| Sunset this weekend |
I’m not one to complain but….yesterday turned itself on it’s
little head for me and I ended up spending all day battling something
ferocious! I was having a lovely morning yesterday, minding my own business,
working on a bunch of stuff here on the computer for Rob when I was overcome by
the nasty desire to just puke my guts up. This is really not a normal occurrence
for me, I am usually known for a cast
iron tummy. It takes a really nasty
virus for me to start horking, folks.
Rob came home for lunch to find me passed out and luckily I
had leftover sandwiches from the rodeo this weekend so he didn’t have to
actually fix himself anything. I just
hate it when I don’t have things done for him because he works so hard. He kept
insisting that I should call the doctor but I thought it best to wait and see
if I was still sick today. So, after he left to go back to work, I just curled
up in the great room with my trash can and blanket and my trusty Thistle and we
spent the rest of the afternoon trying to sleep off whatever the heck this bug
is. I fear I may have caught something
from one of the little ones that was here for the bbq over the weekend. Dang
kids, gotta love em, but they sure are bug magnets, aren’t they?
I was amazed when Rob walked back in the house at 5 p.m.
that I’d slept the entire afternoon. I
could have sworn that he had just talked to me a few minutes before, that’s how
sick I felt. Luckily, I remembered that I was supposed to have puppy class and
managed to text Barb that I would be unable to make it. She texted me back and was asking me what the
weather was like. Well, yesterday
afternoon, the winds kicked up something fierce and after talking to me, she
decided it would be best to cancel class.
Trying to conduct a class in 35 mph winds would not have been easy! So,
at least we didn’t miss anything due to my being sick. Rob managed to get a
little noodle soup down me for dinner, the sweetie, before I passed out again.
The next thing I know, Rob is waking me up at 11:30 last
night, trying to get me up to bed. After a little cajoling, he finally
convinced me that I would be more comfortable upstairs and we all made it up
there. Walking up the stairs was not
fun, everything was making me very dizzy, but I eventually made it. I don’t
think I was awake more than 3 minutes up there before I was back into the
deadman’s sleeping sickness mode, though.
This morning, I’m still feeling pretty darn rocky. I took
some Compazine to hopefully stave off a repeat of yesterday. If I don’t start feeling better by noon, I
will indeed call the doc. As I said yesterday, I need bloodwork anyway, so it
wouldn’t be a big deal to go see her. I haven’t had a fever but that’s nothing
new. Fevers are a response of the immune
system and when your immune system doesn’t work right, you rarely have
them.
So, it’s back to the recliner today for me. Let’s hope this is just one of those 24 hour
bugs, which would mean I’m on the tail end of it, right? If nothing else, I sure got my beauty sleep,
I think I’ve slept 20 of the last 24 hours, already! Okay….I’ve been upright
too long trying to write this. Ya’ll have a lovely day and I’ll talk to you on
the other side of this!
