Deathbed

I have been poorly :-( Very very poorly!

I have managed to drag myself off my deathbed this evening to just check my comments after spending all yesterday evening feeling sick, followed by several hours of tossing and turning feeling more sick, followed by a glass of water at 4am, followed by projectile vomiting at 4.01am, followed by more hours of tossing and turning feeling sick, followed by a brief sleep, followed by dragging myself out of bed to drive the kids to school, followed by return to house and collapse on sofa, followed by day of tossing and turning still feeling sick, before eventually returning to some kind of human form around 6pm.

I have been at home all day and felt too ill to blog!! Yes, it was that bad!!! But never mind. I survived. Just! I will live to blog another day...!

I started a post yesterday, before being floored with the stomach bug from hell, about my criteria for men, so I will hopefully get around to finishing and posting that this week. Until then, back to bed for me I think!

what, OG, you don't have 'MOTHER'S IMMUNITY????' Your a mum, you NEVER get sick. Oh, but then you STILL managed to get them to school, get them home, sort them out, blah blah blah. If it was a man, no way could he have even left the bed for a pee!!!!

Mummy said...

Hmmm now now girls play nicely. You know how strong we men are.. never sick, never complain about it either do we?

< cough cough> ooh dear I think I have a touch of a cold. Best I go home now and whinge for 6 days.

Actually before i got so carried away. I meant to say I do hope you feel better soon O.G. Tummy bugs are the worst. Make sure you get lots of fluids in, else you can dehydrate and that will not be a good thing.

Freddy said...

dehydration is bad, and there are better ways to achieve that state than having a tummy bug....
and yah boo to you VI - not all men are sickly types who get man flu.

Persian Princess said...

sending big get well soon wishes OG!! and I agree on the super-mum-still-managed-to-get-the-kids-to-school action...good skills!

The Boy said...

Yes, ours had that last week. Keep hoping I've missed it.

I will have you know I'm the one that deals with the kids in our household when we're all ill! Two years ago, we all had fevours of 40 and twas I that went around bathing foreheads and cleaning up feeling like death warmed over. You

Man flu, that's what it is! Now you know what it feels like and we aren't milking it at all!!

Hope you are feeling better soon OG, we miss your witty comments and are awaiting your criteria for men most eagerly.

Hello all,
Just a quick comment to say thank you so much for your good wishes. I am feeling the lurve!! (fluttering eyelashes at this point!)

I was back at work yesterday and feeling much better, but was doing outreach last night and was shattered when I got in, and then had company tonight, and am now feeling sick again :-( It's rubbish!!

Will be sure to catch up properly shortly! x

Fat Controller said...

It's not often I'm glad not to be in the UK, but I'm not sorry to be missing out on the lurgi.

Our turn next, I expect.

Get well soon.
