How on earth is it possible that I can be so sore today despite not having done anything particularly active this week?
Sure, I’ve taken CootieBoy to the pool a couple of times, but is playing with him in the water enough to make my right upper arm, upper AND lower back, left hip and left ankle get stiff and sore like this?
It probably didn’t help that once again I fell asleep on the sofa watching Disc 1 of “Serenity” and only woke up at 4:30 a.m. when Denis came downstairs to get a drink. But still, if I sit in my chair for longer than 10 minutes without standing up and moving around, then I get really stiff and it hurts to move.
Also, Denis hasn’t been feeling well this week and is also stiff and sore but he also had a mild fever last night.
And the kids are COVERED in mosquito bites after playing in the backyard a few days ago when the rain cleared out. There are red welts all over their legs and CootieBoy has two big bites on his chest as well.
So basically the Cootie family is one big mess on this fine Friday.
One, it was no MILD fever. Two, despite waking up this morning feeling like I was on the mend, by mid-day, I’m back to feeling crappy again. Fever, aches and all. Three, I hope you aren’t catching what I have. Not fun. I’ve had this for most of the week and it isn’t going away any time soon. Feel better.
The strange thing is … two of our bankers got back from Memphis yesterday and both of them are complaining fo aches and painsa dna general feeling of *sickness*.
Marmie and Pop are laid low this week, too.
What is going on?
I’m staying away. Far. Far. Away. *making a cross with my crossed fingers*
