Be careful what you brag about

Early last week I was bragging about how I had gone all Fall and Winter without getting sick, not even a cold. Now I wish I had kept my mouth shut, as it fell on me like a ton of bricks last Thursday. Sinus problems, severe headache (the raccoon-face type), runny nose, cough, swollen glands, etc. You get the picture.

There is never a good time to be sick, but of course, Easter was not one of the best, since we had big family doings. Four of my grandchildren were being Baptized and taking their First Communions, so the whole family converged on my daughter's home for the weekend. I ended up staying in the hotel, shivering under the covers and using a whole box of tissues in a few hours. Never have I been more miserable (except when I had pneumonia) and it is not much better yet. Surely I will enter the land of the living soon, at least I am telling myself that I will. Catch you later......
