No Christmas family party for me this year. I started feeling a bit under the weather at work on Thursday, took Friday off, just because. And I can barely get out of the recliner, no energy, a deep cough, running a temp. Dear husband called his sister yesterday to cancel Christmas Eve at her home. He refused to leave me alone for the day, but as always when I get sick, he is a bit distant, he doesn't need to come down with this, for sure. I can't even get myself out of the recliner to do any digital art. I have been sleeping 12 hours for the last two nights, when my normal is five hours. I hope you all are having a better holiday than me. Seasons greetings!
 
What a bad time to get sick (not that any time is a good time...). Hoping for your speedy recovery!
 
Oh no Marilyn! It's no fun being sick but even worse at Christmas time. Hope you are feeling better soon!
 
Oh no!! So sorry you are sick! Hope you are feeling better quickly and get to enjoy at least some of the holiday!!
 
So sorry to hear this, Marilyn. Stay in and take care of yourself. I had two weeks of what sounds like the same thing earlier in December. It is slow to leave and we know we are really sick when we can't hold it together to get to the computer to scrap. Wishing you restored health and a time of "no guilt" rest. Hugs....
 
Sleep is what you need. Your creative processing center will flourish when you are well. Keep hydrated, and be better for news years and MOC.
 
I hope you feel better! My nine year old daughter got sick on Thursday as well- the flu Christmas is definitely not the time for sick!
 
I'm so sorry Marilyn. I hope you feel better soon. That sure is bad timing - but it is sweet Hubby is staying home. Just knowing he's there - I'm sure is a huge comfort even if he is keeping his distance. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
 
Marilyn, I am so sorry yu are under the weather. Feel better and I do hope you are feelingbetter today. Thinking of you.
 
Oh geez. That is just awful. I’m so sorry that you had that cancel Christmas. Sure hope you feel better by now. And I hope you have the rest of the week off too so you can have some creative time where you actually feel good.
 
Hi all, thank you for the support. I am among the living. Off to work today, it is so nice and quiet, so that is good. My fever finally broke late Sunday, started on Friday. Sipping tea and drinking lots of water was what I had a taste for. On the plus side, I know I dropped a few unwanted pounds. :-)
 
Oh no, Marilyn! It sounds like the flu, which is supposed to be pretty bad this year. What terrible timing, I hope you start feeling more like your old self soon.
 
So sorry to hear your sick Marilyn! I, also have been sick, and it's not fun! Started a week ago. I spent 3 full days in bed with no energy to get out. Cough and my nose. Husband has the same thing. We called the doctors and they said it is just a virus that needs to run its course.

It is really going around from what I hear.
 
I've also been down for the last week. So sorry to hear of the lost days but glad that you are bouncing back.
 
@Sokee @wvsandy I guess we can all commiserate together. I hope you all feel better fast.
@GlazeFamily3 I hope your daughter is on the mend, poor thing being sick at Christmas, and Christmas is for kids....

I actually feel more like myself today than I had since Thursday.
 
@mcurtt glad you are feeling better!

My daughter’s fever finally broke yesterday- had it since Thursday. She is still snotty and coughing, but on the mend.

Unfortunately I am now sick and running a high fever. Perils of being a mom.
 
Well the timing was pretty rotten for when you came down sick Marilyn but I very happy to hear that you are recovering quickly! :beat I think I found those extra pounds you lost though!!!! :giggle Would you like them back?????? :lmao:lmao
