Feeling Awful

January 12th, 2012 at 09:54 pm

I haven't been posting as much as usual as almost everyone here at Casa LuckyRobin is bedridden and SA ate my posting attempt yesterday. DS started it with the worst cold I've seen in a long time. The poor thing has the horrible red patch you get under your nose when all you are doing is blowing constantly. His cheeks are bright red from being flushed. He's got a nasty cough and a raspy voice, but according to the doctor it is "just" a cold.

Then Mom caught it. Then I caught it, though not as badly as DS or maybe it's because I'm willing to take cough syrup and he's not. DD claims she has it, too, but no fever, no cough, no dead zombie eyes and no snot, so I don't think so. And she wanted to go to school, while the rest of us resent having to crawl out of bed long enough to even use the bathroom.

Then this morning DH decides to hurl all his food. Twice. Not the same thing as what DS and I have, thank goodness. He has a few days to get better before he has to be on a plane headed back up to work. He tends to bounce back fast so I hope he does.

I am so exhausted, despite sleeping about 14 hours of the last 24. It's enervating. I have physical therapy tomorrow, so hopefully I will feel strong enough to go. It's not until 11:15 so at least I'll be able to sleep in.

I have done some financial stuff in the last few days, but I'll combine it with the stuff I have to do either later today or tomorrow.

Oh, and added 38 cents to the coin jar.

    I had a nasty cold/flu that sounds similar, in July. I was down for like a whole week - it was awful. Weird thing was it just affected us all differently. I was the only one who puked 24 hours straight - it was awful. Dh kept insisting I was so sick because I took some heavy drugs. Because no one else got stomach flu with it. Yeah, whatever. Rolleyes I puked 24 hours straight because I popped a couple of pills? Um, no? (I NEVER take heavy drugs, so speaks to how miserable I was. I took more drugs for that cold than for childbirth or post-surgery. I thought it was possible I had mono again - which was the only time I had felt so miserable, and my nieces had mono at the time. Doctor assured me I couldn't get it again. Phew! I Was skeptical until I recovered). Though I think we all had less cough/runny nose and more sore throat.

    Anyway, reading it going around the blogs, it sounds a little familiar. Maybe we got it out of the way already. I remember because it was odd to be so sick in the middle of July, and I missed the kids' birthday party.

    Hope you all feel better very soon!

    I really hope you are all feeling better now! Smile Using cotton hankies can help prevent the raw nose problem. That's all I try to use when I'm sick.
