Tired, coughing and oh so sick

Okay so I haven't updated about anything over the holidays yet I swear I'll get to it but today I want to vent about having a crappy cold. I hate them. It is now Monday 7 days after I had the initial symptoms of having a bad cold and I still have yet to get over it. The worst part is the coughing, I can't stop. The bf slept on the pull out couch last night because my coughing was keeping him up. Therefore I am tired as hell as I didn't actually get my cough to stop waking me up till about 1 in the morning. *YAWN*

Well anyway I'll tell you about Christmas, it started out great actually, the bf and I spent alot of time together and with family. Eating way too much food and staying up way to late. Christmas eve was spent out visiting his relatives. We started at about 3pm at his moms house and never got back home till 1 in the morning. Christmas day was hectic though, we slept in and I finally had to drag the bfs ass out of bed so we could open presents before we went to his parents house for Christmas lunch. I received a great amount of presents one being my 3 month membership to the gym that I am proud to say I have been using even though I have this stupid cold that won't quit! I digress, nevertheless we ended up throwing our clothes on and leaping out the door to head to his parents house. His sister worked over the holidays and she works as an RN at a senior citizens home. Shes the pill lady hee hee, anyway she had to work at 3 so we had to eat christmas dinner early there this year, a ton of food was set out in the kitchen as per usual. His mom is a great cook the only thing is she loves to pile up your plate again and again! It was very satisfying though and filling but we weren't done yet. We headed over to my parents house for Christmas dinner there that evening. I didn't eat a thing, well except for the taco dip my aunt makes that I simply adore. Time was spent that night playing cards and hanging with my little cousins and bascially having a great time. Christmas presents were exchanged and my mom loved the painting by the way. I was satiated and tired and ready to go home and conk out.

The rest of the break was full of family and shopping and candy and friends. I'll save that for another time though time for me to head out and find some cough drops or something to take this cough away argh!
