The flu kicked my butt for 4 days last week, no thanks to the flu shot that I got in October.
I had a fever that got up to 103 several times, and even after Advil, it only got down to 101.
I was cold, shivering, sweating, coughing, and an all around beauty to behold.
But I must admit – I secretly enjoyed the nasty little virus.
Why?
I got to lie in bed for 4 days.
I watched television non-stop that didn’t consist of cartoon characters or silly grown men talking to puppets.
And I SLEPT.
WHENEVER I FELT LIKE IT.
Oh, to go back to that place of fever-induced hallucinogenic dreams and a total weight loss of 2 pounds.
(I must thank my husband who took care of Monkey Man like a good Daddy while I was sick. It was because of him that I was able to curl up in bed and recover from the flu that I paid $20 to not get.)

not nice having flu, even worse when you have had a flu jab and then get the flu!
don't do too much to soon OK
Just like I have to tell people about K9 Cough. The vaccine isn't 100% effective, there are various strains...blah blah blah
Sorry you were sick and glad you are better.
=)
