Home Sick

Home sick today from work. Definitely hate being at home sick on an actual work day. I'd much rather if I am going to be catching colds,flu's and sickness' etc I'd rather be getting them on my days off so I won't be losing any hours. Not that I wish it upon myself to catch anything at all, but we all know, that every now and then, that no matter how healthy we eat, we always catch something at least once or twice through out the year.
What really does suck about being sick today is the fact that all the usual things one usually has in their home for general sicknesses; I don't even have at all. No not one thing. Not even peptol bismal, soda crackers, chicken soup or gingerale. So I am really toughing this one out the cold turkey way. With no help. Well..... I did take some vitamin C's to help me a bit, but we all know that it takes more than a few vitamin c's to help cure sickness.
So, what I find at least helps take my attention away from the gut wrenching feeling of wanting to puke every few minutes is keeping busy. So I am just doing house work and tending to my wee one.
I find that allowing yourself to laze around on the couch all day letting myself get more weak then it already is will not help aid me in getting better quicker. Unless a sickness comes upon that just takes away my strength completely. Which happened to me last year. I was helpless, I couldn't even stand with out Jonathan helping me. He had to help me eat, a spoon felt too heavy for me. And bathing and sitting on the thrown required his help as well.
I am thankful that the sickness that I have now is not as bad as last year. At least I can be a bit productive. Although, I find my body is reacting to scents today and setting my body off, so certain foods and what not I need to stay away from.
Well I best be on my way and get some more things done. I am going to go boost Aaliyah and Jonathan immune system and give them some vitamin c's and some other things to at least try and prevent the sickness from spreading onto them.
