Sick AND Tired

Okay, you know that great party I had on Sunday? Yeah, the one that exhausted me. Well, it made me sick.

Not that the food or fun made me sick, but the exhaustion lowered my immune system enough to catch the flu. Yup.
They call it "The Crud" around here, and I've got it. I'm much better today, hence the blogging, but yesterday I was miserable.

I awoke with a terrible headache, I thought my head would explode. So, my sweet Ronnie came home to take care of the kids, and hopefully he's gonna make it home today as well, as I'm not quite up to par.
Anyway, my whole body hurt, I was sleepy, weepy and couldn't catch my breath in a simple conversation. So, I turned to my homeopathic remedy kit!

I took a few doses of Arnica, but that didn't help the headache much, so I turned to what I knew, Tylenol. Once I had some bearing on my brain again, I realized I should have taken Mag. Phos. instead of the Arnica.
So, last night, when I started feeling hot, but was not running fever, intermittent with chills, I took good old faithful Gelsemium--which is specifically for the flu! In 15 minutes, I was washing a load of clothes and organizing Sofia's chest of drawers.
Maybe I over did it, cause this morning I'm feeling yucky again, though not nearly as severe. So, I think I've saved myself a long flu duration. I think I may have actually cut it down to a couple of days, instead of a full week.
I'll keep you posted.
