You Give me Fever!

I haven't felt well the last few days. I've had major sinus issues, especially at night when I'm laying down and have just felt achy. Last night, sometime after I went to bed, my throat started hurting. I tossed and turned between midnight (when I went to sleep) and around 5:30 this morning. I was so uncomfortable. My throat was killing me, I was shivering under the covers and I couldn't breathe through my nose.

I got up to use the bathroom and get a drink of water. I couldn't find any tylenol upstairs anywhere, and I simply didn't have the energy to walk downstairs to find it and come back up to bed. So what did I do? I laid there and suffered for 2 more hours. I couldn't find a comfortable position to lay in and I was burning up with a fever.

Finally I fell back asleep for around 30 minutes until my son woke up. Guru went and got him and then went and got me tylenol. I got the medicine in me and went back to sleep and couldn't make myself get up. I finally got up somewhere around 11:00. Guru complained that he didn't get to sleep in on his day off and called me lazy or ridiculous or something of the sort for not going to get myself tylenol when I got up to go to the bathroom. Whatever, if that's what you want to call it, then, yes that's what I was being. I just couldn't.

When I did get up, I was feeling slightly better. My fever was gone, but my throat still hurt. It still does. I hope it isn't strep! I seem to get it every year. I've been taking tylenol all day.

I'm hoping to make it to a women's Bible study at my church in the morning. I missed the first week of the study because I wasn't originally planning on attending it. A friend of mine went last week and said it seemed like it was going to be a really good study. So I found the book (practically brand new) at amazon.com for a penny!! That came in the mail this week so I'm all set to go. I just hope that I don't have another night like last night. The study starts at 9:30, so I need to get moving after getting the girls on the bus in the morning.

So, that means I should stop blogging and get to bed. I'll fill you in later on what the study is all about. It is definitely something I think I should benefit from (at least I hope I do!).
