I hate being physically ill.
Permalink  

The last two weeks I've been more fatigued than usual (I also have chronic fatigue syndrome). I have been sleeping all through the night, but waking up earlier than usual. Last week I got a cold sore, which is always the first indication I've gotten run down.

This morning I got up with a very sore throat and chills off and on. I'm trying to finish up my school work for the day, and then I'm crawling into bed with my canine crew to cuddle and probably sleep!

There's a part of me that still feels guilty for taking care of myself, but by golly it beats the alternative and getting even sicker! biggrin.gif

Sorry you're feeling so crummy. Get lots of liquids and rest and enjoy the unconditional love of your canine crew!

Hope you feel better soon.

I'm done with school work, going to eat some soup now and go to bed.

We had a cold front come through two nights ago, and have north winds gusting up to 40 mph today. Darned good day to crawl back into bed!

TH, maybe add some vitamin C too, definitely get rest. You can't get too run down or stress over taking care of yourself because that depletes your immune system too. Get rest with the canine crew and let it go. Dream a wonderful dream!!! I hope you feel better.

Wishing you well,

I am sorry you are feeling umwell, but don't you feel guilty for a single minute about taking care of yourself.  You cuddle up with those puppies and have a good sleep.
