I felt like complete crap today so now that it’s a little after 10 pm I should probably just go to bed. However, since it’s not a gastro I still have an appetite and I’m hungry (see yesterday’s post – and by the way I did make the biscuits today). I also feel like having a steaming hot cup of green tea first, especially since I just got chilled by taking the dog out for her last pee. THEN it will be bed time.

I am coughing like nobody’s business, pretty much the same way that Breanna was (and still is, but with less frequency), but I have the addition of aching legs. I was so tired and icky today that I was dreading this evening’s PPO meeting. I wanted to go but in the end I emailed in to say I was sick; it turned out there was a parent-teacher night at the high school that was going to result in two people not being there and three people besides myself were also sick. They just postponed the whole thing to next week. Thank God.

I ended up just taking a hot bath to try to get rid of the aches a bit (it worked for about half an hour), I laid on the couch to watch Criminal Minds (holy hell, I will be glued to the TV for next week’s episode let me assure you!), and now I’m going to have my tea and some Tylenol and try to get some sleep.

It’s nothing major, just a nasty cough, but I’m looking forward to having it go away, especially since Breanna’s birthday (FOUR) is on Friday.

I covered my mouth with my elbow whenever I coughed but just to be sure, go wash your hands after reading this. I’d hate to contaminate you!
