My big fat flu

Well it finally got me!! I tried to avoid it as much as I could, I tried to be careful: I hid behind and under thick bed spray.  Yes, I mean the flu.

over two weeks and I was not happy! I hate being sick, as I’m sure everyone does, because there is absolutely nothing to do. You’re stuck in bed with a bunged up nose, sore throat, coughing so much it feels like you’ve done a months worth of sit-ups, hot then cold, then immediately back to hot again-no wait, cold.

I mean, I know why because no one wants to have to work, but surely you’d die of boredom. There’s only so much TV you can watch, shopping you can do, only so many times you can have the same conversation with your friends and there’s only so long you can laze around the house.

I was bored out of my mind. I was bored of the telly, bored of online shopping, I had no one to talk to because everyone was either at work and studies (the world definitely did not stop for me) and I could no longer find a comfortable position in my once comfort bed.

next issue, the question: “What’s Your Best Flu Killing Remedy?” For me it was dad's hot tea, sleep and my King of the Rhinos capsul set.

Either way, the whole two weeks made me realize how much I love being outside and love being at work and studies and how much I loved being back a Catch. I will (try to) never be at the mercy of flu again.
