I have been sick for about three weeks now. I've complained little and tried to ignore it all for the most part. I took Luke in for his cough just when I was starting my illness and the doc said a three week cold was going around... that was nasty. So.... I resigned myself to the fact that I too, had this three week cold.
It has been hell.
This weekend I hit the wall. Yesterday we did very little. I pretty much did nothing. Scott had a boys night out... and the kids were angels... Luke asked to go to bed at 7:30 and Ally watched a movie with me in bed and then we both passed out. Scott slept downstairs upon his return... he said we both looked so comfy.
Today, I tried hard to be tough. Went over to Jane and Adam's for a family dinner... powered through... but I feel like death. Have a headache I can't get rid of. Chills. Aches. Pains. And I'm exhausted. I'm just so sick of being sick and I pray it's all over soon cuz this is such a terrible time to feel this bad.
Tomorrow is parent's night at school. I am really looking forward to hearing from Ally's teacher about what the year has in store for us... I love her already.... as does Ally.
Only a two day work week.... thank goodness... and some salon pampering on Thursday..... I hate feeling like I just have to make it through, cuz really my kids need me to be healthy more than work does. I am so sick on not having energy for them. Feel like I'm letting them down... even though I know I'm not. I have forged on through it all. The only one who suffers really, is me.....
Maybe if I actually took it easy, I would get better, faster... but that's not my style. ;-)
