Well…I’m still miserable…miserable…miserable…and I don’t know how to treat it but just to rest…didn’t sleep at all last night but I still can’t nap today…two hours of sleep and I still can’t nap? Yeah…irritates the hell out of me and I’m not sure what to do about that either….this has been one of the worst flu that I can remember and I am starting to get really tired of it….went through a box of tissues since yesterday and when I look in the mirror, it looks like I’ve aged 30 years and I’ve taken on a grey color that is not too flattering….does it sound like I’m sick? Yep…have had enough…
February 11th
Well….running late today with the computer giving me fits again…I guess I’ll have to try to fix it later…did not sleep at all last night…maybe a couple of hours and my bedroom is a miasma of sweat and used tissues from the flu that is still hanging on….it gave me a head fake yesterday and I felt okay for about a half hour but then slapped me down again…I did discover that I won 7 bucks in sat’s power ball so it only took 3 extra bucks to get my five picks for the 485 million for tonight….other that the errand, I didn’t do anything yesterday and today will be the same even though I have lots of stuff I do need to get done around here….but, that is not going to happen with how I feel right now….more later….
More flu chronicles..
Well…it’s halftime of the soccer match so I think I’ll update the flu chronicles since I have had it since sat night…but, it really kicked in on sunday morning and I have been struggling ever since with chills, fever, coughing and a really severe fatigue…oh, and pain that I have not felt in a long, long time…had to run an errand today and could barely push the clutch down to shift…and that is going on right now, too…the one thing that is strange is that I can’t remember getting the flu twice in one year ever…especially since the last one was just the first week of January….and this looks like the bad one since I’m 3 days in and still sweating through my clothes…but, it’s time to go back to the couch and lick the wounds and rest…
February 10th
Well…it was a really crappy day yesterday feeling like I do…worst flu that I’ve had in many, many years and I am sitting here in layers and layers of clothes trying to stay warm….I did get out to get the papers on time today and I am having coffee that tastes like crap to me….and I do have to make a run out today at noon but that will take all of the energy that I have left….other than that, not much to do today…I know…these are short but I feel like crap and just making coffee and reading the paper has done me in for another few hours…more later…flu chronicles are coming back…
February 9th
Well…this one is going to be short…have the flu again and feel like crap so I’m going back to the couch…more later….
Okay…feeling a little bit better but I have just gotten off the couch for the first time today…and I am sweating through my t-shirt so that is not fun…yesterday was much like today and I felt like crap then, too, so I didn’t do much at all but just hang out…and that looks like the plan for today, too, since it took all of my energy just to take a shower and make some soup for lunch…not sure why I went out to wash the car yesterday feeling as I did but I’m glad I did…the locks were a little frozen this morning but I got the door open okay….not going to do much else around here today….after this….need to go back to the couch….
Rockets away….
Well…have been feeling like crap again today with another fever up over 101 and I am getting really tired of it…was just getting over the past one and got up coughing my lungs out again….but, that’s not what this one is about…there is going to be another Space X launch tonight at 6:10 and, after they put the satellite into orbit, they are going to try to soft land again on one of their floating landing pads….that should happen about 7 or so and NASA is going to cover the launch live…not sure if they are going to cover the landing but that would be the cool part…at least there will be video of it tomorrow….that’s it…feeling too crappy to write more so I’ll hit the couch and try to rest….
February 8th
Well…sitting here watching a soccer match that I really don’t care about so I thought I’d get this one done…it was an okay day yesterday and I had fun going over to watch the Wings game with one of my sons…but, I didn’t get anything else done so that needs to change today…slept pretty crappy again and I’m not sure why….oh, well….the tooth has been good the past two days and that is a relief but I am realistic enough to know it won’t last long….I am going to go out and wash the car here in a few minutes since it is in the 30s and I need to get the salt off it while it is warm enough to dry and not freeze…and that needs to be done before Man U plays at 11 so I guess I’ll start to get ready to go out….more later…
I was right….
Well….I was right that today was going to be another one of no accomplishments…other than cooking that is…but, I really don’t feel that bad about it….have had to try to find my Wings gear for the game tonight and have found my Hank shirt that is my favorite…I think I may have to get my son to bet on the goals in the game tonight since it seems to make it more interesting…and, I may even put the top down on the way over there since it is still 40 outside right now and I need to get my February top down run in…but, we’ll see…..not much else to talk about today so I’ll end here…Go Wings!
February 7th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool so that was cool…slept okay but kind of fitfully but feel okay today…I think that’s from eating enough yesterday…still not where I need to be but making progress is a good thing….it was nice to get out and see K for a couple later in the day but that had me tired here last night…fell asleep on the couch, which I never do, and that made a little tightness in my neck today….didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks like more of the same…there is soccer on right now that is getting my attention since it is s good match with Arsenal and Spurs and I think I’ll go back to that here in a minute…not much to do today…going over to one of my sons house for the Wings game later but that is about it….more later….
February 6th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday but the tooth hurt like crazy last night and that was not fun….but, it only hurts a little this morning so I’m hopeful it will be okay today…slept okay last night but feel a little slow this morning and it is my fault…didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks the same…need to just kind of relax today since my stomach is burned out from the ibuprofen from yesterday…I may do some laundry and other chores this morning but nothing too heavy….not much to do today…pool, of course, but not much more than that….T is having some medical procedures done this morning and I am a little consumed with that so that will be my focus today…more later….
