First Dose of Man-Flu
Barely has the first week of 2009 passed, and I’ve already been hit by my first dose of “Man-Flu”.
I got home from work on Tuesday evening feeling fine, had some dinner, and then less than an hour later I came over all funny. It was a really strange sensation, one minute everything seemed normal, then the next I was feeling very light headed, shivering and a headache was brewing…
At about 9pm, I was feeling pretty rubbish, so I hauled myself up to bed. Wrapping myself up in several layers of clothing and a thick quilt, I soon fell into a pretty decent sleep. I was woken up by Gemma coming to bed, and didn’t feel too bad, the sleep had definitely helped.
A few minutes later I was fast asleep again, and didn’t wake until about 5am when Liam woke up for his nightly drink. I was feeling a bit crap now.
Liam, incidentally, is also feeling poorly. He is snotty, and is totally off his solid food. Thankfully he is taking his milk, so we don’t have to worry too much about whether he is getting enough. He is feeling really sorry for himself, and is so tired. Even his usual smiles are a struggle
Anyway, back to me. The past couple of days have been a bit of a blur, seemingly I’ve been going around on autopilot. Trying to work is not easy as concentration is severely lacking at the minute. But at least I’m dragging myself in, and getting things done.
Hopefully this all won’t last too long, I’m sick of feeling like this, and its only been a couple of days.
