Up and at um!

Anddddd...she's back in the game!! Today is the first day I am FINALLY feeling back to normal. It all started with a quick downhill on tuesday- lasting until about last night. I think I averaged about 15-18 hours of sleep per day this week. And I know I am sick when all I want to do is get back in bed. Reading anything: the computer screen, Menu Pages, a book, made me feel more sick, so I pretty much caught up on sleep in a major way, as well as any reality show you can think of right now. Project Runway? Real Housewives? Make me a Supermodel (or whatever it is)? Ask away, I am your girl. Oh and just about any season of America's Next Top Model, as well. (PS- did you know they are coming out with a Real Housewives of NYC? Can't WAIT!). Also, after the amount of Food Network I have watched, I should officially be a chef. My favorite recipe of the week? Barefoot Contessa's Bacon Mac and Cheese, can't WAIT to make that one!!
Other updates:

Work- SO much to catch up on now. After getting sick at work on Tuesday, and only lasting about one hour in the office on Thursday, next week is going to be rough. I am scheduled to be in Philly for a work training Wed-Friday, so I can imagine it's going to be some long nights in the hotel to catch up. Hopefully my new laptop comes before I leave so I don't have to use the world's slowest laptop with Windows98 I have been given from work until now.

Training/Hip- What is this...training you say?? Day 6 of no working out, day 14 of no running :( The flu took a little pressure off, and I was hoping would help my hip feel better if it simply an overuse injury, however, I can tell that isn't happening. I really think the only reason my hip is feeling better this week is the FAB-u-LOUS painkillers the doc prescribed, however this worries me as I move forward with the injury.

Travel- Plans all made, tickets booked (need to confirm Tuesday). All hotels booked except Durban, need to do on Tuesday.

And I am now realizing that I have SORELY neglected the namesake of this blog. I have indeed been very good in the past few weeks about NO NEW SHOES, as I have only been trying to do India/Travel related shopping. So, over the next few days, I will begin to post pics of my favorite shoes in my closet, so I can share the love with the world :) Oh, and at least the heels can get some action as my hip is in NO position to be sporting 3+ inches right now....
