I woke up

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I woke up

I woke up sick today. I have a cold. I homeschool, so I'm sitting at my schoolwork desk as I type this, but doing work is just so.....languid. I feel hot, but I'm cold. I'm sweaty, but I'm not. My throat hurts. I'm bored. I'm supposed to be doing grammar, not this. Ugh. I hate grammar. It's boring. I just had to ramble all this. Ugh.

 

Hope you feel better soon, Cayke. I recommend oranges, orange juice, and tea with lemon.

Thanks, Butterfly!! Unfortunately, all the citrus products in my house besides The Lemon have disappeared. =(  My brothers ate all the oranges. My throat is better now, but I have a headache and I feel dizzy when I walk. But thanks!! I always get well faster when I know someone cares. =)

That happened to me once. I woke up and felt like somebody scratched up my throat and I felt like there was blood in my throat. Then I went to gymnastics, came home and I felt (still sick but) better. So go upside down a little bit. Jump around. Flip.

I was sick a couple days ago. The best thing you can do is rest.

Oh, I'm sorry Cayke, that sucks! But some lemon water (no sugar; if you really need sweetener, use honey!) should definitely help. Tea, coffee, or hot cocoa too! And if you need to go out anywhere, bring tissues and a few cough drops. Hope you get well soon! {:

Oh, thank you Nora and EarthGirl!! And Nora, I always make lemonade with honey only. Our honey just finished too!! But I drank some juice, and now I'm almost well!! Again thank you, you all cheered me up when I was sick. =)

Cookie says dext. Are you saying "Next" through your nose? Maybe YOU have a cold!!

If you drink tea or something like that, don't make it too hot. Hot drinks burn your tongue which is REALLY unpleasant.

Aww, being sick is no fun. Hope you feel better soon -- get some rest! (I know that's sometimes really hard -- I hate being sick for the one reason that you're not supposed to be up and moving -- but it always has helped me in the end.)
