"I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day." Erma Bombeck, If I Had My Life To Do Over

----------

I'm taking Erma's advice!!! I have been knocked flat by this respiratory bug that's going around! Haley has been sick for 4 weeks and I have been for a little over 2 weeks. Decided after pool therapy on Monday that I was going to have to return to the rest mode I was in over the weekend. Laryngitis for four days - that's a new record for me. It is not easy to just let go and allow oneself be sick, however, guess that's what is required to get better sometimes. Still feeling really crummy today. It's cold outside and I'm staying inside in my pajamas snuggled up with Rebel. I really don't want to develop pneumonia. I was supposed to get a flu shot today, but guess it will have to wait.
