10-Minute Warning LX

OK. What happened in my life today?

I’m supposed to have a job interview today, but I’m so weak again that I feel like I have a ball and chain while walking. I had to reschedule and thankfully my potential employer agreed to it. I truly hope I become better tomorrow and not screw up the interview.

Today my body just feels weak, and somehow I’m worried that it will turn into the flu. Why? My Father had the flu last weekend (he is now better), and my Younger Brother has the flu today. But even if I felt weak, I had to be strong and help my Mother take care of my Younger Brother.

And strong, I became. Forcefully. Somehow tonight I pushed through going upstairs and bringing Younger Brother his dinner, bringing his plate downstairs, preparing his laptop so he can watch How I Met Your Mother, and then blogging at this moment. It was like I was running on an emergency battery and now I truly feel weak. But it was worth it because I love my family and I have to take care of them when they are sick.

I hope my Younger Brother gets well soon. And I hope my current weakness gets away as well.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning LVI

So, what can I share here in under 10 minutes?

I woke up groggy and dazed because I slept late last night. And then the weak feeling turned into this massive headache. The good news though is that I only worked for a few hours today, so I was able to get an extra hour of sleep. Eating and taking a nice, cold bath helped get rid of the pain as well.

And what’s the other good news? I enjoyed watching The Legend of Bruce Lee on Netflix with my Mother and Father. We started watching last weekend, and we have watched 4 straight episodes today. Here’s to more wonderful bonding time with the people I love!

And time’s up.

Gratitude Log II

It’s 9:00pm as I’m typing this, and I’m tempted to make another Minute Warning post. But instead, I will take this time to be thankful and make the 2nd edition of the Gratitude Log!

So, what am I thankful for as of this moment? Well, this is going to be a long post because it’s about my current job. Buckle up!
