Sickness

One thing that I don’t like about the fall and winter months is the amount of illness that goes around. I am still looking for a job but right now have been thankful for not having one the past 2 weeks. Last week I had the nasty stomach bug that was going around and Jason had it too. Thankfully Olivia did not get it which was a blessing in disguise for us. I didn’t want her to worry about the vomiting and all that fun stuff (not). I thought that I would have lost the weight but unfortunately I didn’t. 🙁 Boo! Then last weekend I started off with a bad ear ache that just wouldn’t go away. I thought maybe it was the weather changing so I didn’t do anything about it. During the first half of the week I noticed I had more and more reactions causing me to feel worse. Finally on Thursday after my nuclear scan was finished I had made an appointment to get seen by the doctor. I went and found out that not only do I have a severe sinus infection, I have severe bronchitis too. I even had to do a breathing treatment as well which is not my favorite but helped to a certain degree. I was put on Prednisone and was also put on augmentin. Both are very strong doses and my lungs right now feel like they are going to come out of my chest. They hurt so bad when I am breathing and when I cough it hurts even worse. I pray Olivia doesn’t get it because she will be miserable. I’m thankful for Jason who is taking care of me and am thankful that I am able to be at home this weekend resting up. Catching up on blogging and reviews and catching up on sleep. So here is to getting well and feeling better soon. I have 2 movies to watch this weekend and look forward to it.

One other thing that has been nice is playing on my new iPad. Jason went ahead and gave me my Christmas gift after finding out I was sick and not feeling well. I have to download some things and upload some books onto it. I can’t wait either! It’s going to be great to have. I’m thinking about giving my kindle to Olivia since she loves to read! Jason’s present it going to ship out on November 16th which he is getting the iPhone 5! He’s paying for half of it because he really wanted the 5 and not the 4s. So in June I will be getting the iPhone 5 in white of course! 🙂 Can’t wait either!

  • The amount of illness that has been going around in winter – Ooh, there's a lot of illness going around, all right! Earache, ringworm, dengue, you name it! Man, what are we gonna do with all this? It wasn't this bad 20 years ago! 🙁
