I should have updated a long time ago to let you know that if I didn't update in a week or show up at any functions I promised I would, to come looking for me and you would probably find a rotting corpse. I have been quite ill on and off since Friday night. I got a little scratchy in the throat on Friday during the day after working a few horses in the cold without a hat, gloves or scarf, and by Friday night after my family went to see a movie, I was in the throes of death. I was completely burning up, fevery, my joints ached, I couldn't walk straight, I was completely miserable. My head felt diseased, I think I actually told my parents to lop off my head and burn it so I wouldn't spread the disease anywhere else. I went home and went to bed and felt quite a bit better in the morning, which was lucky because my family was headed to a Harvest Auction that we go to every single fall. Among all the delights there was an AMAZING pumpkin cheesecake. It was like pumpkin pie combined with ecstasy! It was brilliant, and took my mind off of feeling poorly. We were there for a few hours, but I was completely exhausted and weak once we got home so I hit the sack for about five hours, and then, of course, felt better when I got up. I had a lot of soup and a lot of water because I was feeling slightly pukey and I didn't want big chunkies (eewwww), and then I finally went to bed. I woke up Sunday feeling absolutely miserable, like someone was stabbing my throat with big knives, so I called in sick.. Of course after a few hours I felt better, so I made the mistake of getting out of bed again, to travel in the car for about three hours to pick up our new old pet, and then was down for the count again when I got home. I couldn't, of course, take any more care time, because they are nazi's where I work, so I was at work yesterday but I was hurting so badly and it was so busy and everyone was so rude that I am sure I recall saying, when one gentleman stated he would never use budget and we had lost a customer "No problem, thanks for calling." and hung up on him. Grrr.
