Mono

I'm single, 30 years old, and I have Mono.
I would love to know whom I've been kissing in order to get this horrible illness!!
I have never been so sick for so long in my life. Today is about the 2 week mark and we really have no idea how much longer I'll be sick. It could be another 2-4 weeks of extreme fatigue with severe sore throat and swollen glands.
My focus everyday is to drink at least 64 oz of fluid, I'm loving Powerade Zero heavily watered down, and to be still as often as I can. I'm so tired I can hardly hold my phone. This fatigue is a different kind of tired, it's like a deep down-to-the-bone tired where I am zapped of all energy but I can't sleep because my throat hurts so much it wakes me up. I've been taking Advil and Tylenol for pain and fever but they really only take the edge off the pain.
I keep looking forward to Thanksgiving (thinking I'll be feeling much better by then) and remind myself no one dies from Mono. I will be fine and I just need to suffer through this.

Happy 9th Birthday Blog!!

My sister Haley mentioned to me a few days ago that this here blog was about to turn 9 years old. Wow!! Has it really been 9 years?!
I have attached an image of the very first post. It seems so silly 9 years later but this blog was created just to have fun and to be funny. I hope it hasn't lost too much of that over the years.
Thanks for reading all of these years and here's to all the years of Art History Alli in the future!
