I wish I could say I've finished my mom's table runner or that I've been sewing at all. But this guy looks like how I feel and it's been all I can do to drag myself to work in the morning and get the daily must-do's done. Then I drag myself back to bed … after a stop at the Dayquil/Nyquil bottles.
Am I whining? YES! Do I want pity? YES! You try being sick in a house with 3 (cave)men and you'd be sucking up for some sick pity too. ;-) I even had to drag out the crock pot and make my own turkey soup from the Christmas Day turkey leftovers today. Wahhhh. But it felt so nice and warm going down my sore throat it was (almost) worth having to do it myself.
I hope I'm better by the time 2010 rolls in so I can take good advantage of my days off. If not, toast the bubbly for me, will you?
Oh, dear!
ReplyDeleteSorry you got hit with the bug.
Does anyone else in the house have it? Or just the hard-working mom?
Get well soon. Wish I lived closer so I could send you some soup!

Oh that sucks!! You must have upset the sewing gods by selfishly sewing for yourself before Christmas. ;) You have plenty of pity from me, but sorry, no hugs. I don't want to catch it. I have my limits you know. :)
ReplyDeleteGet well soon!! And order those men to look after you.
Poor you! Stay snuggled up in bed, drink fluids and sleep lots.
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing!! I hope you have a good book to curl up with. Let those cave men fend for themselves!! I hope you're better soon.
ReplyDeleteAh so sorry your not feeling well.
ReplyDeleteHope it doesn't last long and you feel better soon!
..oops that should be you're... :)
ReplyDeleteOh dear, so sorry.I do live within an hour or so - but I accidentally let my license expire (Christmas birthdays can get hectic) and can't renew until Monday - blah - so I can't even drive to you. Take care - it can turn nasty fast.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope you feel better really fast. I felt horrid for 3 weeks and puny for 2 more. The sore throat was AWFUL. I wish I was near too, and I'd bring you some yummy soup!
ReplyDeleteDitto to what Angie A says. I have had this crud off and on for a month. I hope yours is a shorter version. I can't recommend medical care as a shot and two rounds of medicine didn't help at all. Cavemen for nurses? -you seriously deserve the affection to be poured out from your many blog fans. Hope you get better fast. mssewcrazy
ReplyDeleteBoo on your family for not taking care of you! I'm so sorry you're sick. Get well soon.
ReplyDeleteShucks! feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteI would say it would serve the "cavemen" right by having you go through the silverware drawer and licking all the utensils so THEY get it, but with your luck you would be well by then so you would have to take care of THEM! I don't think the sewing machines would drown out the whining!
ReplyDeleteSorry you are sick--i hope you get over it soon!
Boo on your cavemen! Time to remind them that if Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. Hope you are feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you are feeling so badly. It's never fun being sick but being sick over the holidays is even worse. Feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteSorry you're not feeling well and I hope you're better soon. Ditto what Gigi said: get those men in your house to help out!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh girl, I know how you feel. Get better soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you Debbie. Yesterday was the first day since Saturday that I've been out of bed/off the couch and lo and behold, I think I've over done it! Back to bed with me and here's to hoping we're both better soon!
ReplyDeleteHope you are up and at 'em very soon. I've had a very bad cold that seems to get better only to come right back since Thanksgiving. Ugh!!!
ReplyDeleteOh dear, you poor thing. :( Being sick is miserable and I always feel really sorry for myself that I live alone and have to go to the store myself for soup. Having able bodied people there who could do it but won't would be much worse! I hope you feel better soon and that your soup has magical healing properties for you and tastes like shame to the men of the house (as in Like Water For Chocolate).
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're feeling bad. I got sick on Christmas day and it's gotten worse each day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a waste of vacation days! Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

in case you want to go somewhere else for a change.
Best!
Bummer! Hope you get to feeling better soon and that it doesn't drag on.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I hope you and yours have a wonderful New Year!
Soooo sorry you are sick. Have you neglected your sons' training for future life?! They are there to serve their female queen (you, in this case). Their future partners will thank you! Get well soon, and Happy New Year!
