2009The One With The Stupid Swine Flu

Despite being dreadfully sick for about a week now, the 365 has continued.
days thirty three through forty

It hit me the 9th, and then came a heavy fever for the next three days, extreme muscle aches, dry cough, runny nose, and I’m sure you don’t need any extra info.

Little did I know… I’d be stuck in these clothes for the next four days.

I hate this stuff. I don’t understand why people drink stuff that makes their mouth pucker like this.

Mmm, oatmeal. At this point I was wondering if I could still taste anything at all.

Tom’s mom brought over homemade sickie soup, veggie stew, Irish soda bread, artisan bread (already sliced), fresh fruit, and a sick tray.

I spent a good hour in the tub trying to loosen the rat’s nest that was my hair and then another hour outside trying to comb it. A week of being sick really did a number on my head. I decided after that adventure that any time sickness happened, hair would immediately go into braids.


The last of the 946 ml pure cranberry juice from concentrate.
Diluted that means I drank I don’t want to know how many glasses.

Cranberry juice is the BEST!
Also, I’m really glad to hear you’re feeling better. Or, at least well enough to update us all

You drank a whole liter?! God! That’s a true punishment. I’m so happy I can comment, usually I can’t get this site to load.
Also, you’re demonstrating true dedication by keeping up with the 365 even when sick. …and Brendan just caught me writing here and not my paper.

Ugh, how awful. I hope you are feeling better now.
I love cranberry juice. I like most things that might make my mouth pucker like that!

Cranberry Juice is a wonder though. We’re getting over the sick here as well. And, Oh I know about the rats nest hair!
