Sickness and Gift Knitting

I am supposed to be finishing my Christmas gifts, but the internet is making me procrastinate. I have four projects to knit by Sunday and about 50 store hours to work on them. Obviously I can't post them here until after the holidays, but they will be on my Ravelry by Friday since none of the recipients can access them there.

I have been pretty sick for the last two weeks, a combination of stress and anxiety catching up with me. Then, one of the antibiotics they gave me ended up making me even sicker so I went off of it on Monday and I am feeling way better. The doctor said that I might have to add another antibiotic, but I have a really healthy immune system so I am going to try a few days on just a general antibiotic and see if I continue to improve before adding unnecessary medication. Yesterday was the first day in over 2 weeks that I consumed 1000 calories. I am going to try to get up to 1500 calories a day by Friday and I should be back to normal eating spicy foods by next Monday.
