I'm so blessed...

This past week I was really really sick, which isn't my idea of a blessing. It's more of a curse. I called in sick on Wednesday, Thursday, AND Friday. I had the flu with a high temperature rotating between severe chills and sweats. However, I have to think my lucky stars I never felt like throwing up (until Friday). Basically, I didn't move nor eat the whole time. 

Then my mom, who's a nurse and knows everything, was the best and came over with tomato soup and grilled cheese. Whenever I'm really sick all I want is the greasiest greasiest food. And it tastes so DANG GOOD.  

Friday I was feeling better, but then developed a severe migraine. It was so bad, I almost wanted to throw up.  Then to top it off, Saturday, I continued to have my migraine AND I lost my voice. 

My sister was like...Wow! What's next? I exclaimed....DEATH!! I'm sure of it.

Then, I was laying in my bed in complete darkness at 8:30pm on a Saturday night...I know...LAME! But, my head would not stop pounding (it was a sinus headache). I called my sister and to prove again how awesome she is....she ran over with Tylenol with coding, Night Quill AND Vick's Vapor Rub. I took/used them ALL after taking my Sudafed. Also, I thought she said...I even have a half opened bottle of wine! I was like...bring that too. BUT, alas (not really - I don't drink), that's not what she said. I fell asleep at 9pm and slept the whole night through...a first since Tuesday night. Sleep never felt SO GOOD! 

My real blessing....

is that I am a very very healthy person. It takes a little sickness to realize how healthy I am. I couldn't imagine having to endure such pain day-in and day-out. To have cancer or some type of disease where I would have to continually be sick. I'm too much of a baby. I don't know if I could handle it. I don't get sick that often, but I was able to see a glimpse of the pain some people have to endure. I'm just truely truely a blessed person and hope and pray that I continue to have good health. 

Another blessing...

I have the best friends and family, who would really do anything for me...I love them!
