I'm Sick!

I hate being sick and I'm a big whinny baby when I'm sick. Worse than any man - ever!!! Also, I'm so completely and utterly responsible that even though I woke up this morning sick to my stomach, unable to eat anything, with a headache, fever and feeling dizzy I went to work. Maybe responsible isn't the right word, maybe stupid is. But I had work to get done and I hate schlepping my work on others in the office. We all have jobs to do and while we are all capable of doing most of the jobs (except dispensing legal advise) I know that when I shuffle stuff from my desk to someone else's the end result is that my work gets done but whoever is helping me, well their work doesn't get done. That is absolutely no fun - so I try not to do. I know how not fun it is because it often happens to me. Also, I skipped knitting last night and JB and I went to the pet store and then out to dinner. Where I sat and knit on a very portable holiday gift for several hours. I had one drink early in the evening, so I'm not suffering today from a bottle flu, but I do still guilty having gone out last night and then ending up sick today. The reality is that I think I ate something richer than I am used to and that is what's making me sick. Well that explains the stomach ache, but not the fever. On another front I actually have other blog posts to get to. Bonnie & Sharon have both nominated and I haven't forgot. I also have some sewing to show. for now I'm going to lay down on the couch with my sweet, weak tea, my book and HGTV on the idiot box. I was able to eat some toast. I hope we have Chicken Noodle Soup for JB to make me later :)

  1. Oh dear. Hopefully you didn't catch my flu from through the phone. ;) Get some rest. Besides, I want to learn what you learned about rotating darts! Hope to see you soon.

  2. Oh, I'm so sorry that you're not feeling well. I'll confess - I'm also a big baby too when I get sick. I want DH to feel sorry for me and cater to me. I no longer drag myself to the office when I don't feel well, but it sounds like you have a job with greater deadlines than I do. Hope you feel better soon!

    Actually, food issues CAN cause a slight fever! Something my mom has learned on her fun (not so fun) journey with diverticulitis.

  6. Hope that you feel better soon. I have some sort of head cold that is whiping me out. Plus James has it so I am sick and having to take care of a sick toddler. I think we got it from Kevin. He was sick last week and you would think that he was going to die.

  8. Hey, sick-baby. hope you're getting enough fluids snd sleep. Did you go into work with a fever? Ach! You need to be piled under blankets and fed soup and chocolate, and tea, and jam-biscuits. Poor stunt-stitcher. I posted a few fabric photos on my blog for you to drool/snot over. Feel better, friend... Cami
