Get pneumonia. Yep...what I thought was just another cold landed me in the hospital this weekend with pneumonia. After tons ofs drugs, today is the first day I can stay upright for more than 5 minutes (although I am quickly wearing out here).Being a Type A workaholic, this is driving me nuts. It's budget time at work and I can't do anything....3 more days until I'm "allowed" to go to work. That's not to say I'm not going to sneakily work from home tomorrow (yep, today I am sleeping).
I will be cooking next week....promise promise promise. I haven't eaten anything more complicated than toast the past 5 days - great way to shed 5 pounds and fit into that Xmas party dress!
Oh Cathy.. wish I were closer to bring you some soup and a few shots of Baileys.
ReplyDeleteFeel better my cyberfriend!!
Hey I'm an 'A' too : ) ...so glad that is a silver lining around your grey cloud : ) ... oh being pregnant and enduring the first tri-mester of severe morning sickness is another way to loose weight ( although you gain it all back in the 2nd and 3rd trimester :(...
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you had gotten sick. so sorry to hear you landed in the hospital. Hope you feel better soon...hey workaholic, don't push it or you'll be worse off!!
ReplyDelete{{HUGS}}}
Hope you get well soon. Don't rush with the work though, if you need sleep, you need sleep.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better soon! Although, great you lost 5-lbs but, not the way to go. Get some rest!!! The blogging world will be here upon your return. :-)
ReplyDeleteDonna - I know I'm sick when the thought of the bailey's makes me want to hurl still.
ReplyDeleteNat - ugh...ok..pregnancy puking may trump this ;)
Katherine - thx..already did a bit too much this morning I think.
Taste - haha...don't rush with work...for the hours and hours that will be there when I go back.
Thx Karen!
Velva - no, not the best way to lose weight, but I'll take it.
Oh no! That's terrible, but I'm glad you are doing better. Make sure that you get your rest! Work will always be there so your health should be the #1 priority.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon, but don't hurry too much. Work CAN wait.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter's got the flu, fortunately she's starting to feel better, cause I've been going nuts waiting on the little princess.
well, the weight lose is good news, but the bad news, almost all water weight that will come back before Xmas...
ReplyDeleteSo, drink fluids as soon as possible, hot soups (Mom was right), and whiskey (Nyquil with just a bit less medicine)... Oh yeah, add some honey to the whiskey if you must
Eep! No fun. :(
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon.
So that is why this chef of an accountant was away! :) Good to see you back girlie. Do take rest and meanwhile keep up your humorous posts coming. They are equally delectable :)
ReplyDeleteyikes! get well soon, and listen to the doctor! if youdon't rest you won't recover as fast.
ReplyDeleteWhoa...Donna has Baileys and she's willing to come over..and I'm willing to come over...so that's a party, yeah?!
ReplyDeleteI am currently on muscle relaxants and I could share with you...seriously though, I am so sorry you are under the weather. I will sedn you funny emails from work tomorrow!
Awww, so sorry to hear about the pneumonia. Take very good care of yourself and just relax and take it easy! Hope you feel better, soon!
ReplyDeletePalidor - I've never been good with the work will wait thing.
ReplyDeleteDajana - hope your daughter is feeling better!
Dave - now now...don't burst my bubble with the weight loss :) I'll try the shot of whiskey when I can stomach the thought of anything
Thx Natashya!
Jhonny - when I feel funny I'll be back at it ;)
Melissa - rest it was all day today :)
Pierce - get on the plane mon cherie!
Marguerite - Thx for the well wishes!
Oh my God, Cathy! This is horrible! I'm glad you're out of the hospital - know how horrid that is, trust me - and that you are slowly mending. BE GOOD TO YOURSELF!!!! Take care, and come back to blogging when you're ready!
ReplyDeleteOkay - so I didn't go to work today so...you'll have to wait until tomorrow. I took prescription drugs and I'm not driving! Husband is in Tampa so I can't ride in with him. Oh well........
ReplyDeleteYou ARE in my thoughts though.
Thanks Wandering - I feel a lot better today!
ReplyDeletePierce - I hope you feel better soon too :( Looking forward to the funny jokes!
I totally hear you on the "sick diet." I had food poisoning this week, and that was good for 3.4 lbs. Hope you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteYuck Cate - hope you feel better quickly too!!! I'm hoping to keep the 5 pounds off - I feel pretty freaking skinny today :)
