Lingering sickness . . .

This post will include my rantings and ravings, so if you don't want to hear/read me complain, then don't continue reading. I will try and keep my perspective though . . .

This weekend was overall great. I didn't have to do much cooking (like at all) and I believe the in-laws had a good time catching up with us and my family. We had a huge group Sat. afternoon for lunch, 15 people. Some took a walk, my once removed aunt (I think) by marriage and I chatted about our lives and philosophies, then we all played Kinect and ate grilled cheese and other various merriments till 10.

Now all this was great, except I spent the whole weekend having trouble swallowing without it being painful and just generally feeling like it was too much effort to move. Last night I started feeling the chills and aches and didn't have the energy to play or do anything but just sit and watch. This morning I felt better, but still have the throat that's perpetually on fire and now I have a headache. So, although I'm not deathly ill or throwing up, I'm getting really really tired of being mildly sick for the last week. I can't shake it. I've been sleeping at least 8 hours, drinking tons of water, eating cough drops, you name it, but it just won't go completely away! Arrrrrrrrrrgh!!!

I think I will go wallow in self pity and go take a scalding bath that will only give me temporary relief and happiness, but that's better than nothing I suppose.

Can't wait to be better! :(
