And now...

Well, I'm sick. I came home from work and I feel like shit. My throat is scratchy, my head is wavy, and my body is shaky. I am bundled up in a blanket and I have my slippers on. So, why am I sitting here typing?

I called Healthlink. The matter isn't as serious as "Hospital! Now!" I will monitor my fluids for a few hours. If there is no change, then I go to the hospital. The nurse on the phone gave me this formula for electrolyte fluid.
1 Cup boiling water
a pinch of salt
1 Tsp of Sugar
A drop or two of lemon juice to taste.
And then drink.

Great. Sounds awful.
I don't want to. But it is sitting here waiting for me to try it. Here it goes.
(drink)
Hmmm....it's like water with sugar. Sugary water...eeehhh...Too sweet. Water should taste like water. This is wrong. But, I'll drink it. What the hell!

So, send little guy some prayers of encouragement and mom-to-be too!
