I spent a majority of last week in bed. Like I mentioned in my previous post being sick while pregnant is pretty miserable. I found out I was allowed to take Sudafed, but I might as well have been swallowing sugar pills for all they seemed to have helped. On Thursday, I finally went to my regular doctor and he said I could take Mucinex-D and Afrin nasal spray. Afrin was a miracle. Not quite as good as what, say, Nyquil or 5 shots of vodka would have been, but it cleared my nose so I could finally breathe. So aside from a very red nose, a few sniffles and lingering cough I'm feeling much better.
During my time at home I managed to finish three books. I'm normally a fast reader, but I think I outdid myself this week. I'm hooked on the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer. I read Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse and now I have to go out and buy the fourth book, Breaking Dawn. Apparently, there is a fifth book, Midnight Sun, in the works. Ms. Meyer needs to hurry up and finish that since I'll probably have read "Breaking Dawn" by the end of the upcoming weekend. I was a little surprised by how much I enjoyed the books. At first, I was like, "Okay, this is a little too much L.J. Smith and The Vampire Diaries (which were really popular when I was in like 8th grade), but the more I read, the more I had to admit I was wrong. The Twilight series was definitely better and I've been surprised quite a few times by the twists and turns of the stories.

Vampire novels are my personal guilty pleasure, I've enjoyed the Twilight series as well. Glad to hear you are feeling better!
