Phlegm, mucus, fever, lack of appetite, watery eyes, lack of energy and beeing depressed.

Since Thursday morning, I've been sick. Feverish, cold, warm, sore throat, tight chest, no energy, runny nose, no appetite, lousy temperament and an aching in my whole body. Very nice time to be all alone, because of my dog Leo. Even though I felt like I would be better of dead, than this sick, I still had to take him for a walk. What a nightmare, seeing double because of the fever, dizzy and sweaty. Sometimes I wish Leo was a cat, so he could take him self out for a walk...... Poor Leo, I feel so sorry for him, having to endure an owner like me, so selfish and egotistical when she's sick! For three days now, all I've done is using pack after pack of Kleenex, coughing up phlegm until my chest caved in, feeling sorry for my self, crying for being so lonely and trying very, VERY hard Not to cough because GOD it hurts! It's actually quite amazing that the human body can produce this abundance of snot!! I have already used 25 packs of Kleenex and it doesn't look like is going to stop anytime soon! M mm, how lovely!


This just had to happen now, the only weekend WB is NOT coming home. It's like my body hates me, it just KNEW he was gonna be away, so it planned to punish me with this awful cold. How have I possibly wronged my body so? I thought I was being nice to it, taking care of it, you know, drinking over 2 liters of water every day, sweating the same 2 liters when I cycle home from work, trying to eat a lot of fruit and some vegetables, taking long walks in the wood, swimming, doing exercises for my back, sleeping well and taking vitamins. But oh no, that wasn't enough evidently. So here I am, enduring my punishment. I am taking revenge tonight though. I am eating chocolate and drinking Coke, so ha ha ha, stupid body, I've got the last laugh!!


It has been awful, I've felt so lonely because WB wasn't here. He SHOULD be here when I am so sick! He should be here and take care of me, making me feel better, walking Leo, making me hot chocolate or tea with honey, making sure I got some food, do the shopping and tucking me in at night. In stead I've had a living hell and poor Leo is the one suffering for it. I tried to make it up to him tonight, he got lots of chocolate as well. Especially for dogs that is, I don't want to punish his poor body as well as mine! I am so looking forward to Friday, when WB finally comes home. I miss him so much! Lucky him, having escaped my misery! Lucky him for being away with his colleagues on a three-day seminar at a mountain hotel eating gourmet food, while I don't have the appetite for anything at all and not having taste buds that work because of a blocked nose so it's really no point in eating anything at all!

My fever is gone now I think, maybe that's why I feel a little better, at least well enough to write this. Maybe tomorrow I have to join society again and at least look at the news to see what has been happening in the world. But for now, I am content taking Leo out for his evening walk and going to bed. Night, everybody!
