So at this point I’ve decided there is no way I can make it to work so I’m going to take a sick day. So I spent all of yesterday sleeping, going to the bathroom, or being miserable. Which sucked. I’m feeling quite a bit better today, and I think, based off my symptoms of the last time I had food poisoning, that I got food poisoning again from something. I’m not sure what. I’m assuming from something I ate for lunch Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, since all the other meals I had the same thing as someone else.

So yeah, not the most exciting start to the new year. But I’m feeling better, and hopefully will be back to a good 95% on Saturday for yoga class, before the whole snow-maggedon that’s coming Saturday night to Sunday!
