Too Early ....

.... to be sick. I have a lovely bronchial infection. It's taken me down pretty good. I ache every where, a lovely fever makes me hot and cold, my chest is full and my cough hurts. I'm doing all the right things, including visits with my doctor,  drinking tons of fluids, sleeping as much as I can (in between coughing) and finally yesterday, giving in to antibiotics, which I was happy to accept, shocking my doctor. After two weeks of this, I'm done with it but hope now that there is medication moving through my body that I'll recover quickly. I'm truly not very good at laying about at all, especially when I have long task lists that need my attention to stay on track with life. 


This is all I can eat right now and my homemade soup as well. The throat just won't take anything that needs functional chewing and swallowing. At least it's nummy and keeping me full. I usually don't come down with a nasty chest infection until Januaryish so this is far too early. But maybe I'll be lucky and this will be it for the year. Fingers crossed my wish comes true.

All in my head.

I'm still hurting. And now I have a nasty
head cold. Trying to explain to my dear
husband what it feels like, I made the
mistake of saying "it hurts so much & it's
all in my head!" To which he replied,
"then I really can't feel bad for you if
you've made it all up!" Took me a bit
to figure out the joke. And honestly, as
funny as he can be, that one didn't make
me giggle. Just added to my pain ....

Our Little Guy.


Home sick today, again, with a high fever.

So sad to see him not well. 

Thankful for a flexible job so I can be here.

Holding his little hand while he sleeps.

Hoping for a quick end to his pain.

Off to the children's hospital soon.

My eyes, My eyes!!

I have a really bad case of Pink Eye. Actually, Pink Eyes because it's in both eyes today. It was hard to rest today with what felt like knives scratching them all day. Anytime I'd finally fall asleep for a short nap, I'd wake up with crusty eyes, gooped closed. This is on top of the pneumonia that is having a party in my body. So tired of feeling  unwell right now!


P.S. I love you all my dear friends & therefore spared you a real picture of my eyes. This was a nicer image but if you have a visual imagination, feel free to guess what my eyes really look like!

My Love ....


.... tucked me into my 
comfy bed tonight, after I 
worked all day with a stuffy 
head, dizziness, aching ears and 
a constant shift between 
being hot and cold. 

He made a yummy dinner, 
soft so I could swallow.

Heated up my hot water
bottle to the exact temp
I love and can tolerate. 

He turned on the tv so I 
could be entertained
and plugged in my laptop
so I could write. 

Not sure what I did to deserve
him but thankful he takes such
good care of me. He 
truly is my love!
