Life ain't easy

As with Dragon, this cold doesn't really hit you head on. It kind of circles around you and pokes you with a sharp stick... so basically I'm feeling fairly miserable but not quite sick enough to justify a sickie. My nose is blocked and I feel like my head is wrapped in cotton, but that's about it. In addition my shoulders are so sore from Monday's yoga I can't lift my arms properly, or hug Dragon, or hook my bra without cringing from pain. And now in the evening I'm starting to experience some sinus pains - I don't like to use nasal decongestants as for me they just seem to increase the pain.

I'm just hoping tomorrow I'll be either properly sick or properly well. I imagine either will happen and I'll have to go to work again.

Ooh, that's so nasty - it often happens to me too, feeling sick but not sick enough that I could just rest and not feel guilty for not working. :/ I hope you'll feel better soon!

Oh, dear poor you!
I feel guilty, because I believe you are suffering from the same decease as me. I week ago in the morning I felt miserable, my temperature was below 36 C. I was freezing and later sweating, when the temperture was normal. My nose and eyes were running, ang my head felt thick. I stayd one day at home, and decided to have another sickie, but next morning Ursa Major was in the same condition, and I decided to do shoping and to go to work...
Now the week has elapsed, and he is now much better,as he stayed at home two days. My condition hasn't changed, and I today decided to stay again at home at least one day.
So, I believe it would have been wise to stay at home longer in the beginning.
I hope you and Dragon get better, this cold is so nasty.

I guess you all got it from me and Harro... Sorry about that. I had the same cold two times, and the second time it was something like you must be having now. Sometimes I felt I was getting better and went out, and the next day I was sick again. So if I were you, I'd stay home even if you don't feel sick "enough".
Be carefull with that cold, it's really evil!
