oh my head, my achin' head

Yesterday around 5 pm, give or take, I got the worst headache. Took some Motrin but it didn't do a thing. My throat was feeling a bit scratchy and sore. Fast forward to the middle of the night. Throat felt like it was on fire, head felt like it would explode, could not sleep, Sweet Pea wasn't sleeping well either. I figured for sure I'd miss church but ended up going anyway. I should've stayed home and tried to nap because I certainly didn't get a nap in today, although I've been resting. I've taken Motrin and Tylenol interchangeably, took Silver, took EmergC, been sucking down honey, drank some tea with tons of honey in it, sucked on some throat drops and still feel awful. I don't even have an appetite. I know I'm going to have to eat something for dinner but I have no idea what. So, I thought yesterday was bad, well today is much worse. I have so many school lessons to plan but at this rate I'm wondering how I'll get to that. I'm wondering how I'll even do school if I feel like this. I just want it all to go away!!! It's so weird too, because when I was out to lunch with my friends yesterday I felt fine. It just all of a sudden hit me. And now it can leave. I pray none of the kids get it. As it is SP's had a runny nose again today. She just got over being sick and just got off of antibiotics so I really hope she doesn't get something again! Tis the season for sickness I guess...

My goodness, you got it bad. Surely w/ all that stuff you took you would feel some relief. Sounds like Zach should take over mommy duties and you climb in bed and stay there.Hope you feel better soon

I should've mentioned, that IS one good thing- he's fully taken over for the day (actually he pretty much did yesterday too).

We had Swine Flu about a month back and that is exactly how it was with us - just BOOM here it is.
But it is the flu and that's how it goes. We will be praying for you to feel better soon,
