It has been a tough week. I have been sick with a cold, fever, and now the lingering annoying cough that keeps me awake at night. It's been frustrating to say the least. I don't know about you guys, but I have zero patience for being unwell, I don't like laying around, I don't like having no energy or feeling sick, so I am just praying that this goes away fast.
I am so tired this morning, got very little sleep last night due to the constant coughing. My chest hurts, my throat hurts from the constant hacking. Goodness!
But anyway, I needed to come in and just pick the winner to the blogiversary giveaway, which I haven't had a chance to do yet, and also just share a little of what I've been doing this past week, which has been quite minimal due to the crud I have.
As a woman, whether you are sick or not, life goes on and there are things that need to be done. On Monday night I dragged myself around the kitchen while dealing with body aches and a fever that hit me out of nowhere. I made dinner for the boys, got the dishwasher loaded and ready to go, set the table for them, set out the tupperware for leftovers and left instructions on what to do.
I did not eat dinner, I just couldn't bring myself to eat or even sit at the table. I got into the shower, took my cold medicine and went to bed. I think of all the symptoms of a cold, the sore throat and the fever aches are the worst for me.
I have moved around the house slowly, doing what needs to be done, washing laundry, vacuuming, cleaning, cooking and ironing, always with my hot cup of tea next to me.
As the weather heats up and spring starts to show itself here and there, I am already enjoying fresh air, letting laundry dry naturally and not using the dryer as much. Especially when it comes to sheets or comforters, I like to let them dry overnight, and Elliott quite enjoys his little forts where he hides underneath and springs out as anyone walks by.
I haven't done much reading, much tv watching much of anything actually. I'm feeling frustrated and beyond tired of sitting in bed but I think we need to listen to our bodies and do what is needed. I would be lying if I didn't say that I am so ready to feel 100% better though.
Anyway, I know there's not much to share but what little I did manage to get, I wanted to come in and put down in a post.
Now for the giveaway winner. I am using a random generator online. There were 16 comments, and the number that was picked was:
#11 - Great Granny Grandma
I will be contacting her shortly. Congratulations!
Alright my friends, I wish I had more to share, but that is it for me. I am feeling exhausted just sitting here at the computer, so back to bed I go, hopefully to get some sleep.
Have a wonderful blessed Thursday ♥
