Happy Weekend Friends!

I think I'm getting sick. My brain has been in a fog and I'm waking up with a sore throat. :( It probably has something to do with the crazy weather California has been having (80+ degrees yesterday with rain forecasted next week).

Anyway, there's not much slowing down in my future! I'll be working this weekend, spending some time with family, and deep cleaning the house.

What do you have planned?

The Flu

I got hit with an awful case of the flu over the weekend. It started Sunday evening, after the big game and lasted through midday yesterday. I initially thought that I may have eaten too much of my friend Ali's delicious guacamole, but the fever and full body aches were a dead give away that my new found friendship with my toilet could not be caused by over-indulgence alone.

Luckily, my sweet husband took great care of me while I was in such a pitiful state. He set me up to watch really good television (Parenthood) and a great movie (The Help), and even made me lunch-in-bed. I don't think I've completely recovered, but I'm feeling much better and stronger today. I will admit I did enjoy resting up, but I was starting to get super antsy being in bed for so long!

Do you have any sick-day rituals? Or go-to remedies?
