Hello Friends,
I just wanted to pop on real quick and explain where I've been. What started out as a scratchy throat last Sunday developed into a full blown flu, the worst I've ever had (fever, chills, body aches, headache...tis the season!). I don't think I've ever been that sick in my entire life. This one really knocked me out. I have been doing an awful lot lately and I think my body just slammed on the brakes.
Well, that flu has developed into pneumonia. The good news is that I did see my doctor and I'm now on two antibiotics and a prescription cough pill and am finally (after 9 long days) starting to feel better. I see light at the end of this tunnel. I've been in bed most of the time and basically quarantining in my bedroom because I don't want anyone in my family to catch to this beast. So far so good (knock wood!!).
The most interesting part of this week is that during my fever haze, I decided it would be a good idea to host Thanksgiving. It will be an even better idea if I ever get out of this bed. At least it's giving me something to think about while I'm lying here :)
Thank you, friends. I'll be back when I'm feeling better. Hopefully sooner than later.

Oh, you poor dear. I hate you are so sick. Hoping the meds make you well really soon. After all, you have to prepare for Thanksgiving. Amazing what crazy ideas you'll come up with under fever!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are on the mend and feeling better soon. 9 days is a long time to be sick. Take good care of yourself and REST!!
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying your favorite tea and Hallmark movies as you rest in bed! Take good care! I hope you feel better very soon! Jean
ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm sorry to hear you have been sick. Praying you are all better very soon. Take care of yourself and get lots of rest as that's when your body heals. Thinking of you, dear friend. I hope you are watching lots of feel-good Hallmark movies!❤️
ReplyDeleteOh no! Sorry you've been so sick! But hosting Thanksgiving? Yikes :) I had to chuckle at that :) The things we do to ourselves :) I don't cook turkeys, but I did buy a pre-cooked turkey breast the other day, so I feel somewhat ahead of the game already :) I hope today is a great day for you.
ReplyDeleteOh dear Danielle! So sorry to hear you've been feeling so crappy. That exact same flu has hit 2 people I know and one had to have 2 different kinds of antibiotics also. Geesh! I sure hope you fully kick it soon and feel better. And I hope you don't put too much pressure on yourself about Thanksgiving. Season of gratitude above all and I have no doubt how much you're appreciated beyond cooking a dozen different dishes. Lol
ReplyDeleteFeel better and blessings to you always. xoxo🙏🏻💗
