Yes, it's true. 12 days of swine flu are much less fun than the 12 days of Christmas! The worst part... I found it hard to read! My brain just couldn't focus. At first I thought, Okay...a few days to lay around reading... but No - not capable of that. I was able to knit...it doesn't take as much brain power. I'm just not sure anyone would want what I made while sick...
I am happy to say it all has subsisted and I'm feeling much better. Not "well" yet, but better! Now I'm just easily exhausted. But what do you want after 12 days of incapacitation? 12 days of going from bed to chair to bed and back - with a few minutes at the computer here and there. (I am so grateful for a boss who let me work from home!) Now I have to keep reminding myself how sick I was- so I don't push myself too hard. And that, I think, is the lesson here. I am a driven girl, and I usually push myself too hard. This ordeal brought me down a few pegs... It's okay to not push so hard. But I can now say, "I survived the Swine flu!" It might take me some time to feel back to normal... and that's okay. To come through this with no hospitalization, no secondary infections, and I didn't die... Well that's all God's doing. And I am grateful!
And feeling better happened just in the nick of time... School starts tomorrow! We'll see if I last through all my classes...
