Cold

I caught a cold..a sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, ache all over, headache kinda cold. I have taken up residence on the couch.  I stayed in my jammies all day yesterday. I watched old movies..never all of them just bits and pieces in between sleeps.  I had my stupid flu shot so it cannot be the flu can it?  Jen and Noah both had a cold a week ago when they were here..I guess they must have shared.

Chance comes to check on me every so often, shoving his cold wet nose into my face ..checking on me to make sure I am still breathing. I have a bit of a temperature so hopefully whatever it is will burn itself out.  I went to sauna to kill all the extra germs.

I am sure I will be over this in a day or two..or three:)

Love your little sauna hut!

DJan said...

You just made me realize how seldom you do get sick. Your hardy constitution seems to keep these away, but sometimes we do catch these darn things. Get well soon! You're doing all the right things.

Oh, I'm so sorry you caught a bug! Carry on with the couch duty and the sauna is good, too. Chance will check on you. I bet FarGuy will, too. ;) I hope you are better very soon.

I hope you're feeling better real soon.

I, too, had forgotten about your sauna. So sorry you feel bad and hope you get better soon. Chance is a good nurse.

Nothing makes you feel worse than a nasty cold, and it's so hard to drum up a lot of sympathy. My kids say "Oh for pete's sake, it's just a cold, or get over it" But I sympathize with you. Take good care.

Sorry to hear your down with a rotten cold ! I have never had the Flu shot but others that I know do always get sick after getting it ! Hope you feel better soon ! Try to have a good day and R&R .

Karen said...

Oh I can relate! I rarely get colds, and hardly ever like this one, but this has been a doozy. I'm on day 12 right now, and it ain't gone yet:(

Hubby and I are still getting over the colds we came down with a week or more ago.
Hope you get well, soon, and hope your hubby doesn't catch it!

Terry and Linda said...

A day on the couch, snoozing, sounds like the perfect antidote! I hope you feel better soon!
A sauna? Did you jump out and roll in the snow, too?

Leilani Schuck Weatherington said...

I heard a report on the radio on Sunday that it is possible to have two colds at once (two different viruses at the same time). Doesn't that sound like fun? Love the picture of Chance on your banner. Looks like he is stalking something.

A yukky winter cold. I see your footprints in the snow going to the sauna. Stay cozy and get better.

carolina nana said...

Probably more like a week or so it you have the same blasted head cold I had a couple weeks ago. Good luck and feel better soon.

My Other Best Friend said...

I wish you a speedy recovery!

Hi Connie, I am just catching up on blog reading and hope you are feeling better by now. Having a cold is not fun at all, but the lazing in Jammie's and watching old movies parts are enjoyable.

Nope no rolling in the snow:)

A sauna? That's really neat! They're supposed to be very good for circulation and more aren't they? My Mother was a nurse and when she was done with her bath she would run cold water in...she said it was good for circulation. I've never done that as I like my hot baths to keep me that way! LOL!
I hope you feel better, it's terrible to feel sick...I hope Chance and Far Guy are taking good care of you.

Red said...

You have sauna???How about some sauna posts?
Hope your recovery is speedy. We don't want you to take too long or you might get grumpy!

The sauna for you and the pool for me! I go every morning to an indoor, heated pool about 10 miles from my house. It is worth 10 times the $35 monthly fee as I rarely get sick and if I do, it never lasts more than 1 swim. Find what fits you and enjoy!!
