Sick day

I had had a headache and was so tired on Wednesday, but we got emergenC and between that and the dayquil I was trying to push through. I woke up achey and with a little headache on Thursday. We were going to the waterpark and the morning was a little cool, so we had planned to go later. I decided a soak in the jacuzzi might be just the thing, and it was lovely. I was leaning towards staying home to rest and my thought at this moment in the morning was that there were worse ways to spend a sick day.
But by the time I got out, I was feeling real bad. My throat, head, and body ached. I went straight to bed and stayed there for 24 hours. I was hot and cold and sick and just miserable. I even threw up, which I haven't done in 10 years maybe? It was so yucka. All the littlest littles had also stayed home that day and were very loud in the game room but I didn't care. I had my rain rain app (rain on a tent is my preferred white noise) playing the whole day while I was in misery. No tv, no phone, just sleep and trying to sleep.

Everyone else went to the waterpark and reported that it was v v fun. I love a waterpark and was so bummed to miss out. I have to remember to take my vitamins/emergenC on trips. Over the course of my life I've spent 4 vacation days down and out in bed, which is not actually that many since I'm 47, but is 4 times more than Matt has spent in bed.
