Oh Sick, sick, sick

I've been sick all weekend, it started Friday with a sore throat but I drugged myself and went to our friends 25th wedding anniversary party on Saturday. I drank quite a bit as well so that the pain was barely noticeable. Oh but Sunday, the pain ... the worst sore throat I have ever had. Every four hours more drugs, I've been alternating between Advil and Tylenol and it barely masks the pain. I would give almost anything not to have a sore throat any more. The only good thing is that I seem to have temporarily overcome my fear of swallowing pills, I just keep thinking "you'll be just fine, this medicine will make you feel so much better" swallow.

Al the Man took Camakazie off to daycare this morning, they left almost an hour ago already, Cam was so excited to be driving in Daddy's car and Matt and I are just hanging out waiting for 9:00 a.m. so we can leave for school; then I'll have the rest of the day to myself to sleep, rest and hopefully relax. No work for me today, I work with old folks and they just don't need this kind of sickness. Now back to my hot water, lemon and honey.

Hope you are having a better day.

I wasn't thinking when I wrote that comment. Now I've had two cups of coffee and my wickedness is back.
Gee Cori, this is YOUR day to order Al the man around - tell him to bring you some tea, some chocolate biscuits, bath you, massage you, clean the house for you, iron the undies for you (why not?) - boy, you have all the reasons to order him around today, please do so! :)
