The Flu

i've had the flu this week and it's not fun. and to add insult to injury, tuesday night when i began feeling sick, i was cooking dinner and a speck of grease popped into my right eyeball. yes, i said eyeball. it burned. therefore wednesday morning i made 2 doctor's appointments. one with my eye doctor and one with my internist. the eye doctor said yes, indeed i do have a small burn on my eyeball but it was not bad {thankfully} and gave me some eye drops for relief. with that issue out of the way i continued on to the internist. after waiting for over an hour {and finishing a great book by Dean Koontz} my fever spiked again and the doctor ascertained that i have the flu.
so here i am with tamiflu, an antibiotic that i cannot pronounce, cough drops, ibuprofen, and a lot of water! hopefully this will blow over soon enough. i saw that we are supposed to have excellent weather this weekend. i sure would hate to be trapped in the bed all weekend!
