Getting Sick...

So, just a few days ago while surrounded by co-workers who were blowing their noses and coughing I thought to myself...wow, I haven't been sick in awhile...how lucky am I? And then, not more than 24 hours later, it hit me...it was just a small ache in the back of my throat on Thursday...by Friday I was feeling exhausted and run down, and began to breathe with difficulty...and now, Sunday night...my right side of my head is clogged...my ear hurts, I can't breathe and I can't get that nasty metallic, dry, gross taste out of my mouth whatever I do. I think it is moving...the sore throat isn't as bad...I am taking night time theraflu...which is SOOOO gross, and yet, what a night of sleep. My husband claims that two nights ago my cat was practically dancing on me and still I slept! Oh well, I imagine this is what I get for being so cocky about my health! To make matters worse...It was SOOOOO gorgeous outside yesterday and today...and I couldn't even get myself out to enjoy it. The spirit was willing but my body was screaming, rest you fool! And...as luck would have it, it is spring...couldn't I have gotten sick last weekend...or even better a month ago? Anyway, just a word of warning about thinking how good you have it...sometimes it can come back and bite you in the...well you know!
