I’m Done

I’m done being sick. I’m done not being able to breathe through my nose. I’m done blowing my nose in vain. I’m done being exhausted. I’m done coughing. I’m done with the pressure in my head pounding through my cheeks and in my jaw and ears. 

Yesterday I was so exhausted I had my cup of coffee in the morning, another coffee in the middle of the morning, another in the afternoon. Then after work, I had a glass of wine after supper and a margarita before bed. Today was better. Just two cups of coffee. 

Maybe tomorrow I’ll be back to normal, but I’ve said that for about a month now. I’m done.
