Is this my blog?
It looks kind of familiar.
Yep, I believe this is the place.
Greetings one and all. Thank you so much for all your well wishes during the past week. I gotta tell ya, I would not wish this flu on anyone. Well, maybe on an ex-husband or two, but not on any of you.
I did not go to the
doctor. I decided to treat myself, it's just the flu after all. I sent a friend to the herbal/natural foods shop to find every remedy she could to knock this crap out of me. Click on this photo and take a close look. Along with what remedies I already had (do expiration dates really matter?), this is how my side table has looked for the past week. Trust me, I have tried every combination imaginable. In fact, I think I may have hallucinated a time or two. Now, if I can just figure out which combination brought on the colors. Weeeeeeee.Aside from the fever-coughing-sneezing-body-aching flu symptoms, I have determined a new mattress is definitely in order. Good grief, I think I have flipped it 3 times just trying to find the right side and the right end to make myself comfortable. And blankets. At one time I had five blankets piled-up on me. Maybe if I hadn't been watching the Olympics I wouldn't have been so frickin' cold. Brrrrrrrr.
Did I mention no appetite? I haven't weighed myself, but by the way my pajama pants are fitting, this flu has caused me to drop at least 10 pounds. Yippee, I have finally dropped the last of that baby weight I've been carrying around for the past 33 years. There is a god!
Okay, I think it's time to return to the land of la-la. I just wanted you all to know that I am alive and feeling better. Thank you again for stopping in and checking on me. I hope to see you again tomorrow.
Yay! She blogs!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it's kicked your butt when there are so many other more "deserving" butts out there!
Just one tip: if you see a bright light at the end of a tunnel?
DON'T GO THERE!
hee hee
{hugs}
This thing's making the rounds. Very kind of you to share. Glad you're on the up and up.
ReplyDeleteYea! She's back. She's back!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are feeling better. BlogLand isn't the same without you.
Yay!!!! again here!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are getting better!!!
oh its swine flu! dont breathe on my blog please...
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are up and feeling better - gosh, sassy AND thinner - are we ready for this???? haha! Now mama TOLD you take vitamin D-3 this winter - did you listen????
ReplyDeleteI prefer the poverty and stress diet myself, but whatever works for you. Glad you're back among the land of the living.
ReplyDeleteHey! So glad you are feeling better!
ReplyDeleteHey there, glad you're feeling better again!
ReplyDeleteHmmm... you discovered the Flu Diet, aye? I've been on that one before. It's a crappy way to lose weight, but as long as you're happy. :-)
I enlarged the picture of your remedies and saw that the spoon looked like it had just been used, recently. I could see the sticky- licky marks on it. Eeegads! LOL
Cheers my Dear, I'm very glad to hear that you're doing better!
ReplyDeleteGood to have you back. I was having withdrawal symptoms!
ReplyDeleteNo, expiration dates only mean the drugs full power is diminished. I think the rule is to 'Double the dosage for every six months past the date.'
(I just made that up! Sounds official though, doesn't it?)
Welcome back.
Glad you are better. Isn't the flu great? Seriously, losing weight and not having doing do a damn thing but lay in bed and sweat to do it. Wonderful stuff that flu.
ReplyDeleteI felt bad for you. I'm so glad you're feeling better and back blogging. The collection of boxes and bottles on your table looks like an exhibit I once saw at the Guggenheim.
ReplyDeleteYou should have never doubted my, my beloved creation. And while I'm excited that you have found your faith, I do not approve of this sort of method for losing weight. Congrats on losing the 10 pounds, that's nice, bet you look great in your jeans (well actually I KNOW you do, I see and know everything, of course), but I'd much prefer you stay healthy and avoid those nasty germs.
ReplyDeleteJust a suggestion. Still love you, always will, regardless of however far you stray from the fold.

I had a real bad flu in November. I think that it may have been H1N1. I had a 102 fever for 4 days.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you are getting well!
YEAH!!!! you're feeling better. If you ever figure out that drug combination be sure to share the secret.
ReplyDeleteBeen fighting the same thing... what..what??? oh yea.. I lose my hearing with mine.. too fun...
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling better. When you get a chance, could you post the combination that made you feel the most, well, happy while you were sick. It's not for me. It's for, uh, a friend of mine.
ReplyDeleteSo just take one of each color every couple of hours right? I'd like to drop 10 pounds but maybe it isn't worth all that. Glad to see you back again.
ReplyDeleteHey Marg's - I got a plug in for ya on my blog today.
ReplyDeleteThe Old Silly
