Woke up with a chest cold this morning. I had noticed last night I had a dry cough. It hit me hard this morning. Temperature of 101 – 103, chills, headache, and cough. Damn! I don’t have time for this right now. The next three weeks are full of things to do.
I got up this morning, took some Tylenol and went back to bed. Rinse and repeat all day long. I did manage to get my chicken chores done and drove the car down to get the mail and bring the trash can up. Think it is nap time again – that little venture wore me out.
I haven’t been sick for over a year. I used to get this crap three or four times a year but only had it once early last year. Trusting it will pass quickly and not return for another year or two. I am not a good patient.
I did manage to eat breakfast but couldn’t get my lunch down. I have some soup I will heat up for dinner and see if I can get some of that down. When I don’t feel good I tend not to eat. I have been trying to drink lots today and flush this out of my system.
Trusting this is a short-lived bug and by Monday I will be on the mend. Luckily I don’t have anything on my calendar until then.
Grateful for the warmer temperatures today, grateful for Tylenol, and grateful I could go back to bed and rest all day.
