Jay Better, Me Not So Much
Jay has gone without a fever and without Tylenol since 7:00.
I can’t say the same for myself. I felt really tired and dizzy all morning, and then during lunch, I just didn’t feel like eating. I assumed that I was over-cooking so much yesterday that today I was on a food burn-out. I started into laundry, getting four loads done and cleaning up the kitchen from yesterday, which got into a state of disrepair other then dishes, which I keep up as I go along. The weather was warmer today than it has been recently, and my house is open with fans going. I was feeling warm and was considering turning the air conditioner on. I took another temperature reading for Jay, which came out normal. I sat there for a moment, changed the cover and then took a temperature reading for me: 100.4. Oh. No wonder the house is warm and food is entirely unappealing. Some Tylenol has it back down to 99.2, which for my normal body temperature of 97.8, is still making me feel warm.
I’m going to take a shower with the kids to get that done, and then let Mac handle dinner. He can order delivery, go through a drive-through or dig out leftovers. I don’t care. I just don’t want to deal with food. I just want to get into bed–maybe play some games, which always takes my mind off being miserable.
