Short Blog - Sick all Week

 Shiloh, IL (Hi 53  Lo 32)

This is a lousy week. I started not feeling quite right on Sunday, but didn't think much about it since the weather was changing quite a bit this week.  On Monday night I didn't sleep at all because I couldn't breathe and Tuesday morning I could barely move my head and was stuffy. I know from experience I had a good head cold. I also had a massage later Tuesday afternoon so called right away to tell them to cancel.  I found out I didn't have a voice so whispered. I'm so glad they understood me. 

So, all week I was taking all kinds of meds for my cold and still not able to move much till later on Thursday afternoon when my headache got better but still a fever of 100.7. I didn't go to work on Thursday. Friday morning, the fever dropped to my normal 97.8, but back up to 98.9 by Friday night.  I decided I'd take a chance and go to Dollar General and get some much needed groceries before the rains and storms come this next week. By the time I got home I could do nothing else but sit in the chair before putting everything away. I was able to get on the North Carolina zoom call that's weekly with friends, but didn't do anything else. 

There's nothing planned except zoom classes and meeting this next week. I'm hoping to get my strength back and be ready for the week before Christmas stuff that I have planned. At least now I'm feeling more human, but not real strong, yet. So far fever is back to my normal and staying there. I'm finally on the mend. (I do not have Covid, just a cold. The last time I had a cold was 2016 after knee surgery)
