Getting better
For a few days now, I’ve been feeling the dreaded claws of illness tightening their grip on my immune system. In fact, by yesterday I wondered if the illness was winning, as I found myself suffering on the couch with a fever of 39.1°c (102+° f) and a niggly headache. But, 12 hours of sleep later, today I seem to be winning.
I am still fighting off whatever this may be, and am still hoping that it doesn’t develop into a full-on cold (or other illness). But at least I’m feeling better today than I did yesterday.
Of course, being a tad ill has not helped me to get over the down in the dumps feelings I’ve been dealing with since New Year’s Day, but at least it’s not made it worse. In fact, in some ways, it’s made me feel better because I get to sit around and sulk in my pyjamas without feeling bad about it!
And, to get over (or stave off) being sick, I’ve gotten myself some supplies: Crisps and dip and cookies and orange juice and fresh fruits and veggies. Oh, and some pretty daffodils to look at. Or at least I hope they’ll be pretty once they bloom.
So, now I’m just sitting on the couch eating yummy food, hydrating lots and lots, watching whatever looks interesting on iPlayer, and swirling. I hope by the end of the weekend I’ll have not only finally won the battle of this cold, but that I manage to win the battle of the sadness, too!
Get well soon Miss Awesome xx
I’m rooting for you! Down with sickness! Down with sadness! Gooooo Frances!
