Here I sit with a sore nose, stuffed ears and aching ribs - all from fours days of blowing my nose and coughing violently.  I felt it coming on Tuesday afternoon.  Wednesday morning at 3 am I called my boss to say I was staying home.  I really hoped one day of rest would do it and it felt like it almost did.  Thursday wasn't too bad, but yesterday was really, really terrible.  I had to go to work because I had two file reviews coming in and the other person who could have done them was leaving at noon.  I struggled through the day with my pockets full of kleenex and a cup of water with me at all time.  I had to have a sip of water after I'd had the "eyes popping out of my eye" kind of coughing fit or I couldn't talk.  I'm sure more than one person wondered if they should call 911. 

I'm trying to take it easy today, but, I have so much stuff to do.  I still need to clean[livejournal.com profile] dbubley 's house and I have laundry and the kitchen and dining room table really need a good cleaning.  Pippin would love some attention and I really need to work with her before the next class on Tuesday night.  Or I could just go back to bed with[livejournal.com profile] stonebender until he is ready to get up.   Which will probably be real soon because I'll probably have a marathon coughing session just after I lay down.

As far as I'm concerned, you could whine nonstop for six months and you wouldn't be overdoing your quota. And I'd listen.

So sorry you caught the cold from Hell. It was going around at work but so far I haven't gotten it. Keeping fingers crossed I don't get it. I am enjoying feeling normal for the first time in years. I want it to stay that way. Hope you are feeling better soon.
