I've come down with a stupid cold. Yes, stupid. I never get sick, expect for that powerful cold I had in January that wiped my butt pretty bad; other than that rarity I never get sick.
Like most colds it started with the sniffles and I, like normal, blamed it on allergies. It is changing to winter around here, meaning the temperature has dropped by a degree or so - could be allergies. Unfortunately yesterday the allergies that I could live with changed into a cold that is driving me nuts. I'm not a home owner who stocks up on the essential drugs and Kleenex, I live in a residence building with no car and no easy access to these items. SO, after I used the box of Kleenex that I conveniently had I began carrying around a roll of what the residence here CLAIMS is toilet paper. It's more like really thin, white sandpaper. I'm sure I looked funny too.... walking around with a roll of toilet paper under my arm.
Lucky for me Liz had cold pills and softer toilet paper, which now the roll is half gone. The cold pills weren't so great, made of echinaccea and vit C, meaning they will kick in as soon as I'm better.
I'm hoping today will miraculously heal today although I feel worse this morning. With my nose acting up I can't sleep with the air con. so my sleep was interrupted. I'm such a baby when I'm sick....
