Feeling almost human again.

After 3 pretty rough days, I am feeling almost human again. Well, the 3 days weren't that rough, I guess. I spent a lot of time sleeping and the rest of the time doing nothing. LOL!

This morning, I got up at 6 and put on makeup. Then I was getting ready to get dressed and thought, "What the heck am I doing?" I still felt like crap but was planning to go to work? What planet am I from? So, I called and left my boss a message that I was not coming in. Not only would I have been pretty unproductive, but in our new work environment if I was the least bit contagious, I would have been sharing with several people and did not want to do that.

So, I went back to sleep and slept until noon. Then I got up and sat and read and watched tv all day. Totally unproductive, yes, but I got a lot of rest and finally feel more human. Thank goodness for Zicam, which I think really does shorten the duration of a cold. I always have it on hand and start using it as soon as I feel on coming on.

I will be going to work tomorrow and hope to be able to get 2 days worth of work done. Hopefully, nothing exploded on my desk today. LOL!

Great choice to stay home. Nothing upsets me more than when people who are obviously sick come into work and spread the germs.

I am so glad you are feeling better though. Rest is always the best thing.

Have a great day back tomorrow

I loved the up the nose zicam, but they took it off the market :( I've tried the mouth spray in mint (didn't like it much) and the orange dissolving tablet....they do work...but i hate the taste!

Hi, Judy. Yes, it irritates me to death when people come to work sick. That is probably how I caught my cold.

Spaghetti, believe it or not, I still have some of the Zicam swabs. I love them, but one more cold will deplete my stock and I will have to try something else.

I'll try the orange.
