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

Re: I'm so domestimicated---early morning update
Hope you feel better
He would have been contagious before his symptoms became full blown so it would have been hard for you not to catch it.
Hope it passes soon, and that if he feels a lot better he can return your chicken noodle favor :0)
