Colds and the continuity of life

I'm working on blogging twice a week, Mondays and Fridays, but it's not working out. (I told you about Murphy's Law and me!) This week the problem was a cold. Colds have a way to creep themselves into my body. Then I have some difficulty breathing and feel week. I only want to sleep. Sleep. Meanwhile everything else falls apart around me and I don't seem to be interested in anything. Not music, not singing, not anything. Can't concentrate.

Most of my friends feel sick with an upcoming cold and/or sinus infection, and they go to work, continue to do what's expected of them. At the end of their cold they have completed all the things that they were supposed to have completed before the cold started. That's not my experience. My life seems to fall apart when I get a cold, sinus infection or any upper respiratory infection. It's not how often I get them. Actually I don't get them that often. Not since I started acupunture treatments. But when I get them I cannot accomplish anything. It's very annoying.

So that's why last week blog wasn't done. I had a cold. I went to sing a couple of times because I needed the income. Interestingly enough my voice wasn't impaired. I could reach every single note at the bottom and top of my voice. I just didn't feel like singing. I wanted to be home or somewhere else to sleep. I needed to learn and practice the songs of the new CD An Angel Voice in the Subway, but I dind't do that. I seemed like to much work. I wanted to sleep. 

Now that I feel better I have completed another blog.  There we go.
