Back to the land of the living....

I woke up at 5am yesterday to my stomach/intestines churning like crazy. I knew then that it wasn't going to be a good day. K came in (he slept on the couch since he hadn't been feeling well the day before), I was in the bathroom and told him he would need to get a ride to work. Thankfully he was able to take the day off. I felt HORRIBLE because he took sick days Thursday and Friday.

Anyway..I was in bed all day. I never had any vomiting (and believe me..I tried!!!!) but I had other stuff. At one point I almost passed out in the bathroom. Not fun.

What sucks with me is when I'm sick like that, when I start feeling some better I get VERY light headed. So even though I felt better last night I was SO worn out and got to feeling faint so easily.

Better today though. Trying to get my house cleaned up. When I finally made it to the kitchen last night..YUCK. The floor was sticky in spots and the counters were dirty. Dh got dinner made then unloaded/loaded the dishwasher. But he doesn't wipe off the counters. I was able to be up long enough at one point to wipe a few really bad spots off the floor and clean the counter. It's much better now that I've scrubbed the floor and wiped things down!! The dishwasher is running and I have laundry going. The girls are folding their clothes while watching Narnia. And I'm taking it easy for a few minutes because scrubbing the floor wiped me out!

Childbirth class tonight. :) I debated about postponing tonight then cramming the last two classes together. But I'm feeling better and will be even more by the end of the day, so I'm going to go ahead and teach.

How are you feeling Heather? I hope you are feeling much better. I think I just had the same thing as you recently. NOT fun! :-(
