It's been a long weekend and week at our house. Jim got sick on Friday and was diagnosed with the flu on Saturday. I went to the doctor yesterday and guess what? Yep - positive on the rapid flu test. We are now two more statistics to add to the pool of influenza misery.
And in case you were wondering - yes - having the flu really stinks. I've been living in my comfy socks and my robe for three days. There is a pile of Puffs Plus tissues in every trash can in my house and my nose is STILL red and chapped.
I'm exhausted but I haven't been able to sleep because I can't get comfortable. I was up and wandering the house at 2:00 a.m. this morning. I got a book from Caleb's room and I've already finished it. I tried working for awhile but I kept forgetting what I was doing (in the middle of doing it).
So for now - I'll continue to curl up on the couch with my box of tissues, my sore throat lozenges, my Diet Pepsi, and my various medications - Ibuprofen, Sudafed, and Tamiflu. And next year???? I'm getting a flu shot.
