Yeeeeeeeeeea, never again will another cold season go by (or even come anywhere near me) in which I do not get a flu shot.
WHOOOO BOY.
This is now the third time ... THIRD TIME ... this year we have had a round of
whateveryouwannacallit,sickyukkies !!! Yep, that's what I said !
I am tired of it. Saturday, we all had plans to go to the Chilldrens Mueseum ... but nooooooo ... after waiting all week .. Adam got sooo sick. Only got out of bed once that whole day, Sunday was the same along with Jordan. I felt ok, so I cleaned EVERYTHING ... like a mad woman. Thought that for some ODD reason that - that just might help. No such luck ... I got it tonight - and I feel crappy.
My throat is on fire, like I am a dragon and it hurts to swallow. Dangitall. :O(
So - ya'll got my good word, that heaven help me another season will never pass again when I think the flu shot is not needed. That was the worst decision I think I might have made in a looong time.
Hope you all are well - been thinking of ya - checkin in, but not saying alot. No one seems to be around too much anyway, but I do notice I am missing two contacts ... but geeze, ha- can't figure who they are. Oh well. No biggie I guess then.
I'll blog soon ... either when I feel better or I figure out something worthwhile to say. LOL.
~ HUGS TO YOU ~
TAMMIE
hugs to you Tammie and hope you're feeling better soon....I've had a few contacts leave, but I try my best to keep up. When you have a 7 yr old, between doctor appointments, he having strep, physical therap and homework, doesn't seem like enough time to be here!! grrr, gotta change my priorities!! LOL
ReplyDeleteUgh feel better soon. I've been lucky this year..no flu..no cold. It's green tea and vitamin c..also J being out of elementary school helps! It's a germs paradise!
ReplyDeleteI too, have the sickyukkies and my husband too. Yikes...going on over a week now. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to feeling better real, real soon Tammie. I feel for ya girl. The creeping crud is going around our military community here, faster than you can say sickyukkie. :-D
Awww...I am sorry to hear you are all sick again. I really don't get sick much at all, and have only had the flu once this year, but it was enough for me! We had it go through most of the family. My hubby ended up with pneumonia and a hospital stay, so be careful!
ReplyDeleteReminder to self: check into flu shot next year...better than going through sickyukkies!
Hug's!!!Get to feeling better!
ReplyDeleteSorry you feel like crap. This is going around for the 3rd time where I work too....thankfully I have only had the pleasure of experiencing it once!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
aww man, I did that like two years ago - had the crud back to back to back.. it's draining
ReplyDeleteI feel for you
I did have a flu shot this year for the first time
it's running rampant in the school's and Bella is deep in it... she's sick though I'm sending her to school cuz she missed so much.. don't worry no fever
however... I'm symptomatic too... not as bad as the flu but I've got a touch...so the shot works but you still get "some " symptoms
I hear it's going around...feel better soon!!
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better soon. Your throat sounds more like strep to me than the flu.
ReplyDeleteI skip flu shots and try to eat plenty of veggies, vitamin C, and I'm a big tea drinker. Knock on wood but I haven't gotten sick this season. I've come close, but I have been thankfully able to fight it off. I also swear by Emergen-C which is a vitamin drink, bought in powdered packet form, you add to water. Its loaded with B and C vitamins.
I know so many people who have had this crappy thing over and over and over again..just like you guys. How awful! I got sick last week...spent (it felt like) 12 straight hours on the toilet. Bleck. Luckily, no one else in the family got it. Whew......
ReplyDeleteHope you get to feeling better soon!
Oh feel better soon. That so stinks ( pun intended!). It's making the rounds down here in Florida as well - although more the respiratory sinus kind.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the contacts. I don't mind being deleted from lists, just have the courage to let me know. LOL guess it really isn't that big of loss in the grand scheme of life though. When someone gets a bug up their nose, you probably don't need their drama anyway.
Just came by to check on ya....I have been sick this week too...hopefully the weather changes soon and we can all get back to normal-whatever that is!!!
ReplyDeleteHope everyone gets better soon. Drink plenty of liquids. Hope it goes away soon. ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah I need to start getting flu shots but my insurance doesn't cover them except for old people so I've never had one! I feel like crap too... I haven't slept more than about 3 hours each night for the past three nights. Last night, I randomly woke up drenched in sweat and it happened again this morning. Strange....
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear you're feeling bad. Spring should be here soon so maybe that cheers you up. : )
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you are sick!!! At this moment, we are all healthy here ***knock on wood*** Hope this bug passes you by quickly!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you all feel better real soon! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwww I am sorry you have been sick!! I hope you'll feel better soon. You know I hear both sides to the flu shot. I've heard people that don't get it but then people who do get it and still get the flu. Yeah it's been very quiet around here almost like people have become bored of it. I noticed that over on Yahoo too. When I first join a site it seems to be the new thing and everyone wants in on it but slowly it starts to get boring and they lose interest in something else. It use to be that during the summer was when people didn't blog much but lately here that's not the case. Oh sorry to go on about that just guess another reason I am not rushing here to check things out. Been thinking of you and thanks again for the gift! I really did like it! Hugs to you!!
ReplyDeleteSounds pretty uncomfortable. Lots of folks got it last year, kept it for months, then got it again right after they recovered. Whatever that one was, it needs to go elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you're not feeling well. Seems to be a lot of junk going around right now. My family and I have been sick too.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
Hugs!
I hope you all feel better VERY SOON!
