Totally wasn't allergies, although I'm sure they didn't help - totally WAS a cold, or conference crud, or whatever. Friday I felt horrible, yesterday morning I felt a tiny bit better but then used that feeling better to clean the house, and then spent the rest of the day feeling WAY worse ( Read more... )

I really wish I could call in sick today. Starting Weds at the conference in Cincinnati, I started sneezing and my nose started running - sure it was allergies, I started taking my Zyrtec - when I finally got home at 10:30, my throat was SO sore, my head pounding, and I barely slept. Yesterday it blew up with my nose running so much it kept ( Read more... )

This morning my car yelled at me that the tire pressure was too low, so after lunch, with a miraculous entire afternoon with no meetings, I went to get them filled - then drove home to check on the house to make sure that our houseguest left things locked and such ( Read more... )

Like - literally - Glenn's working 9am to midnight, the kids are in college, my mom is working all day, and the dogs are getting groomed - and I have the house to myself. And I am so unmotivated to do ANYTHING ( Read more... )

I cannot believe how quickly I felt better from that cold. I was feeling MISERABLE. I was coughing up nasty stuff, blowing my nose to the point it's chapped, and just wanting to hide under the covers ( Read more... )

Since not feeling well the other day, which I was concerned was a CSF leak to be perfectly frank, this has morphed into a cold that just sucks. Spent last night trying to find a way to sleep and breathe, spent most of yesterday trying to breathe shallowly so as to not set off another coughing fit. Coughing hurts like something is being ripped. My ( Read more... )

Kelsey called me yesterday, and started the conversation with "I know you're going to be upset" ... turns out that she has been struggling with all the work she has at school plus all the expectations associated with the sorority, and she wanted to withdraw from the sorority, but didn't want to disappoint me. She has been having small panic attacks ( Read more... )

 Went to bed at 8:30, slept all night I think, but I feel completely drained, my stomach is unhappy, and looking at pictures of food is enough to make me understand I shouldn't put anything in my mouth.  Just really thirsty, and fuzzy headed, and my stomach is jumping around badly ( Read more... )

I am sitting here with a giant pile of tissues and half an empty box, and that's only from 7am this morning. My nose is out of control, I'm sneezing and coughing, and overnight my stomach decided to empty itself in any way possible, all at the same time (which I have to say scared the shit out of me - if an orgasm = 40 pounds of lifting, what does ( Read more... )

Ty is running a fever - since he woke up it has gone from 100.4 to 101.4.  Watching his tick bite area - it's still red, but more like a bite than a lyme rash/bullet like I had - but yeah, that's going through my head.  He is dizzy too.  If it keeps up, we'll be going to the drs in a little bit.  I still have the tick, wonder if they can test it if ( Read more... )
