Sick

[kybearfuzz]

Ugh. I hate being sick. Silly, as I can't imagine that anyone enjoys it, except for hypochondriacs. Luckily, with my itchy eyes, coughing, general lethargy, chills, and diarrhea, I know mine is legit. I've slept a lot this weekend.

This one crept on me. It started with a periodic sneeze earlier this week. It's Springtime, so I blamed it on the blooming trees and such. Then it became a cough. Again, it wasn't constant, so I blamed the Springtime flood of plant crap in the air. By Friday, a headache settled in. Several folks at work had headaches and we blamed it on weather front changes. By lunchtime, I finally caved to the idea that I'm sick and went home. I slept three hours, was awake for three, then back to bed again.

Thank heavens for The Golden Girls marathons on Logo, TVLand, and another cable station. It's kept me entertained through my few waking hours.

I'm hoping this all blows over by Monday. I have a busy week ahead of me.

Ugh... me too. It doesn't look like I'll make it to work tomorrow. Still have a fever and I've always heard fever = contagious...

[rubs] I'd bring ya some chicken soup (or whatever your preferred version of same is) if I could, man! :-)

I bought some tomato soup and I'm going to add some diced tomatoes to it. I have a craving for chunky tomato soup and dang if I could find any at the store.

Rest, recuperate, and nap often, I say. Make sure you're eating something, even if its light. I don't wanna go all Nurse Ratched on you.

No Nurse Ratched please... :)

Welcome to spring. Keep your eyes rinsed with visine or similar and try a netti pot with a saline solution to give your nasal passages some relief. Prescription type antihistamines are helpful, but I would avoid steroid type meds if you can because the after effects can be a beyotch. Oh and have someone make you a bit bowl of burgoo.

LOL... thanks! You know I've never had a bowl of burgoo. It just wasn't popular in my neck of the woods growing up. I've looked up the recipe and, on all accounts, it looks pretty tasty!
