Today I'm sick in bed. Really, really sick. Coughing, sore throat -- in fact, it's on fire! -- sinuses ache, even my teeth hurt.
I have been a bit under the weather since Friday. But you know how you push through your sickness because you're too busy to lie down, put your feet up, and properly take care of yourself? Yep. That's me. I can't afford to be sick. Not when I work five days a week.
So the only time I can be sick...is on the weekend! Sad, but true. Such is the life of a working mother. And weekends are spent scrubbing and cleaning and doing laundry, usually. So guess what didn't get done today? You guessed it!
Ah, well...I have it better than those poor mothers living in third world countries who daily struggle for survival. They can never be sick. And if they are, there's no money to see a doctor, no warm and cozy bed to lie down in and rest, no vitamin supplement to go along with their chicken noodle soup. Poor women!
Thank Gods at least able to sleep most of my day away today.
I do feel a tad bit better...just in time for Monday!
