Well, it has been a while. Today I woke up late and looked out my window to a winter wonderland. I was surprised. I knew that there had been a snow warning for the last 48 hours but I have been quarantined to by bed with a cold that is so miserable that I have taken to gurgling salt water because, well, nothing else has worked. Oh let me back track a little bit so you know what is going on.
I have been going to the Sandpoint Middle School special ed room, for one of my classes. It has been very rewarding and eye opening. The teacher is wonderful, and so are the kids, except at least half of them are sick. Oh yes recycled air in a middle school in winter! Anyways, I started to get a sore throat on Wednesday, and sounded like a man on Thursday. Went to work on Friday, which if any of you came by you in the AM then you might of heard me, not pretty. I had called my sister, and one of her daughters answered the phone "mommy there is a man on the phone for you." was what they heard, they didn't even know that it was there Aunt!! Saturday was even better and I didn't talk to people because it hurt too much. Sunday I was so tired I slept through my two alarm clocks, and was only up for 5 hours then went back to bed, so I could open Monday and Tuesday.
Now for this being just a cold it is kicking me my butt. I am so tired, and just moving from one place to the other is exhausting. Wednesday I stayed in bed all day and now today I am finally doing homework and trying to find somebody to work for me tomorrow. I don't know what his is but I am going to be really happy once it is done because you never get the same things twice, right!
Well I want to end on a positive note, and that is I am only sick, not dead or in the hospital. It could always be worse...
Awww, KTO, I'm so sorry this bug hit you, too! I swear it is the worst strain of widespread sickness I've ever seen. Reading classmates' blogs/discussions, talking to people, running errands - everybody's complaining of the same thing! It's so consuming. Scot and I sat on the couch for an entire week together, but I was sick nearly two weeks total. I hope you get over it much more quickly! If you need anything, let me know, okay? Hot soup? Fruit smoothie? Chick flick?
ReplyDeleteI feel you on being sick. I have not been able to swallow without cringing for like five days. I am so sorry that you are so sick. Your body wants you to just chill I guess. Sometimes it sucks to just listen to your body and do what your body says. FEEL BETTER!!!!!
