Cootie-rific

Friday was a me day. I did fun things like playing outside with Jaxon. I ate healthy, but the only exercise I got in was in a fun way...my favorite way.

Saturday, however, was a different story. I had plans of yard work and a walk around the block. Saturday was squashed by cruddy little germs. I started the day with a dry cough. I felt fine, but there was that cough every so often. As the day moved forward, so did the germs. I started aching, and as this progressed to a ridiculously uncomfortable degree of ache I  began to get the chills. Yep, I had a fever too. My head was killing me and my ibuprofen was doing me no favors. I chose to counter attack with some acetaminophen, which seemed to do the trick. My lungs...that was a different story. My lungs were hurting and aching so bad. I was using my inhaler every couple of hours to tame the cough and pain.

Sunday, a day of hope for feeling better. I don't feel hardly any ache (still going to take some meds to keep it at bay though), but my lungs still hurt and I am still coughing up the crud. I really wanted to try for a walk around the block, but after yesterdays heavy breathing from something as simple as walking DOWN the stairs, I think that isn't a possibility today. I suppose another day of rest is in order if I'm going to get a workout or walk in tomorrow.
