Sick

I was strictly confined in the bedroom all afternoon yesterday and if I did not practically beg, I would still be confined the rest of the day today.
I wasn’t allowed anywhere near my laptop nor even think about work. Warren made sure I get all the rest my overfatigued body needs. Yesterday, he sent me into our aromatherapy-filled bedroom, the pillows were propped up, curtains pulled, he had a bottle of drinking water by the bed along with a cup of calamansi juice. I slept the afternoon off and when I woke up at 6:40 in the evening, he already had the fish taken out of the freezer, ready to be popped into the microwave for dinner. Really, I have to give it to the man, he is such an excellent nurse! Thank God for him.
I was dizzy when I got up, but nothing surprised me more than when I had to run to the bathroom to throw everything I ate up. It’s been so long since I got this much sick that I almost have already forgotten what it feels like. Well, I still don’t like it, that’s for sure.

This morning, I woke up feeling wobbly but better than yesterday. Immediately, Warren set the rules, no work, no computer, no internet. I was sent into the bedroom again after breakfast. He set down a cup of Oolong tea by my side. I read the Bible and after five pages my eyes started to burn so I set it down. I sat up thinking of what could I possibly do to avoid boredom… Haaaysss.. Nothing came to mind.
So here I am, after much begging. He allowed me finally to use the net but I was still not allowed to work. He called our client to tell him I am taking the day off today and Chris agreed with him. Boys (*scoff*)!
Now, I am spending the whole Friday off from work… So I can blog and bloghop all I want today! Yipee!
Hmmm… Did I say I don’t like being sick? Oh, okay. I take that back. :p
