Still sick

I am still rather sick.  My throat still hurts although it isn't extreme, so that is good.  I am able to swallow without too much pain.  The over the counter medicines do help with that.  In about 10 minutes I can take some pain medicine.  I pick up my antibiotic after 5, which I am looking forward to because it should help a lot with the throat and the nose and eyes.  My eyes aren't watering like they were yesterday, although they are as red as yesterday and it looks quite funny.  I am glad about the fact they aren't watering so much today.

I have a lot to work on next week and I think with Maia and Tillie's help I will accomplish a lot.  I just need some help, that's all.  I don't see the point of not admitting when I need it and right now I do.  So they are coming on Monday to help with the State of Michigan stuff and the bankruptcy stuff.  I can't wait until this is all finished and taken care of and I don't have to think about it anymore!  Yeah!  Won't that be nice?  I think so.

I hope to talk to Richard today to see how he is doing.  I know he is working super hard right now for his family.  The kids, I think, are doing well.  I haven't seen them in 2 years though.  It seems like forever since I have last seen them.  I hope to see them at Christmas at least.  It feels like so far away from now to me though, even though it is only less than 2 months.  What can I say?  I have no concept of time right now because of this cold and everything that has been happening.

I think I am going to go and lay back down.  I am simply exhausted and can't seem to stay awake much longer.  I don't care if I sleep the day away as long as I get my medicine after 5, that is all that is important.  I am sure tomorrow will be a better day for this!

I am missing mom.  I can't say if it is more than usual or not, but I am missing her.  I am, however, glad I can't pass this cold to her as she was a horrible patient when she had a cold the last few years.  The tough little lady would turn into someone I never recognized.  She is where there is no sickness or anything like that.  I just wish she were here with me.

I do hope this finds you doing well and healthy, unlike me.  I hope you do not have a fall cold and that you are enjoying the weather whatever it is at your place!

  2. Make sure and set your alarm clock, or you might sleep the day away. That is what I always do when I am sick! You want to start the antibiotic as soon as possible. I can't believe they made you wait this long!
    You will ALWAYS miss your mom. I do. And it's been two years. There's so much that has happened since then that I want to tell her about, but can't. Your mom and my mom are probably up in Heaven, sittin' on a cloud, drinking a tropical drink (one with the umbrella in it), watching all of us down here trudge around.
    I hope you feel better soon!
    Hugs,
    Missy
