Sick Day

Today I am thankful for a sick day. Well, not really thankful, but I did take a sick day today because I am sick!

For the last ten years I've been blessed with sinus infections. I had even had a surgery in 2003 that was supposed to help limit my yearly infections. Guess it kinda did.... No matter what I do to try to prevent them, it never works. I've tried Neti pots, Tylenol, Sudafed, afrin, and every other idea people have had. Nothing. Nada.

Tuesday I started to feel the pressure in my head. At 9pm on our bus ride home from Coldwater, I was feeling worse...losing my voice. By Thursday, I coached with no voice. Thursday night was awful as I slept in the couch to not wake Josh with my cough.

This morning I took the day off and went to the doctors office. After a shot, nose spray and an antibiotic prescription, I left ready to 'enjoy' my sick day on the couch.

I am also thankful for the product below, not for it's comical commercials, but for its relief. For the past two days, it's helped me stop the cough. Mucinex works!

Today I am thankful for Mucinex and antibiotics and my sick day on the couch. Much needed rest I enjoyed today.
