Cough-hack-wheeze

[smeddley]

Not feeling any better. But at least I'm feeling crappy in a different way, so it's not getting old. To recap: it started with a sore throat, moved to a runny nose, then progressed to incredible sinus pressure and pain, developed into a hacking cough and violent sneezing, and has now settled into sticky chest congestion (still have a cough, but not as bad and the sticky snot refuses to come up, so I'm also all squeaky and hoarse when I try to talk, and my nose is still both runny and stuffy - how, I do not know - but there's not the blinding pain and pressure).

Basically, sucks to be me. I know, wah, wah wah. Anyway, I'm still going to try to get some stuff accomplished today this weekend. And here it is:

* Finish up e-mail to A. with cheat-sheet
* Clean off the top of my desk
* Find Chapter 8 - outlook mailbox? Did it get downloaded? Copy to jump drive
* Find a trash can to put in my office
* Finish going through last of the magazines (tear out/scan what I want to save)
* Watch at least half of Lost: Season 3 (yay, I finally got it from the library!)
* Clean out washing machine (oh, there's a story), do a few loads of laundry
* Do 3 things (however small) from my to-do book

Not too bad, right? Even a person hacking up a lung should be able to do that!

Good luck! I get TO SLEEP now. Yay!

I should have done that, instead of dragging my useless carcass around all day. :/

Ugh! I got the sore throat and then the congestion, pressure and pain. So far I'm avoiding the cought and sneezing for the most part, but I suppose it's optimistic to think I won't get it.

So my sympathies to you and I hope you get well soon.

I still need to see the whole first season of Lost. Someday :D

Feel better soon!

Lost is pretty good, though it is best to watch it in large chunks - my, this feels like a deja vu comment! - because the storyline is so complex and out there. I think everyone is wondering if they'll ever wrap it up!

Good luck getting better! My hubby didn't get it as long and drawn-out as me, he got better after the sinus stage, so maybe you will, too!

I have to admire you. When it was me, I refused to do anything. It was very dramatic.

I'm a'prayin' for you. Feel better.

I try not to be too dramatic, but I can't deny I've pulled the 'but I'm dying' card once or twice... ;) And I'm certainly not really getting much done. It's such a drain being sick!

Hope you feel better soon!

Man, I hope so! I can't take this much longer. o.O

Oh dear! I hope you are feeling better soon, it's aaaallllmost Spring, and it would be horribly unfair to be miserable, just as the weather starts to cooperate.

We just took the dog for a walk and it started snowing. Snowing!

Granted, it won't stick, it's not cold enough. But still! Snowing! AGAIN!
