And I don’t mean that in the good sense.

I got sick last Sunday 23/7, and I’m still positive 7 days later.

This is not fun.

I managed to avoid the dreaded bug for 3 whole years… yet now, out of nowhere, I got it. I not only got it, but it got me good too.

Almost a full week of headaches, body aches, sore throat, chills, sweats, fevers, coughing, and just for a little added fun – some rather unpleasant bathroom excursions.

My tastebuds have gone on strike… All I can taste is salt, sugar and vinegar, nothing else. Water tastes foul so I’ve been drinking juice and watered down juice just so i can keep drinking fluids.

I’m feeling better today, the fever stopped yesterday, and the sore throat stopped today. I was feeling a little hopeful that I might be able to go see my brother, but no… I’m still testing positive.

Which sucks, cause Peter is only here for 2 weeks and I’ve been sick… and we have so much to organise and talk about… and frankly, I want to spent time with my brother before he goes back to Australia!

Anyway, I just thought I should send a quick heads up to let you know I’m not just being lazy this time.
