November marches on… and, at least for the last week or so, it feels a bit like it’s marching right over the top of yours truly. I’ve been sick……
Usually I’m a fairly healthy person. Ordinarily I shrug off exposure to things that leave others well and completely miserable, but…. when something does finally get a hold on me, it’s also just as vicious in it’s effects as anything you can imagine. I’ve been wrestling with one of those lately, and it’s added to my streak of bad luck here at the ol’ Litterbox, posting wise.
The doctor tells me it’s a “stomach bug”… something viral that just insists on running it’s own course. As it does that… it’s had me vomiting, suffering terrible diarrhea, and generally feeling achy and crappy all over. Naturally I’m not at work…. but trust me, I’m not doing much else these days either, except trying to sleep and keep something…. anything… in my stomach.
Here, on day 6, I’m feeling much better…. able to spend more than a few minutes out of bed (without my head in a bucket or my miserable butt on the toilet…) at a time…. and so I figured I’d check in and make a posting just to let people know I’m still very much alive and kicking and hoping to be back to my cheerful…. and normally healthy…. self soon with some new Reviews.
So… till then, may you all get your flu shots, eat well, and keep yourselves healthy and “Meow, meow for now”….
That’s a real bummer!! I certainly hope you get well soon, Kat-girl. 6 day flus are no laughing matter!!
I am much better now… I haven’t vomited since Thursday night and the diarrhea is completely gone. I’m rather happy about that… even if I am still achy and terribly sore. I must have really did a number on my abdominal muscles, as I’m really tender there even today.
Went to work today and it wasn’t tooo bad. Hoping it’s just an ugly memory now.
My stomach hurts but that’s because I ate too much pizza and pita bread tonight.
It just tasted too nice.
Oooh, rats. I hope you feel better soon. I haven’t had a stomach thing like that in about 30 years. I haven’t forgotten how horrid it is though. If you want to smile a bit, go check out our blog. We have a new member of the family.
aw
Feel better!
Sorry to hear this
Odaijini as the Japanese said, get well soon.
That cats photo is really cute.
I’m definitely back to my old self… It’s been a few days since my last symptoms faded away. Luckily, Carolyn seems to have been spared this nasty bug. She took care of me at my worst and I thought for certain she’d catch it too. Thankfully nothing like that has happened.
Good I’m glad you’re feeling much better. It’s nice to have someone to pamper you. My compliments to Carolyn.
Now I’m off to read your latest review.
I guess it too a month and a half to get over here.
I’ve just come off a week’s “worth” of stomach bug and… it’s… not.. fun. Not fun at all. Fortunately I got well enough for new year’s eve so that was alright.
Ouch!!
So sorry to hear that nasty bug went looking for you too. It’s made me simply miserable for about a week when it got it’s grip on me as well. Still, I’m glad New Years was clear for you… I just hate being sick on a holiday.
Thanks! I hate that too! (let’s not talk about last Halloween night!! It got killed off by a migraine).
