It started with a cough on Tuesday (the kind of cough that makes you feel like your chest is on fire because it burns so bad) and progressed to a sore throat, body aches, headache, fever, and chills. Today I went to the urgent care, then to the pharmacy for some antibiotic relief. I'm sure things will be much better tomorrow. It'll have to be better because I've got to work tomorrow!
Sidenote: Good thing we have insurance. The pharmacist told my husband that each of my five little pills would have cost $35.00...yes EACH, if we had not had insurance coverage. Lucky for us we have good insurance. My heart goes out to those who for whatever reason do not have insurance. Our healthcare system needs a whole lota work...and I can say it because I work in it!!

awwww I hope you feel better soon. My husband is sick and his bedside table looks the same. It is no fun being sick.
Did you see the Michael Moore film Sicko?
I am in healthcare (Kim too) and couldn't agree with you more!
There was a time when Griffin's allergy and asthma meds - copays - were running us $300+ a month. And he has "good" insurance coverage too. Don't even get me started on his copays for therapy - speech, OT, and PT, all with co-pays of $40 each. It's ridiculous!
I hope you are feeling better soon! Doesn't your body realize it's Easter?
I hope you feel better! I sure have been enjoying my cute towel that you sent me!! I hope you have a great Easter!!
I hope that medicine is kicking in and you are beginning to feel better!
Thank goodness for medical insurance is right.
Happy Easter!
Goodness gracious, that's a whole lot of medicine going on by your bed. I hope it works and you feel better quickly, especially if you have to work.
$35 per pill?! That's outrageous, are they laced in gold?
Oh Linda, I hope you are feeling better soon. It stinks to feel under the weather on Easter.
Even with great insurance, we feel as though we are always being "taken" in one way or another.
Oh well... you take care of yourself.
Hope you feel better soon! Drink plenty of water.
I hope your feeling better. It sure is miserable to be sick. I hope that you, and your family had a wonderful Easter! :)
Thank you bunches for the darling jar with the bubble gum! I actually am chewing a piece right now. :) You are so thoughtful. I love the way that you package your gifts...so happy, and springy :)
Feel better soon.

I hope you are feeling better!
