Hate being sick...

So this past week has been, well, simply horrid! Last Sunday, I started getting this really sore throat and had alot of mucus running down my throat. My "cold" just got worse and worse to the point where I was hoarse and couldn't stop coughing. I started getting head aches, body aches, light fevers, and chills. I went to work and school all week anyway and just endured through it with no voice and feeling completely miserable. But by the time Friday came around, I couldn't take it anymore. So I convinced Malone to take me to the Dr. After spending maybe 15 minutes in the office, I walked out of there with a prescription for antibiotics and some steroids to treat laringitis and bronchitis, in hopes of preventing minor pneumonia. So what may have started out as a cold, turned into something much worse. In the past I have bragged about how I never get sick, except maybe a cold or something. Well, I jinxed it this time. I'll never brag about my good health again! Since I've been taking the medicine, my sore throat is gone, no more aches or chills, I'm not coughing as badly as before, and my voice is recovering. I am so glad I didn't wait another week to get into the doctor. I just hope I didn't get anyone else sick!!

Other than the "health" theatrics, things have been alright with Malone and I. I had an interview with the hospital 2 weeks ago for a secretarial position in the education department. I just found out a couple days ago that I didn't get the job. It would have been so great for us too. It had great pay, part-time hours, offered benefits, and it was right here in Rexburg only a few minutes from our apartment. I've applied at a few other places, but nothing yet. Malone also has a chance at a job in Idaho Falls as an assistant for a Mechanical Engineer, which would give him a great opportunity to get some experience in his field. We're still working on that though, so we'll see how it goes.

Right now we are looking for a new apartment... again. Yeah, rent is going up and it just isn't worth it. So we're looking at our options and hoping to find something soon.
