As you may have seen on Tumblr, I am quite ill.

Dear Reader,

I am quite ill between the pneumonia that has been lasting since, well, I think it was the last week of August I was diagnosed. I've been on three courses of antibiotics. It has been unpleasant because I am exhausted on top of the preexisting sleep problems that have been going on for nearly two years. It is currently 4:21 in the afternoon here and I will need to start working on dinner soon. I have no desire to do anything but sleep. My chest aches but I have had at no point in time since I was diagnosed has an urge to cough. This is deeply concerning because it's pneumonia, you're supposed to cough that gunk out of your chest so you can breathe.

I am trying to kick start my writing mojo back into action but it is really hard to write when you are unconscious. I have been sleeping a good deal of the day. Chores are starting to stack up again. It's rough. Next week, I will be speaking with a sleep specialist about the results of the sleep study and finding out if there's anything they can do about that problem. I will also be talking to my family doctor about this pneumonia business. I am really hoping that we don't have to take the next step and admit me to the hospital to figure this out. I have things to do and kids to mind.

I am doing my best not to worry but it is difficult when you've been sick for approximately two months.
