It has arrived

I knew it would. It always does. It’s just that I’m usually not the first to get it. But I should have known based on my dreams last night that it was coming. Does anyone else have very unsettling dreams when your body is getting sick?

All I dreamt about last night were cockroaches and bees invading my home, climbing all over my arms, molting all over my skin. And it hurt, so I took Advil after Advil trying to force the pain away. Of course, Advil doesn’t do much in a dream. When I woke up I was so sore, everywhere. Then a little bit later the aching has set in. And now the bathroom has become my constant companion.

I hate the flu.

What a horrible dream, I think I would’ve woken up screaming and scratching at my arms. The roaches I remember are ha-yuge! Like 2-3 inches long and they fly, gack!

I hope you feel better soon.

I never have strange dreams, but I do get all achy with the feeling of wanting to be under the covers reading a good book! Right now I am trying to fight off a sinus infection.

The flu is awful. Hope you feel better soon and that your kids are angels while you’re sick.

I hope it’s the not the “really evil” 3 week flu and that you feel better in a day or two! I have already had my flu shot for the evil one. Now I need a vaccine to make me immune to certain teachers and a person or two in my nursing program. :devil:

Thanks for the kind words on my blog! Hugs for you.
