So a week ago Wednesday, I got the call my son had a fever and needed to be picked up from school. He suffered with the fever and nasty cough/congestion through Sunday though still has some sniffles. When my daughter came home from church on Sunday, she didn't even take off her jacket and crawled in bed. Yep - flu struck her too. She missed the whole week of school with a fever, crazy cough and a little vomiting. Still fighting it tonight. And, of course, starting Tuesday evening - I joined in on the flu fun. I feel like death on a cracker - like I've been beaten up or in a car accident. Ugh!
The bad news is that I haven't gotten any exercise this week. The up side is that I saw a very low (for me) number on the scale this morning because I haven't really felt like eating much. We are probably going to miss out on running the Jingle Bell Run on Saturday. This totally sucks! Fingers crossed we can all go back to school/work next week because I have clients that are not all that happy right now and I am running seriously behind.
Tomorrow is a new day. Hopefully one with less aches and normal temps.
Oh, that stinks! :( Sorry you're feeling so lousy. My bout with the flu took me 2 weeks before I felt like myself again. My suggestion: don't push it physically until you're BETTER...I think that really set me back, and I've heard similar things from other friends who were sick.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
Sorry you are feeling crappy. Get better soon.
ReplyDeleteThe good news is you are reminding me to go get a flu shot..
ReplyDeleteThanks for the public service announcement.

I hope your childern are feeling better soon
ReplyDeleteHope everyone feels better! I know as soon as my kiddos get sick, I hit the vit c and zinc to help fight off any germs!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon and that both the children are on the mend!
ReplyDeleteIt's horrible getting sick, but in some ways it's good too, as you rest up and recover. Stay warm. Wash your hands a lot. Then once you're really ready to go (not too soon!) you'll find the first workouts much better than you expect.
ReplyDeleteYuck! Hope everyone is on the mend by now. That first burger or pizza after being sick sure tastes good.
