Refreshing Reward

pina colada

I got sick around Valentine's. I had this terrible headache, I felt dizzy and nauseous at the same time. It turned out to be common colds again but worse this time around.

I had been salivating for my usual drink of pina colada which happens to be my favorite drink ever (hands down!) but my throat was acting up. I knew I was on the verge of having tonsillitis and drinking something cold and sweet would definitely exacerbate my already aching tonsils :(

Tired from sleeping and being sick, I turned all this negativity into something productive and did some early spring cleaning.

finally organized this little space

properly filed impt docs

no more overflowing mails and papers from school :)

I only did a few areas but these were the areas I have been avoiding for the longest time (storage closet, filing cabinet, kids' room, closet, mails/papers). It was so time consuming to sort through clothes, mails, paperwork it took me more than 11 hours on the first day. I was also doing laundry at the same time since I took down the curtains and changed the bed sheets. I was running around like crazy and wanted to do one hundred things all at the same time. I did manage to get things in order but since I started late (1pm) by the time I finished at 11:30pm, I was ready to die. I knew I pushed myself too much but nothing a good night's sleep won't cure. I honestly couldn't wait to wake up the next day as I made a list of things I wasn't able to finish.

The next day I started a little bit earlier and finished around 9pm. I was still feeling sick and tired but decided to reward myself with a pina colada.

With my favorite drink in hand, feet up..best day ever right? :D
