A Funnelweb World

No time for feeling crook

Posted by sg On October - 19 - 2008


Anyone who knows me knows that when it comes to being sick I hate 2 things - taking painkillers and going to doctors. I prefer to just ride it out. And I hate not feeling well as it gets in the way of all the stuff I want to do.

Having a headache each morning makes it difficult to concentrate and to get started with developing the early stages of my web idea. I was hoping to spend this weekend testing out how to use the google geolocation API to determine someone’s location when they accessed my site on their mobile (the idea being so I could then push some relevant content and free offers to them). But yesterday I was barely able to drive to Sainsburys to get the shopping done - managed to fix a few things on london for free but spent the rest of the day resting.

Having a headache and ringing in my ears will also get in the way of all the stuff I want to do this week. I am hoping we can make a start on two big new projects at work, and that means holding workshops to analyse requirements and agree high level project plans. I really want to get stuck into it - just wish / hope I feel in top form for doing it.

And not feeling my best will also make chairing tomorrow night’s T&RA meeting more challenging. Thankfully we have agreed an agenda for it and hopefully we can plough on through it fairly smoothly. I really don’t want to have to sort out arguments or tell anyone to behave or leave.

Maybe I’ll try and struggle through tommorrow and if I’m still sick by Wednesday, I’ll give in and visit Dr B.

  1. Kimberly Said,

    How are you feeling? Do you think it could be sinisitis - your symptoms sound a bit like it. Have you been to the doctor?

    Take care.

    Love
    Kimberly

  2. admin Said,

    I’ve been to both the dentist and the doctor, and yep you got it - sinusitis. Never had it before and hope I don’t get it again in a hurry.

    Fair dinkum, don’t think I’ve ever had such bad headaches. (or maybe that’s due to a lack of caffeine and alcohol!)

    Now morphing into a bad cold - ah, the joys of living in England (not that its cold at the moment, though).
