I knew it was going to happen. Last week our younges grandchild Garrett came over and he had such a wicked cold..runny nose and a deep cold voice. I knew it would soon spread through our house...that's why I was not surprised when Friday after work..my throat started to hurt..and my nose was burning.
Of course..I had a baseball banquet to go to. I really wanted to get out and have a good time but the raw, raging sore throat would not allow it. Home by 10. Saturday, I had signed up for an hour at Boot Camp for Hope...10-11am. There I was, Superman position (on your stomach looking down with your arms and legs off the floor) and my nose starts to run. Thank goodness I had the foresight to bring kleenex with me. That was a tough workout.
Then it was home to shower then off to our company's annual golf fundraiser for the George Jeffrey Children's Treatment Centre...still sick. All day I felt it coming...and it worsened with each hour, but I really wanted to have fun darnit!!!!
----- The line to the left...that's how close I was to winning the longest drive!!! My teammate Rhonda won it by a hair!! At least someone on our team won something! We did have fun, despite the cold attacking me. Then it was off to a birthday party that I really could not, not go to!! Jonathan Wilson's 40th!! So..off we four went after golf to celebrate with Jon!
Home at 11:30...and ready for bed. And stayed there until 6pm Sunday. I got out of bed to shower and put my pj's on. And back to bed.
So far this week..I seem to be fighting it off..with others telling me they suffered through colds for 3 weeks..another friend said they had a nasty cold for 7 weeks!!
Hope mine goes away and stays away!
