Aaaahhh-Choo!

I have managed to stay fairly healthy all year, and now as it gets to the last week of 2012, I am sick.  It was hard doing the dragon dance on Saturday as that was the start of it all.  I slept most of the remainder of that day and Sunday as well.  Today I went to work, as it didn't seem fair that the rest of my team had to work on Christmas eve, and not me.  I made it till lunch and then left early.

My big concern here is that I have big plans to train during the week the kung fu school is closed down, but   I can barely walk the length of the store I work at without feeling over exerted, so how am I going to work out?  I have our big family dinner tonight, and then tomorrow I will rest most of the day.  Hopefully by Wed, I can feel strong enough to start to go at it again.  I still have lots I want to do.  I try to keep it in perspective and remember this is a minor set back for me, as I think about the many, many sick people in hospitals around the world that don't even get to be home for Christmas.  My heart goes out to them, and I hope that no matter who they are or where they are, that they are surrounded by family and have a pleasant holiday season.
