Virus be Gone!

MimisMomma · October 18, 2007, 02:15:54 PM

Now that I know it is just a virus it is a relief. I was instructed to take it easy and not push myself. So I did a half day at work today. But I do have to put in a full day tomorrow because of a deadline. But the rest of the time I am going to do nothing but pamper myself. I guess I can handle that. After all it is only a virus and nothing worse right? I do have a bunch of chores that need to get done but they will have to wait for another week. Wanted to say thank you again for all the support! You guys are the best!

I'm glad you were able to work only half a day today. That is great! Take it easy tomorrow at work since you have to work all day and make sure you have a relaxing weekend!

Mimi and Tuttle, you take good care of your mama okay?

Pamper yourself and cuddle with the puppers........sending rays that you are feeling better after the week end !

Feeling a bit better today! Was able to get to work early and I am really looking forward to snuggling with the pups tonight. Have to get my rest in tonight because tomorrow I plan on sanatizing my house! Well as much as I can with out pushing it. But I think it really needs to be cleaned well. Mimi and Tuttle are taking good care of me too! Tuttle didn't want me to get out of bed this morning and threw himself accross my tummy!! Mimi whined at me the whole time I was getting ready. They really know that I am not feeling good. It is so cute. I think I will share my scrambled eggs with them tonight. Seems to be the only thing I can hold down right now. Thanks again for all the well wishes. I sure hope no one else goes through this! Hopefully I am the chosen one to deal with it for everyone here!!

Mel, just make sure you don't over do it!!! Or it will hang on forever!!! So take it easy and don't wear yourself out sanitizing the house. Hope you get some good snuggling time in tonight with your babies....Mimi and Tuttle will kiss your virus away for you

Hey Mel,
I'm glad you're feeling a little better today. :apls: Its too bad that all you can eat are scrambled eggs. But, I'm sure Mimi and Tuttle love when you share those! I hope you continue getting better. And, definately don't overdo it with sanitizing the house. Sanitation is important, but not at the risk of making yourself more ill.

Tuttle, nice try on keeping mama home from work. Good boy!! Maybe next time it will work.

Keep taking care of her for us.

I won't push it. I want to be well again!! I may recruit my mother to help if she can but don't know about that yet. I also want to get better to have my theme nite and that won't work if I can't eat the good stuff or have the energy to put it all together. But it gives me something to look forward to!!

Windy here today! So it will be a nice evening to hunker down with the pups and pamper myself. Even though I get restless because I love my weekends I will do my best not to over do it. May have to avoid the game too!! That won't help the way they are doing!! I am so upset I didn't even were my Husker Scrubs!!

Yeah, I wore my Halloween promo shirt to work today instead of my husker gear. First time in years I haven't worn anything husker the day before a game. Its pretty sad when Colorado's game is televised and the Husker's aren't speaks volumes. I think i'll be listening to the game tomorrow, but if it gets bad, I'm shutting it off!

I wondered if the wind would head your way. Yesterday afternoon was horrible. Remember I said I was glad we weren't getting pelted with the neighbor's lawn furniture, well i spoke to soon. Our neighbors lawn chair came flying through our back sliding door yesterday evening. So....We had quite the breeze and mess in here. Luckilly, my landlady came immediately with her husband and the guy from Home Depot to replace it. She was literally here within 20 minutes! I was actually impressed by that. Makes me see her in totally different light. So...we didn't have to freeze all night thank God. And our neighbors offered to pay for it, but our landlord refused to let them. :crazyeyes: They were literally arguing over who was going to pay for it. It was kinda funny to watch. Our landlady ended up paying for it in the end.

Anyway....getting your mom to help sounds like a good idea. Would you boyfriend be able to help with any of it or is he like my husband and works a lot?

One more thing, we have sunshine here today! So...hopefully, we're sending it your way! :xfinger:

MimisMomma · October 19, 2007, 10:53:50 AM

That is funny about the land lady. Wonder if she if feeling guilty!! :meme: She should be after what she did with your door!

It is sunny here today but really windy! So I am glad you sent it my way. At least the sun helps! My boyfriend is going to be with his father and his kids all day tomorrow and he is working late tonight so I won't see him until late tomorrow night. He just took on a second job to help with some bills so he really doesn't want to have to take anymore time off then he absolutely has to at this point. If Mom can't help then I will just do what I can with out pushing it. I can tell as today goes on that I am getting worse. So I know I can't push it.

By the way, how did your tests go? Good I hope. Aces accross the board!!

doxielady5569128 · October 19, 2007, 11:09:54 AM

Well Mel, about those tests. I didn't feel like I was ready for them at all. So... I put them off till next week.

I'm buying a computer program thing that kinda tutors you as you go along. Since its a correspondence course I can kind of set my own schedule. And, being that it is accounting, I'm struggling with figuring all of it out on my own. Plus it doesn't help that when you take a test they don't send it back to you, so if you missed any, you have no idea what you missed.

If you are feeling worse as the day goes on today, maybe you should wait and do your sanitizing on Sunday instead of tomorrow. That way you can use tomorrow to rest all day. I'm glad you have sunshine today. We didn't get much sun with that wind yesterday, so it was pretty brutal.

MimisMomma · October 19, 2007, 01:24:18 PM

Yeah I will probably not do the chores tomorrow. I really need to take it easy. I have such big expectations on getting things done. That is why I am still sick I guess. Today is windy and sunny. Not gloomy like you had yesterday. Tomorrow is supposed to be 75 degrees!! I think still windy though then back to rain on Sunday.

I am glad you pushed your tests back a week especially if you didn't feel you were ready for them. By next week you will know everything inside and out I bet. It must be hard though having to go through that alone. How well does your hubby know accounting? Can he help you with any of it?

Almost time to get out of work!! Yeah I can't wait!

doxielady5569128 · October 19, 2007, 01:30:07 PM

HA! My husband and accounting don't even belong in the same sentence.

He is good about helping me study though. He helps me with memorizing all the definitions and stuff so I gotta give him credit for that. And, he's great at watching Porky and keeping him busy so I can get work done.

It is really hard doing this on my own, but I figure I'll just learn it that much more by teaching myself. At least I'm hoping so.

MimisMomma · October 19, 2007, 03:47:39 PM

I think you will learn more this way too. I am not that great at accounting either, I would offer to help you if I was. Glad hubby can help keep Porkey busy. That should help a ton!!
