I get to talk to the kiddos every weekend now :D Last night my fever shot up to nearly 104 :sick I got it down and went to bed. I have some antibiotics I am taking now, and ibuprofen for the fever...conventional meds :/ I do feel a bit better since taking them though, my throat is still pretty nasty and making it hard to swallow :( Hopefully this will be over soon. I hate being sick. As is though, I'll be in the couch today :barnie

Well, I'm still alive :lol: I'm STILL sick, but still have a pulse. I think it's strep :sick It hit hard the other night so I didn't even get on here last night. I was too busy fighting a fever. I am on a round of antibiotics for the first time in years and some ibuprofen for pain. Hopefully this will knock it all out. I have not been outside much in the last couple days :( I did somehow find the energy to start more bell peppers and banana peppers yesterday and take them out to the mom cave. I have spent maybe a half hour in there over the last 2 days :hit I miss being healthy :lol:

I have so much I need to be doing....that I can't right now..maybe tomorrow I'll be better enough to get out there and get some things did. I have NO energy right now, but the antibiotics are helping. I must've had a pretty mean infection. I have no fever this morning, but it has ran 102+ for the last couple days.

Anyway enough of the sickies talk :p

Tomorrow, God willing, I'm going to go down and landscape the neighbors yard, plant my shrubs here, and rearrange some fences and such. DH is tilling part of the garden spot today, so I will have peas, broccoli, and cabbage to start tomorrow. Lettuce, spinach, carrots, and potatoes are already in the greenhouse. I have a few more taters to plant though, so may go ahead with those too. I may get some more taters and get them going. We like taters around here ;)

Well that's MY plans. Hope everyone else is having a productive week!!!

I heard a remedy that has worked for some - soak in a hot bath with a pound of salt and a pound of baking soda. Seems like a lot, but hey, I'd try it! A hot bath can also help add more heat to the fever which is fighting the infection.

Let me know if you try it and how it works! Next time I am sick like that I plan to!!

:hugs

Feel better and take care of yourself! I hope you can get some sunshine!!
