So this morning I woke up and was somewhat happy that I didnt get yet another fever over night. The last little while I have been waking up just soaking wet in the morning. I am sure that my body has been trying to fight something crazy, and maybe now after a few good shots of overheating itself..it might be finally passing.
I havent had this sort of sickness in a real long time(if ever). Usually I am not one to get any kind of flu or fever of this sort, so its just sort of strange. So it has taken alot out of me to be honest.
As I mentioned I have been really weak..and just depressed cause of the timing of this whole thing.
I think I should be good by Monday to get myself back into things normally again. My chest is not as congested anymore...however I do not still feel like "myself" yet, so this is why I am going to make myself take the rest of the week off to just do nothing.
When you have a family especially young children that depend on you, nothing else really matters or comes first. You need to be well for them. That is the bottom line. I mean things may come and go in life, even special opportunities that you might lose out on, but your kids will always be there...at least you hope and we have to always remember what is truely most important.
I realize now that time is ticking, and those people will actually be coming now or at least scheduled to in just a mere few weeks..but its just not worth making myself or anyone more sick over than you already might be. If its meant to work out it will..and if not...hey, I have the rest of my life to hopefully do other things that may come up. I am hoping that this opprotunity will not be the last.
So, a friend of mine sent me that post up on top via email, knowing that I have been so down about this whole thing lately...and thought it was something nice to share with all of you cause we can all relate to it in some way.
I in the meantime am just trying to get back to my normal self again. Friends have been worried wondering what I caught and if it was this H1N1 thing going around. Honestly, it wouldnt surprise me cause it took alot out of me I tell you. But I havent gone to get checked either. I just know they will just tell me ..stay home..drink lots of liquids...blah blah...so to me its pointless (not like they will give me any magic pill)
I, like many others are well aware of it going around, and I am no doctor but I do know this is just one those things you have to just keep your eye on, take your meds..get lots of rest..and if it gets too much even still, then fine go..but if I can handle it, then I wont.
Not really impressesd with our medical system anymore myself. Through experience, most of the time its just a long waiting period that we endure and even at that we even sometimes are lucky enough to leave with something that we didnt even have before going in there in the first place. Not to mention usually being told after HOURS of waiting that you just have a "virus" have a nice day. Thanks for that. I just wasted all my afternoon to hear that??? LOL
So I just basically have been having lots and lots of rest..keeping warm...drinking alot of mild tea with freshly squeezed lemon juice, and raw honey...having my chicken noodle soups..and lounging:)
Remembering to wash hands all the time, and wash surfaces when I can, and thats the best anyone can do.
Well, I hope everyone is doing real well. I cannot wait to be back. (and you can bet i will be friends) ;-)
talk soon
