Sick

My whole family is sick today.  Leona has strep and the rest of us have some virus that feels kinda like influenza.  Mine is trying to get into my lungs.  If that happens then it is bad.  I have reactionary asthma so if I start coughing I can't stop.  I will cough for months before I can get it to stop. In the past I have bruised ribs from coughing so hard.  So I am doing all I can to make sure I don't start coughing.

Being sick sucks. I hate the fact that I have no energy to do anything and I end up spending all day sleeping.  I always have so much to do that I feel guilty when I sleep all day.  It doesn't help that it drives me nuts to just lay there and do nothing.  I always have to be doing something. That is just how I am.  I am always fidgeting with things. But when I am sick I usually don't have the energy to fidget so I just lay there and go nuts.

I generally don't get sick that often but it seems like my immune system has weakened some lately.  I try my hardest not to get sick but this go around I didn't luck out. It didn't help that I have been around so many sick people the last few days and because of that I have lost a lot of sleep. That is what put me over the edge today I think.  I haven't had a lot of sleep since Friday because of Leona getting hurt and then Leona and Star and Skyler getting sick. Oh well.  I will get better soon and then I can go back to my crazy life.
