So yesterday FH calls me and sounds awful. He's sniffling and sneezing and he almost never gets sick (unlike me). Since he wasn't working, I told him to go straight home and go to bed!!!!!
I get home from work at 5 and he's still sleeping so I decided that the jewish cure all exactly what he needs. I spent about an hour or so in the kitchen and whip him up some homeade chicken noodle soup (and no it really wasn't from a can). He woke up at 8pm and was definetely a happy camper. He stayed up for a little while longer and went back to bed (after wrestling of course).
He told me to wake him up before I left for work as is our morning ritual. He said he was feeling a little better. I reminded him that he still had soup in the fridge he could heat up.
The kicker, even though he was sleeping in the other room, so I wouldn't get sick, this morning I wake up and now my throat hurts and I'm sniffling and sneezing up a storm
What stinks is that I know no matter what I need to push myself to work, I can't take off since I have no sick time.
Sorry for this everyone....I know I probably complain too much but I am really bad when I am sick. Heck i'm bad when i'm not sick.
I came home from work yesterday and fell asleep from 6ish-10ish. I was up for a couple of hours and went back to bed. I decided to use the humidifier to see if that would help clear me up.
However, I barely slept last night. I don't know if it was from all the meds I took but I kept on waking up every hour on the hour. In the early part of the night I had major chills. I hadn't bothered to check my temp until about an hour ago It seems that I have a fever, over 101 closer to 102. I didn't think it would be THAT high but thats definetely not good .
Now there's no way I can go to work like this. If I didn't have a fever, i wouldn't have a problem going to work but I don't want to get anyone else sick. This ***** because this will be the third week in a row where my paycheck will be cut short. Working temp, i don't get paid for holidays, have vacation time or sick time.
Blech

Ugh it totally svcks especially since we were sleeping in different rooms!!!!!
I think this started from Rosh Hashana last week. Immediately following dinner on Thurs, his mother and cousin started sniffling. It definetely doesn't help that one of their friends 5 year old daughters was coughing on the food and not covering her mouth. I tried to not touch anything she was near.
That drives me crazy, the mother said NOTHING about it, never once told her to cover her mouth.

Must be from school starting. You know how kids pass things around.
I know, its one thing when they are 1/2, they really don't know better but by the time they're 5/6. I think its a little different.

Take LOTS of Vitamin C. I'm talking 9 or 10,000 mgs a day. Take three 1000 mg capsules w/ breakfast lunch and dinner for a day or so and it should knock it out of you or at least lessen the sickness.
Feel better! and I hope FH feels better too.
I hope he saved you some chicken soup there Martha Stewart..LOL

I had to make some more as soon as I got home tonight since it was almost gone. Thankfully I really just needed some broth in it so it wasn't too much work. I had some earlier and much latter made myself a nice big milkshake (its a good thing both were lowfat otherwise my diet would be shot).
He's feeling much better now but he's gotten to sleep the last 2 days. I on the other hand have to go back to work tomorrow no if's ands or butts about it! I slept a few hours when I got home and i'm going back to bed in a few minutes.
ETA I just hope I feel better by Thurs...I really want to go!
