December 19th 2012- Flu

I was going to write a blog post last night, but I didn't get around to it since time did not permit me to do so.
So...here I am again, starting this one.

Today I am getting better from the flu.

Here is how it all started, if you feel so keen to know, or maybe you don't care, but in that case, I am writing this any way, so look away.

The day before yesterday I got 'hit' suddenly with the flu while I was doing math.
And later in the day I laid down and drank some tea because it got worse. (Thanks to Iain for telling me to lay down and drink some tea! You are such a kind-hearted man!)

When I did finally get to bed that night, I woke up several times having a stuffy nose and throat- It was horrible.
I got up yesterday morning and ate breakfast which for me consisted of canned peaches and tea. (Everyone else ate cold cereal.)
I got a stomachache and I felt like throwing up and since the dogs needed to be taken out, my sister told me told me it might be a good idea to go outside if I felt sick. I did then go outside... and then felt more and more sick...until I promptly  throw up my breakfast...twice. I stayed out for a little longer to make sure I wasn't going to throw up a third time. I didn't.
I felt better and went back in.
Throughout yesterday, I had aches in my muscles and joints, had a headache, and also was queasy on and off a couple of times, but I didn't throw up again, thankfully.

Even through all this, I really don't have anything to complain about. I have a warm home, loving family, friends, brothers and sisters in Christ for encouragement, and so much more. I am so thankful for each and every one of you!! (Plus, this is the first sickness all year!)

I have made up my mind to try to write on this blog everyday; telling about my day and what I am thankful for and other things if I manage to get the time.

I'll leave it there for now. God bless you all and thanks for stopping by again! :)
