DH has had the flu all week and finally shared it with me.
So, yes, I wanteveryone to say awwwwwwww "Poe, Poe mickee!" and this morning when I
rose to take care of the ever demanding "livestock," I slithered onto the
scale to find I've gained 3 lbs. I've been holding a new-ish low of 151 and
this morning I was looking at 154.2 .... way to kick a gal when she's down.
But here are the facts. Yesterday, this was coming on and I had to stop
my treadmill workout 5 minutes in. I found myself craving carbs... unusual
for me these days. I know... "Our bodies tell us what we need when we're sick."
Nawwww... my defenses were down and I can't even bring myself to report what
I succumbed to. Today, I know my workout will consist of brushing my teeth,
and riding in the car with DH to wherever he wants to go (*sigh*) because
it's the sweet man's Birthday. Luckily, he's planning on sleeping in and I'll
go for some clear soupy thing for dinner out. He gets so few days off, there's
really no postponing this. So I'm going to break out "the smile clips," (attach
hook of bungee cord to left corner of mouth...wrap around back of skull to access
and engage right corner of mouth...viola, effortless glee) and try not to add
insult to injury. Be well all...I'll be here with Kleenex stuffed up both nostrils until
the day's festivities begin.
I feel your pain sista. I had the flu for a week and just started getting over it. The headache was the worst part. Hope you feel better soon.
