You Know You're *Really* Sick When . . .

* You can't muster the energy to get out of bed. For days.

* Sitting upright to get on the laptop for a few minutes is a chore you just can't tackle.

* Your inbox overflows, and you don't even have the energy to care.

* You actually wish you could stand to do laundry and dishes because you {gasp!} miss them.

* The dance team that your sister coaches is AWESOME this year, and you can't even make it to the state competition to attend :(

* You otherwise cannot stand the thought of an afternoon nap, but now can't keep your eyes open to avoid one.

* You completely neglect your bloggy friends even during super fun parties you swore you'd "attend". Sigh.

* You can't even properly take care of your own children. Talk about feeling like a horrible mom. I used to kind of chuckle when moms would talk about getting a cold and having to send their kids to the grandparents so they could rest. Secretly I'd kind of roll my eyes and think "good grief, it's a cold. And you can't even take care of your children?" Never folks. Never again will I judge. Ever.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, I'm feeling a bit better today. I can get up off the couch now, hooray! I will try to post soon about the craftiness that went on here last week.

Have a great weekend!

Oh no! You must have been in bad shape. I'm glad you're on the mend, but take it easy you don't want to relapse.

Oh man! That stinks! You know that mom really doesn't feel good when she can't take care of the kiddos! I hope you get to feeling better soon!

Kelli said...

Sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. Hopefully you'll feel better soon and be back to your ol self!

That's terrible! I'm so glad you are starting to feel better.

People actually get to send their kids away when they are sick? I've never heard of this!

I totally feel for you! So sorry you are so sick. I was right there just a week or so ago. I couldn't do ANYTHING. And like you said, doing laundry actually sounded appealing. I had to send Audrey off to my sister-in-laws house for the day. I couldn't function--and of course, the guilt came. I hope you are on the mend and have beautiful weather coming your way so you can have a great week!

Hi Everybody!

I've been looking to figure out a good place to start the Acai Berry free trial & was wanting to know if anybody had some thoughts on whether or not it works for weight loss? So far here is the one [url=http://blogbud.com/cgi-bin/index.pl?sitename=acaiberrydetox&item=home]article[/url] I've been able to check out that seemed realistic for what my goals are. Thoughts?

You poor thing! I hope you are feeling better by now.

I've had a cold for 8 days now but I keep dragging myself into work...probably not the best idea since what I really need is a whole lotta rest and some homemade chicken soup!
