I watched "the kids" a few days ago, they were home sick from school. And it caught up with me, i started feeling yucky friday afternoon, and spent most of Saturday resting and reading.
I also took my temperature every couple hours. Because if I get a fever, I can't visit mom until it's been gone 24 hours. At 88, I'm not sure what her immune system could fight.
At the same time, catching something means all of the TO DO list items get backed up. I have to make choices: vacuum or rest? Laundry or rest? Pay bills? Clean the bathroom? Change the bedding? Many chores, not enough time. If I choose a chore over rest, this whatever could last longer.
I guess I have to learn to say no.
There is too much going on. And I have to take care of me. Why is that so difficult for me??
