I got up with the alarm at 4 this morning planning to go on a 5 mile run.  At a mile and a half away from my house, I had this overwhelming feeling that I should continue the direction I was going, so I turned back.  3 miles was a good distance this morning though, because it turns out, I was super tired (imagine that... being tired at 4 in the morning). :o)

4 am is dedication! Do you get the creeps running that early in the am? I know I do but maybe I am just a chicken.

Normally I do, but this morning I did. Something just didn't seem right.

okay, i need to edit what I said. typically I *DON'T* get the creeps. LOL

Good idea to follow your gut! I am always running like a scared rabbit when it is that early--flashlight in one hand and mace ready to go in the other hand. Every little rustle of a bush sets my heart fluttering. The fear makes me run like a deer though-my fastest paces are in those early early runs!

Good for you, that is SO early!

How are ya doing?

So you wake up at O dark thirty once and you call it quits?

From Camille on Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 13:44:09 from 75.171.10.233

LOL. No... I had my wisdom teeth pulled on Thursday and apparently am highly allergic to the antibodic that they gave me. I thought it was a flu until it got drastically worse. I promise to be dedicated again... just give me a few days.

From Kelli on Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 18:14:23 from 71.219.95.20

How ya feelin' today? And is the flu out of the house?

From Camille on Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 19:47:45 from 71.223.66.14

What I thought was the flu, wasn't the flu for me... it was a reaction to my medication. I lost 8 pounds yesterday from being sick... and then it dawned on Brandon to check my medication. Sure enough, all my symptoms were listed as on the "stop taking this medication if these happen" list. It also listed Keflex on the "don't take this medication if you are allergic to these medicines list" and I'm allergic to Keflex, so that should have been a sign. Brandon and Melanie are all better. Melanie had a bad cold and Brandon thinks he had food poisoning. It went away really fast. Teaches him, eating taquitos from the Quicky Mart! I thought he was smarter than that... LOL

I'll be fine, eventually I'll get over this nasty feeling. Now that I know what is causing it, I have stopped taking the medicine and started taking Benedryl. That should counter act all the bad vibes.

From Kelli on Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 21:20:12 from 71.219.95.20

Ah, that is awful (although losing 8 pounds in one day would be nice, I am sure it was in no way worth it!!!)

Fell better soon. How are the "teeth?"

From montelepsy on Wed, Apr 08, 2009 at 13:06:36 from 155.85.58.253

Allergies to medications can be pretty serious, I'm glad Brandon caught it.

Feeling any better?
