Sick Day

Today my post is about that moment when you feel it…

The scratch in your throat.
It tickles.
It hurts.
I cough.
Where did it come from?

The warm air
creates chaos.
Trees and birds are confused.
Nothing feels right.

December 15th.
4AM.
It’s SIXTY degrees outside.
Sigh…


Wishing I could be cheery and write about so many other things, but I’m congested. I’m coughing and have no voice. I’m tired and I have no time to be sick…yet, here I am. Sick day. Hope you guys have a good day! Please make GOOD choices! EARN lots of PAT time today!

I’d Like to Thank… #13

Today is my 13th slice for the March Slice of Life Challenge on Two Writing Teachers.

 
That moment when you realize the headache 
that’s been plaguing you for days is finally gone!! 
 
Thank you! Thank you! Oh, thank you!
 
I don’t know where to start….
I’d like to thank my sinus medication 
for always being there for me…
oh and the neti pot! 
You really get in and get the job done! 
Thank you to one of my favorites…
the peppermint stick menthol headache relief. 
Your scent takes me away, makes my eyes water 
and you always bring me such joy! 
I couldn’t have done it without you. 
Oh, and how could I forget Excedrin Migraine. 
You’ve been with me through everything. 
I can always count on you!
 I wouldn’t be here today without you!
 
 
 
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
