Flu

Bet you thought a post about the flu would be about how miserable I am, huh? Nope! Thank you, Jesus, for the flu shot!

I started to get some energy again last week after resting last weekend from the radiation. I thought that was just gonna be the way it was. But Monday I felt better, worked, went to spin class since turbo kick is too bouncy (and found out one of my fav teachers teaches spin on Monday,yippee!). Tuesday went to work then Group Power (fun friends in that class), and a Wednesday worked then step class (lotsa fun friends and a favorite class.). Even stayed up til 9 each night! Thursday was a snow day. Went to my treatment in the ice but drove the rav then came home. As the day wore on, I felt kinda icky. Made the decision to cancel Homestead cause the girls were sick. Felt like poo poo. Got up and went to treatment Friday morning and had them take my temp. Normal. Went to work and felt bad, chills, exhausted,weird throat, then diarrhea. Went home. Stayed in bed all day, all night.

Today I got up and took a green tea detox bath. Got dressed. Rested.

I’ve got a good book,

my buddy,

HGTV, all the essentials.

I did get dressed and go to the store. Ran into My sweet mama there. And found this amazing item:

That’s right, lavender Vick’s! Whaaat? I have it spread all over the bottoms of my feet right now. And I made some delicious healing tea!

Recipe:

Diane’s Healing Tea (and Alexis)

Little bit o fresh ginger

Little bit o turmeric

Little bit o cider vinegar

Little bit o cinnamon

Little bit o fresh lemon juice

Lotta honey

Hot water

So I’m not miserable. I’m coughing and running a low grade temp and I’m worn out every time I get up. Ohhh but I also have fresh sheets. Guess I’m too grateful to be miserable. I’m sad I’m not at rehearsal right now for sure. And that I won’t be at TRU tomorrow. But I might even be secretly enjoying this. And Scott may actually be secretly enjoying himself too. He’s in his man cave listening to albums.
