OK, this is pretty pathetic but I am in the mood to whine. I'm not usually a whiner..........

DD (15 mo) got her first fever on Monday and it lasted 2.5 days. She seemed fine except for being clingy and nursing constantly!!! No problem, that is what the momma is here for!

Well, today, I'm feeling achy and stiff in my joints and cold all over and have a headache. I have a fever of 100.9. (Normal is 97.5 for me).

Dh is in school, gone two days a week from 6am til 10pm one night and 8pm the other. Tonight he's out at a play for his theater class and I am solo with dd again. She is really an angel for the most part. She's playing in the bedroom by herself.

But I just feel like having one big pitty party. How pathetic is that!

I'm taking zinc lozenges, extra vit c and cod liver oil....trying to take care of myself.

I'm sorry. Being sick is no fun, and being sick without dh there to take care of you is even less fun!

Probably to late but for the next time try taking that borion homeopathic Oscillium(sp).Works wonders along with sodium ascorbate,zinc,selenium,vitA,and...a GSE gargle every so often.

Thanks for the recomendations Sara! I do feel much better. I was better by Saturday and much better by Sunday. I still have a sore enlarged lymph node in the back of my neck but otherwise doing fine.

I had a great 2.5 hour pity party phone conversation with a firend on Saturday and it really cheered me up alot.

Dh has been missing in action these days alot due to three college classes, a required theater play for one of his classes and drill in the Air Guard Reserves....so I have been flying solo with the babe thru both of our illnesses and it just felt good to whine. I get sick so incredibly rarely! I figured I was due the whine!

Thanks for listening!
