It seems that my plan of laying like broccoli for the bulk of the weekend has paid of in that, while I still feel like crud on a cracker, the nastiness has limited itself to my sinuses and has not (as of yet) traveled south to my poor weary bronchial tubes.

Work today was rough. On the way home I stopped at the supermarket to pick up a few things and picked up some over-the-counter meds for myself – a super duper expectorant to loosen up the gunk in my sinuses and a nasal decongestant spray so I could actually breathe.

I came home, dosed myself, heated up dinner for the family and some soup for myself and we all settled down and watched Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

The combination of meds, hot soup, time with my girls, and some good giggles seems to have worked wonders and I think I may actually beat this bug without needing to go to the Doctor or go on another round of super-duper antibiotics.

Which means that things are looking promising for the coming weekend and another try for a make-up birthday for Gamer Dude. Huzzah!

Off to spend some time with him, some ice cream, and slightly more adult TV viewing.

Blessings
