I’m not one to give into complaining and usually have a pretty optimistic view on life but, these last couple of days have been a challenge. Let me explain/complain…I woke up 3 days ago with a horrible cough and head cold. No fever so, it’s not the dreaded H1N1 but, still a common cold can be very annoying. My ears are plugged, my skin hurts, my nose hasn’t stopped dripping and my head feels like it’s going to explode.
I am not sleeping very well cause of my cough and needing to go to the bathroom every hour or so it seems. Sorry if that’s too much info! Last night I was desperate and resorted to one of my Mom’s old home remedies…I put a teaspoon of Vicks Vapo-rub in a bowl with hot water, put my head as close to the water as possible, cover my head and the bowl with a towel and breathed in the methol fumes. (I know Vicki is laughing her head off right now!) I was desperate! The Haley’s teased me relentlessly because I looked ridiculous but, I needed to breathe…no one gave me sympathy!
To top things off I stubbed my baby-toe so hard I can’t wear any of my shoes because of the swelling. Who does that? Seriously, it’s totally purple.
Feeling lazy today cause of all of the above and it’s rainy outside. Lazy days are rare for me so I’m choosing not to feel guilty about it. Just hanging out with my kids and blogging…hope your day is going better then mine. I need to end this post and blow my nose.
