Howdy on Tuesday
Hi my OFF family:
Gee, it's noon and nobody's started the daily thread? Guess I'll jump on in.
I'm still battling this cold ... felt so bad last night I didn't even feel like going to Walgreens on the way home. Just wanted to go home, get into my jammies and under the covers. Same thing today ... unfortunately, I'm scheduled to work today. I don't feel as bad as the last time so I'll go in because it's OT and I can't resist the extra money. And I have an easy (I hope) schedule tonight. No sports. I will, however, stop by Walgreens for sudafed or something.
Judy, I didn't try the pineapple, but I did have three Clementimes last night ... citrus fruits, does that count? I do have some canned pineapple at home. Not as good as fresh, but I may try that tonight.
Not much else happening. I'm going to hop into a steamy shower and hope that will open my sinuses ... the Vicks hasn't worked yet ... maybe after the shower it will.
Have a good day.
Good afternoon Eileen and everyone.....
I really hope your night is easy tonight. You need to get more bed rest and medications. I hope you make it to Walgreen's today. That Sudafed will help so much!! I so much want you to feel better. Nothing worse then feeling lousy and having to work.
I am going to pick up some Pineapple tomorrow. I want to take it just as a precaution. I so don't want to get sick!!! Does it need to be fresh pineapple or will the canned work too???? Hey Judy????
I have been lazy today. I had a hard night sleeping so I went to bed in the wee hours and slept until 11:00 AM. I feel so behind on everything!!
I am going to try to get a load of laundry done today. It was so busy in the laundry room yesterday I gave up on it. I had them tray my lunch and I will go down and get it now. Too many are sick here. I am trying to stay away from everyone for a few more days.
Vickie....it you are traveling to take your mom home I hope and pray it wasn't too crazy a drive!! Love and prayers!
Wishing everyone a great day!!!!
Prayers for our wonderful OFF family and their families.
Lots of love and bunches of hugs to all......connie d
Perfect timing???? 
So do you feel any better yet????Judy....pineapple tasted good....I am not stuffy at all.
My pain level is at about a 12...no kidding. I just took more Flexeril and a Vicodin. I can't hardly walk to the bathroom. I am having one of my really off balance times....it started about 3 hours ago. I am shaking so bad inside and out...I can't form words well....I hate this crap!!!!
I need to go lay back down real soon.
Love you girlfriend...hugs....connie d
I will try it tonight when I get home. I got some Allegra D (12-hour ... this was all the Walgreens had, and I could only get 10 count, because that was all they had). Got some more Breathe-right strips and then ... naughty me ... scored some half-price dark chocolate kisses from the Christmas aisle. Shouldn't have but couldn't resist. I'm going to limit myself to 10 a day. It will be hard, but I can do it. (BTW, 10 a day is 2 points on WW, I believe.) Plus, dark chocolate is good for your blood pressure. In moderation, of course.
I'm just happy to get the drugs. Just took one ... chugging water and coffee now to stay awake through work.
Hello sistas!
I am sorry to be MIA the past couple of days. I am sick. I don't think it's the flu. I think it's an allergy they call cedar fever. I googled it. Has similar symptoms to the flu, but it's not as severe. I'm pretty sure that's what I have since I am not getting any sicker. I just pretty much feel lousy all the time with no energy at all.
Chris says Benny is bouncing back pretty fast. Budder still doesn't have the flu and neither does Mike. She says that she is doing "okay". She was scheduled to work today, but I told her she needed to call in sick and get more rest today if she can. For once she listened to me. Miracles never cease.
My mom is a little ticked that we are still here, but there's no way I could have made the drive to Nacogdoches today. The plan is to try for tomorrow. I sure hope I feel better. I'm really not up to a 6 hour drive right now. All I want to do is lie in bed and sleep.
Welcome to our new sistas! Sorry that I haven't welcomed each one personally, but I will try to get around to it soon. I'm just really not too coherent right now. My head is telling me to lie down again, so I think I will.
Love you all!
Vickie
